@British_Airways Assisting them by saying you have to stay 2 days in Abu Dhabi with no other options and not even a confirmed return flight yet! Why canโt you book customers on alternative routes via Doha, Bahrain and Dubai.
@aviationbrk@DJSnM Hi Scott, Canโt seem to get a professional airline pilot to comment on this.trying to work out if flying through area or sigmetโed turbulence is normal (like getting passengers to buckle up and ride it out) or should this be considered in planning and new routes taken.
@TheSkalman@aviationbrk It was quite a northernly track for MIA, really interested to talk to planners and pilots on the event, maybe routes would never be changed for this type of weather and itโs just a case of usually buckling up but this was a significantly patch of turbulence.
@FlyingGasmask@aviationbrk Just wanting to learn more about this really and get opinions. Is it standard to procedure to just follow the flight path or do airlines route round weather like this.
