- What Wind Gusts Cancel Flights?
Strong wind gusts can be dangerous for flying commercial aircraft, as they can cause turbulence and cause the aircraft to be unstable. Therefore, flights can be cancelled for wind gusts over 40 mph. Pilots may also not be able to land the aircraft safely in higher winds, so if the wind gusts exceed limits set by airlines, flights will be cancelled as a matter of safety.
