Fewer Future Fliers May Be Stranded Because of Better Weather Forecasting and Better Planning by the Airlines

Greetings from Mobile Generated News® MoGN!

Despite the terrible weather hitting the East and the South, weather forecasters and airlines are learning how to deal with cancellations and delays as a result of this record storm season.  New technology is helping forecasters make better predictions and the airlines are learning to use Social Media, Text Alerts and emails to communicate with their passengers more effectively.

Although some 77,000 flights havebeen cancelled and 43-million people have been affected by flight delays, the airlines are becoming more proactive by cancelling more flights to minimize delays.  Airlines are also cancelling flights early to avoid federal fines for keeping passengers stranded.

Social Media and New Technology are once again linked to improve situations even when bad weather strikes. Using the MoGN App to upload weather video and still images is a way to communicate to local news organizations what’s happening in your local area.
