Taoyuan International Airport is bracing for flight disruptions in early October due to Typhoon Krathon and military airshows for Republic of China National Day. A response center is in place following a sea warning, and passengers are advised to stay informed about potential schedule changes. Flight schedules will be affected during military rehearsals and airshows on Oct. 2 and 4 (6 a.m. to 8 a.m.), Oct. 6 (1 p.m. to 5 p.m.), and Oct. 10 (8 a.m. to noon). While Air Force aircraft will not land at Taoyuan, their flight paths could influence incoming and outgoing flights, with peak disruptions anticipated on Oct. 6 during busy travel times. To reduce impact, the airport plans to adjust or cancel routine operations and is coordinating with the Civil Aviation Administration (CAA) to improve air traffic control. Airlines are urged to increase fuel loads on incoming flights, and similar disruptions are expected at Taipei's Songshan Airport on the same dates. #AsiaRisk #ExtremeWeatherEvents #Taiwan Follow us for daily updates on risk and operations in Asia! https://lnkd.in/gsuwvTYX

✈️ ARE AIRPLANES SAFE AT THE AIRPORT DURING A TYPHOON? 🌪 The answer is yes! Super Typhoon Yagi was one of the strongest storms to hit Vietnam in the past 30 years, generating winds of up to Level 14-15 (150-160 km/h) and gusts reaching Level 17. Before the typhoon made landfall, Vietnam Airlines Engineering Company (VAECO) conducted precautionary measures to protect the aircraft at affected airports: 1️⃣ Securing the aircraft and covering its critical components with protective sheets to shield them from strong winds. 2️⃣ Using 2.5-ton concrete blocks to chock the aircraft wheels, thereby reducing movement under strong wind conditions. 3️⃣ Filling an aircraft's fuel tanks located inside the wings to increase the aircraft's weight, thereby stabilizing it and mitigating the impact of adverse weather. 🛠 Aircraft undergoing maintenance are moved into hangars to protect them from the typhoon. 💙 We understand that protecting the aircraft means ensuring safety for our passengers. Vietnam Airlines is committed to maintaining the highest level of safety during severe weather. #VietnamAirlines #CherishEveryMile

Planes making a huge deviation due to Typhoon Gaemi, and at the same time taking advantage of it since they follow the storm's rotation (counter-clockwise in the Northern Hemisphere), creating a slingshot effect since it's a tailwind, saving flight time and fuel as well. Additionally, you can see a pretty quiet Philippine airspace below since most domestic flights are delayed or cancelled due to weather. Most domestic airports in PH are under VFR.

https://lnkd.in/d-CJtS7Y I had the pleasure of talking to #DavidHundeyin about how unsafe Nigeria and it's airspace is while having no functional radar receptor or detecting system. Why would aircrafts turn off transponders and fly into Nigeria's airspace undetected? Who are the people or what are the cargoes on board? How well can Nigeria defend itself from air assaults? How safe is the country? These are the questions and David shared his thots.

I wish we didn't live in such a capitalistic society most times. I wish that airlines could facilitate evacuations.... for example: if you're under an evac order, your flight out of the area is a nominal fee, and your return flight, to the same airport, is $100 (or less?) within, say, a 21 day window. I hear and see so many people say that they can't evacuate because they have no where to go, or that family is too far. imagine the literal life saving measure this could be. Work on it, airlines.

In the last 48 hours, multiple bomb threats targeting flights have surfaced, with some even diverting planes and causing significant delays. While many of these threats may turn out to be hoaxes, they must still be treated with utmost seriousness. Safety protocols, emergency landings, and thorough investigations ensure the safety of passengers and crew. These disruptions highlight the delicate balance aviation authorities maintain between caution and efficiency. Every unverified threat strains resources and impacts operations, but the priority remains clear—safety first. It's a necessary precaution in an increasingly unpredictable world. #aviation #aviationnews #AirIndia #airtravel

A brilliant case study that underlines the benefit of compliance by all role players, from the designers of the aircraft, the passengers and regular training of air stewards. Share Message - Japan jet crash: How crew pulled off flawless evacuation from plane inferno https://lnkd.in/dK5USHg6

Many carriers have implemented various surcharges, including General Rate Increases (GRI), Peak Season Surcharges (PSS), and war risk surcharges, affecting sailings scheduled for Q1 2024.
