How does severe weather affect Austin?

When is the best time to fly from Austin?

Late autumn (October-November) and winter offer calmer conditions. Spring (March-May) brings peak severe weather season. Summer is hot with afternoon storms. Morning flights face fewer weather delays than afternoon departures during storm season.

Is turbulence at Austin dangerous?

No. Modern aircraft are designed to withstand forces far stronger than turbulence. While bumps can feel uncomfortable, they do not pose a safety risk. Pilots actively avoid rough air whenever possible. Learn more about turbulence

Best seats to reduce turbulence when flying from Austin?

Seats near the wings feel the least movement because they are closest to the aircraft's center of gravity. Seats at the back of the aircraft feel turbulence more strongly. Learn more about seat selection
