What should I do if the special ticket encounters weather and the flight is delayed?

If the special ticket is delayed due to weather, it can be returned and changed. The weather reasons for flight delay are generally low visibility, snowfall, ice accumulation and strong wind. If it is light rain, it will not affect the flight, and it is not only sunny days that can fly.

First, special fares can be refunded and changed.

From July 2065438 to July 2008, CAAC issued the Notice on Improving Civil Aviation Ticketing Service, which regulated airlines to improve their charging system and services from five aspects. In particular, it is required to formulate a "ladder rate" for ticket refund and change fees, and it is not possible to simply stipulate that all special fares cannot be refunded and changed.

Taking the four major domestic airlines as an example, the time division standard of ladder rates of China Eastern Airlines and Hainan Airlines is the same as that of China Southern Airlines. More than 7 days before the departure of the flight, the refund fee is 65438+ 00% of the full fare, and the change fee is 5%. However, during the 7-2 days before departure, the refund rate is different. During this period, the refund rate of China Eastern Airlines was 20%, and the change rate was 15%, which was 5% lower than that of China Southern Airlines.

Second, the weather caused flight delays.

The weather reasons for flight delays are generally low visibility, snowfall, ice accumulation and strong winds. Among many weather phenomena, thunderstorm weather is the most influential and we are most concerned about it. Some meteorological phenomena, such as low visibility and strong winds, may affect the normal take-off and landing of aircraft and need special attention.

The weather phenomenon that has the greatest influence on the operation of aircraft in winter is rain and snow, mainly before and after the rain and snow in winter in the north, and aircraft may encounter ice accumulation during operation.
