I was watching the weather radar anticipating having to batten down the hatches. There was indeed some very heavy stuff around both north and south of us (moving west to east), but we escaped.....this time!

Same happens, frequently, on ferry routes. It happened more than you think for the Hovercrafts. They had a wind & swell limit. I was a pax on a just under the 'limit' day. The smell in the cabin was horrendous and the crossing was 3 times the norm. We puckered up and refused to join the sea-sick brigade. Couldn't let the side down, could we.
I see at my local major hub the local national carrier cancels flights due to high winds. The problem they anticipate/expect is that 2 landing runway schedules, of different direction, will be reduced to 1 and hence lengthy delays for the departures of the inbounds. Unfortunately for the victim pax that's life. The airlines like to have crews & a/c in the correct places for the next wave.

Our Easyjet flight was delayed by 1hr 45m from Nice to Bristol last night due to the weather along with the Liverpool flight. Both flights boarded and moved to remote stands whilst we waited for another slot from Euro control. Water was freely handed out!
