Storm impact SFO Sunday 10/24

Fri Oct 22, 2021 8:23 am

Hi fellow anetters,

I'm flying out of SFO on Sunday late at night. I've been reading reports about a large storm moving into the Bay Area on Sunday with 2-3 inches of rain and winds of 20-30kt expected.

How big of a disruption can this cause in SFO ops? I need to be somewhere else on Monday afternoon, so would airlines rebook passengers preventively if I gave them a call?

Any info/previous experience appreciated.

Depends on the airline and whether or not they have a weather advisory

If you bought your ticket directly from a U.S. carrier this could be very easy. As mentioned, check (online) for a weather waiver. If one is posted, see if you can rebook in the app. Good apps will recognize waivers of fare rules and routing rules if allowed by the weather waiver.
