Imagine you’re all set for your flight, and then—bam! Your plane gets diverted to a completely different destination. Annoying? Absolutely! But who’s to blame? ER Serbia and their pilot Borko Ilić say it’s all about the weather chaos!
Weather is the number one culprit behind flight diversions. Fierce thunderstorms, strong winds, turbulence, flooded runways, and even snow drifts can make landing unsafe. Ilić, captain of the ATR 72-600 and flight safety officer, explains that these conditions are so serious that diverting flights is often unavoidable.
But wait, there’s more! Sometimes flights get diverted due to medical emergencies onboard or air traffic control requests. Not fun, but safety comes first.
Just imagine how frustrating it is for passengers who planned their vacation or business trip, only to end up somewhere unexpected. But hey, better safe than sorry!
Next time ER Serbia tells you your flight is diverted, remember it’s because of wild storms and unpredictable weather. And maybe, just maybe, give a little thanks to the pilots and controllers keeping you safe.
