On February 3, due to heavy snowfall, Wuhan Tianhe International Airport experienced a large-scale flight delay, of which China Southern Airlines canceled a total of 105 flights in Wuhan. We urgently launched the joint response plan for severe weather of ice and snow, mobilized de-icing vehicles in a timely manner, and actively ensured the safe operation of flights. However, due to the continuous snowfall, the de-icing time of the aircraft has been greatly extended, and the number of de-icing flights is too large, resulting in the long-term delay of some flights, and some of the flights were forced to cancel due to the closure of the runway ice, which caused passengers the inconvenience, we apologize! We will pay close attention to weather changes, continue to strengthen communication and coordination, improve passenger service guarantee, and ensure the safe travel of passengers during the Spring Festival.
According to the China Weather Network, at present, the largest range of rain, snow and freezing weather in the mainland since 2009 is still in the strongest period. Affected by it, on February 4, many high-speed railways in Hubei, Hunan, Chongqing and other places were suspended or delayed, and more than 1,000 high-speed toll stations across the country were closed, which had a great impact on the pre-holiday Spring Festival travel. However, from tonight, Hunan, Hubei, Anhui and other places will usher in a short intermission of rain and snow, reminding relevant departments to clear snow and melt ice in a timely manner, and the public still needs to do a good job of anti-skid and cold protection.
