How to compensate for the flight delay caused by weather?

Legal subjectivity:

The law does not stipulate this, but the relationship between passengers and airlines is a civil legal relationship of air passenger transportation. Flight delay is regarded as airline breach of contract. Delays caused by weather can be used as an exemption for airlines. Article 584 Scope of Damages of the Civil Code of People's Republic of China (PRC) If one party fails to perform its contractual obligations or fails to meet the contract obligations, thus causing losses to the other party, the amount of compensation for the losses shall be equivalent to the losses caused by the breach of the contract, including the benefits that can be obtained after the performance of the contract; However, it shall not exceed the losses that the breaching party foresaw or should have foreseen when concluding the contract.
