Will rain affect the normal take-off of the plane?

Generally, planes can take off normally in rainy days.

If it doesn't rain heavily, it won't affect the take-off of modern civil aviation planes. The reason why the flight can't take off normally is because of the cumulonimbus clouds in the sky or the strong convective weather in the air.

In case of moderate rain or light rain, the plane usually takes off normally. If it rains, the runway visual range cannot reach the minimum value, the runway water depth exceeds 3 mm, and there are strong and low-altitude wind shear, thunderstorm or downburst, cumulonimbus clouds, etc. The plane can't take off normally.

You can't take off in rainy weather, because the plane is a metal fuselage, which is easy to attract lightning and affect the safety of passengers. Heavy rain may cause the engine to stall; So, don't worry when the plane stops taking off because of the weather. This is also for the safety of passengers. Choosing high-speed rail for the same travel mode can avoid the loss caused by delay.

Precautions for flight:

Be sure to check in half an hour before the plane takes off. Therefore, it is best to arrive at the airport in advance according to the situation, especially when there are many people during the Golden Week and Spring Festival. Some airports are very strict, so they are not allowed to do it when the time comes, such as Beijing airport. Friends who like window seats can ask the handlers to arrange window seats for you when changing boarding passes.

When checking luggage, some airports will charge insurance premiums, such as Fuzhou Airport. If your suitcase is unlocked, some airports will force you to spend money to buy a small lock, such as Guangzhou airport. You'd better check the fruit knife in your luggage when you bring it, otherwise 90% may be confiscated.

In addition, small animals can't be brought on the plane, and they can only be checked with quarantine certificates, which is very troublesome. Potted plants and flowers are ok. The check-in certificate is usually attached to the ticket. After the luggage arrives and is taken out, a staff member will check whether the check-in certificate corresponds to the label on the luggage. Be careful not to take someone else's and lose yours.
