• When do they cancel flights for snow?

Airlines may cancel flights due to snow if it's unsafe to operate. Factors they consider include the amount of snowfall, visibility, and de-icing availability. Flight cancellations typically occur when snow is forecast to reach 6 inches or more and visibility is reduced to a quarter mile or less. Severe weather, such as snow and blizzards, could cause a significant number of flight cancellations and delays. Airline customers should anticipate potential cancellations and be prepared to adjust their travel plans accordingly.
