Can the plane fly normally in foggy weather?

If the visibility meets the minimum departure conditions of the airport, the flight can still take off normally. If visibility is extremely low, the airport needs to be closed and flights cannot take off and land.

When the water vapor in the lower atmosphere is saturated, the water vapor condensate is suspended in the air to form foggy weather, and the horizontal distance of visibility is less than 500 meters. The visibility of aircraft take-off requires at least 600 meters, and the landing requirements of aircraft are even higher than the take-off requirements. Therefore, for the safety of passengers, the plane will only take off when the weather is seaworthy.

Due to poor visibility in foggy days, it is difficult for aircraft to take off and land, otherwise it may cause accidents. According to statistics, among the 245 serious weather-related flight accidents during 195 1-1985, 47 were affected by visibility, reaching 19.2%, second only to low clouds.

Measures that can be taken after the aircraft takes off delay;

Refund or countersign. Keep abreast of flight dynamics after arriving at the airport. It is suggested that we can know where the plane is and infer the approximate departure time. We can wait patiently if the delay is acceptable.

Know your rights. Passengers with delayed flights should enjoy three rights: the right to know, the right to choose and the right to claim compensation. The right to know means that passengers have the right to get detailed information as soon as possible after the flight delay, so as to know the subsequent progress in time so as to make a reasonable choice.
