How to Deal with Airline Disruptions Due to Hurricanes and Severe Storms

The airline safety and security web site AirSafe.com provides passengers with instructions on how to deal with travel disruptions due to hurricane activity, including audio and video podcasts.
 
Sept. 12, 2008 - PRLog -- When hurricanes or tropical storms threaten the Gulf or Atlantic coastal areas of the US, passengers across the country may be affected by delayed, canceled, and rerouted flights even in areas far from the storms. Passengers can keep storm problems from seriously affecting their travel plans by following the advice provided by AirSafe.com

On rare occasions, a hurricane may threaten a city the way that hurricane Ike is currently threatening Houston and Galveston. However, hurricanes and tropical storms frequently strike the US, and many of them may affect air travel for one or more days. If you plan to travel by air when a hurricane or tropical storm threatens to strike land, you should take the time to do the following:

 * Check with your airline to see if your flight is affected
 * Check the airline's web site to see if they are posting special notices about the storm
 * Keep track of storm forecasts
 * Be prepared to have your flight delayed, rerouted, or canceled
