Do your airlines have any specific rules or criteria for avoiding forecasted severe turbulence during dispatch? E.g, is there a maximum duration or a threshold where avoiding becomes mandatory?
I’m asking specifically in the context of large areas of forecasted severe turbulence over the NAT, where avoidance might come with a significant time and cost.
Of course, I understand safety always comes first, but I also know that in some cases, airlines may still plan through areas of forecasted severe turbulence under certain conditions. Just curious how others approach this operationally
Thanks
