Do they cancel flights for rain?

Last updated on April 25, 2023

Yes, airlines may cancel flights due to rain. Heavy rain can reduce visibility making it unsafe for planes to take off or land. Additionally, high winds may make it difficult for planes to take off or land, so even light rain can cause flight cancellations. Weather conditions are constantly monitored and flight decisions are based on a combination of conditions and safety.
