Weekly info & tips to help beat a fear-of-flying AND a free eBook 📖

Is a winter flight sitting on your mind?

Snow on the forecast. Closed runways on the news. Queues at the airport. And now that trip you were already nervous about feels like a bad idea.

Here’s what nobody tells you: winter flights are often smoother than summer ones. Summer brings the rising warm air and thunderstorms that cause most turbulence. Winter has far less of both. And the delays you see on the news are the system working slowly and carefully on purpose, not the system struggling.

Captain Simon Belmont has spent 30+ years inside aviation - as an RAF and airline pilot, engineer, trainer, and Director of Airline Operations. In this last position he sat on the other side of those decisions, before returning to flying as a Captain on the Airbus A350. In this guide, he takes you behind the scenes of winter flying and shows you how much preparation sits behind every snowy departure.

10 chapters covering: How Airlines Use ‘Playbooks’ to Prepare, How Airports Are Equipped for Winter, Can Planes Fly Safely in Snow and Ice, Why Winter Flights Can Be Smoother Than Summer, Diversion and Alternate Airports, How Jet Engines Stay Reliable in Freezing Conditions, What About Visibility During Heavy Snow, Is the Weather Ever Too Bad to Fly, What You Can Do to Make Your Journey Stress-Free and What Happens After a Major Snowstorm.
