Is it safe to fly on a rainy day?

It is dangerous to fly on a rainy day, but it will not affect the flight.

1. As long as there are no thunderclouds on the route. Because such clouds contain a large amount of electrical energy, they may pose a threat to flight safety. However, in this case, the airport and control tower will let the aircraft fly around the thunderstorm clouds or delay takeoff to ensure flight safety.

2. If the intensity of rainfall is small, it will not affect engine performance and visual conditions. If precipitation causes: the runway visual range cannot reach the minimum value, the runway area water exceeds 3mm, there is strong low-altitude wind shear, there are thunderstorms, downbursts or cumulonimbus and other important weather phenomena that directly affect the airport environment, then the aircraft It cannot take off.

Things to note when flying:

1. Arrive at the airport 1-2 hours in advance. Generally speaking, because the airport is so big, the process from arriving at the airport to checking in and boarding the plane is quite time-consuming. It also takes quite a while to walk before boarding the plane. Moreover, flights are rarely delayed. In order to avoid missing the plane, you must arrive at the airport in advance.

2. Do not carry items that cannot be carried according to regulations. For example, large-capacity power banks, large-capacity liquid items, lighters and other dangerous items are not allowed.
