Here are a few of Johnny Jet’s tips on how to survive these travel nightmares:

Research

I don’t leave home without knowing the weather where I am and where I’m going – including at layover airports. I use Weather.com as well as and this handy traveler’s weather page I made that even includes the turbulence forecast.

Check With The Airline

If there’s a huge storm forcing mass cancellations, I check with the airline to see if they’ve adjusted their change policies due to the weather so I can rebook without a penalty and fly when there won’t be any hassles.

Check the FAA’s (Federal Aviation Administration) Flight Delay Information – Air Traffic Control System Command Center. It lists general airport conditions at the US’s top 40 major airports
