Just booked to Mexico (Cozumel) for the first two weeks of Sept - then remember that it's hurricane season. Not only that but the NHC are predicting a more active than usual year, and the statistical peak of hurricane activity is Sept 10 - bang in the middle of our hols !
Now. I love flying and once upon a time was a wannabe (failed medical), but as the years advance I'm finding myself starting to get a little nervous about it - especially trans-oceanic longhaul.
What's the score re flying and hurricanes ? - is it down to the flight deck crew entirely, or is there any pressure from the company to minimise the size of the diversion ? ...just looking for a little reassurance ! :)
