Title: Weather, punctuality and location... related?
Post by: NorgeFly on February 04, 2010, 12:03:06 AM
I have been wondering whether or not where your airline has it's hub has any impact on the amount of weather related delays and cancellations? Also, does this vary with season?

I'm based in Oslo and most of my routes are in Norway and it's winter (in game) and a large proportion (75%) of my delays and cancellations are attributed to weather... is this because of where I am based?

Anyone spotted any trends?

Yes, both season and location do affect on wx delays...

So if I am based in the UAE it is quite likely I'll never have any delay caused by bad weather? :-D
