Today, it rained heavily in Beijing. This time, it's a little heavier. Many friends in Beijing started making fun of it online. Will this heavy rain affect everyone's travel? Let's take a look at the weather in Beijing with the editor.

Weather conditions

The precipitation (mm) released by the Municipal Meteorological Observatory from 6:00 to 15:00 on the 2nd: 0.9 in the city, 0.1 in the urban area, 0.6 in the northeast, 0.5 in the southwest, 2.8 in the northwest, and southeast 0.2, urban Chaoyang Capital Airport 1.4, Yanqing Dongjiagou 22.3, the largest in the city.

The reporter learned that although the weather was sunny at the beginning of this week, it will be muggy at the end. Thunderstorms are expected from the 5th to the 6th, and the temperature will drop slightly, around 34, but the humidity will increase and the feeling of mugginess will be strong. In addition, due to the overall high temperature these days, the air convection near the ground is very violent, and such weather may still occur in the afternoon. Everyone should pay attention to the forecast issued by the meteorological department in a timely manner. Generally, local convective weather does not last long. If you encounter it suddenly, you can take shelter nearby.

:Will it affect travel?

. It is recommended to check the weather forecast before traveling.

If your flight changes, you can get "fleece" from some airlines and ticketing websites. When a flight is delayed, passengers can seek help as quickly as possible. If a flight is delayed or canceled due to the carrier's own reasons (maintenance, flight deployment, crew), passengers can receive compensation. Judging from the compensation standards announced by 42 domestic airlines, if a flight is delayed for more than 4 hours, most airlines will provide passengers with financial compensation ranging from 100 yuan to 400 yuan.

It should be reminded that according to the "Normal Flight Management Regulations", if a flight is delayed or canceled due to weather, emergencies, air traffic control, security inspection and other non-carrier reasons, the carrier is responsible for assisting passengers in arranging meals. Food and accommodation are provided at the passenger's own expense. When traveling on rainy days, ticketing websites also provide a lot of "wool" in terms of services. For example, Ctrip not only provides assistance with ticket refunds and ticket changes, but also introduces "package" protection measures such as flight and alcohol guarantees. The official website explains: Tongcheng’s air tickets and hotels are all booked through Ctrip. If the flight change affects the day you can't check in, you can cancel the hotel for free. In other words, when flight delays have an impact on subsequent itineraries, there is no need to worry about losing hotel orders.

In addition, the App will also intelligently recommend train or bus tickets for querying and booking related routes, allowing passengers to book with one click without having to splice and combine their own itineraries.

When the delay is long, some passengers will choose to change their tickets. However, due to the large number of delayed flights and the large concentration of passengers requesting to change their flights within a short period of time, it may take too long or even be unsuccessful. Shao Jihong, senior director of the air ticket business department of Ctrip.com, suggested that if you are in a hurry to travel, passengers can apply for a refund first, regardless of the loss of the original refund; waiting until the weather improves or the current restrictions end, and then rebooking tickets will be more efficient. Passengers with urgent travel needs can experience the "1-hour flight channel" service. As long as there are vacancies on the flight, even one hour before the flight takes off, passengers can check in directly with their IDs as long as they successfully book their tickets. On the other hand, Fei Changzhun once said that "early flights" departing from 7 to 10 o'clock have the highest punctuality rate if calculated in days. In other words, it is safer to choose an "early flight" when traveling in the rainy season. Take Shanghai Airlines as an example. The on-time rate for departure at seven o'clock is as high as 97%, but after eleven o'clock it is around 70%.

Flights canceled

According to the forecast of the North China Air Traffic Control Meteorological Center, by 20:00 today, there will still be thundershowers and precipitation in the Beijing terminal area, which will intermittently affect flight operations. Due to thunderstorms, the flight plan of Capital Airport has changed a lot today. North China Air Traffic Control would like to remind passengers that they can obtain flight information through multiple channels and arrange their travel plans reasonably.
