What's going on in Cancun?

The past 2 weeks or so, nearly every flight from Cancun to MAN has been delayed around 24 hours, no matter which airline or aircraft. Can anyone tell me what’s going on over there? :confused: 🙂

From what I can gather, most flights are starting to get back to normal.

Noticed this morning that BY422 into Manchester (the flight that I was on 3 weeks ago) was due in just over 2 days late. After that, most flights seemed to be running to time.

Ah, thought it may have something to do with the weather.

Left to ride it out in the airport or provided with hotels?

Or provided with a liferaft or other floatation device. There’s going to be some serious flooding in Mexico. The Mexico City airport can’t even handle a moderate rain shower as the runway braking goes to “nil” real quick.

I believe so,
I was speaking to a captain who flies for a charter airline, sent me an e-mail from Miami where he and other crews had been sent to ride out the storm. Positioned back to Cancun on Tuesday night and flew home after min rest. Noticed them on telext arrivals for MAN and GLA.
What happens the holidays makers though? Left to ride it out in the airport or provided with hotels?
