2. How do you think what causes flight delays?

Lets talk about the typical reasons that causeflights to depart or arrive late:

Weather

 This is probably themost obvious, and most common cause for delayed flights. There are three areaswhere weather affects flight schedules: at the origin airport, in-flight, andat the destination airport.
At the origin airport, weather can affect the scheduled flight arrival in manyways, such as a passing thunderstorm or snow squall, or the need to de-ice theaircraft. These normally temporary issues have lingering affects on flightarrival & departure times. When aircraft cannot depart on-time, laterscheduled flights have to wait due to the backlog, as the spacing intervalbetween takeoffs is fixed and cannot be compressed (imagine cars in trafficthat have a required two car lengths between them). The net affects is that allof the flights scheduled to arrive from the airport with the weather problemswill arrive late, as will many flights hours after the weather passed.

Traffic 

Many factors can cause airtraffic, and all impact both flight arrival and departure times. Congestionisnt only a problem when youre driving to the airport. It affects aircraft aswell and ultimately scheduled flight arrivals. Weather delays cause disruptionsin normal air traffic patterns. Flights normally scheduled to arrive on timemight have to cirlce around the airport area as congestion requires airtraffic controllers to hold some flights in a prescibed pattern before they arecleared to land.
So if you check on the flight status of a particular flight within 30 minutesof the scheduled arrival time, you may find a discrepancy, as aircraft placedin holding patterns around the airport may be reported as having arrived, eventhough the flight is still in the air.

Go-Arounds 

A go-around occurs when anaircraft is just about to land at anairport and the pilot decides it is notsafe to land. So you will see (or feel) the plane suddenly increasing altitude,as if it were taking off again. Of course this affects the arrival time forthat flight, as it could take up to 30 mins for the aircraft to return and landagain.

Mechanical Problems 

Mechanical problems affectarrival schedules too. If a scheduled flight has a mechanical problem while atthe origin airport, the airlines and FAA will update the flight status sotravelers know when a particular flight should land at an airport. This is byfar the greatest majority of cases — on-ground mechanical problems. However, ifthe flight experiences a significant mechanical problem while in the air, theflight might be re-routed to another airport. The FAA might not send updatesfast enough to inform travelers and service providers (such as this site) ofthe change, and consequently the flight arrival status could indicate all iswell while the flight actually landed in another airport.

1.     weather is the most obvious, andmost common cause for delayed flights;

2.     weather can affect the scheduledflight arrival in many ways, such as a passing thunderstorm or snow squall, orthe need to de-ice the aircraft;

3.     weather delays cause disruptionsin normal air traffic patterns;

4.     mechanical problemsaffect arrival schedules too;

5.     many factors can cause airtraffic, and all impact both flight arrival and departure times

 

4. Say in English:

запланированный рейс; гроза,снежный шквал, обледенение самолета; воздушное судно; интервал между взлетамификсирован и не может быть сжат; все это влияет как на прибытие, так иотправление; самолету придется кружиться в зоне аэропорта; вызывать сбои вструктуре воздушного движения; приземлиться; набирать высоту; испытыватьсущественные механические проблемы.

 

5. ITS IMPORTANT TO KNOW:

 

 Flightdelay: These are your rights

Was your flight delayed? Ifso, the airline has a duty to take care of you. This includes free refreshmentsand snacks, and even hotel accommodation. If your flight is delayed more thanthree hours you can claim compensation. These rights are clearly defined in theEuropean Unions Regulation EC 261/2004 on the rights of air passengers.However, airlines often try to avoid paying compensation by claiming the delaywas due to extraordinary circumstances, such as bad weather. Thismeans they cannot be held responsible for the delay.

 

 

 

Flight delay: How your compensation is calculated 

If the airline is responsiblefor the delay, you have the right to compensation. The amount you are owed iscalculated based on the flight route, rather than the price of the flight.

Flight destinations within the EU

§ € 250 compensation for a delayed flight of up to 1,500 km

• € 400 compensation for a delayed flight of over 1,500 km

§ € 600 compensation for a delayed flight of over 3,500 km

6. Find in the text:

 

a)     Если вашрейс задерживается более чем на три часа, вы можете требовать компенсации.

b)     Вам предложат бесплатныенапитки и закуски, и даже размещение в гостинице.

c)     Авиакомпании частопытаются избежать выплаты компенсации, утверждая, что задержка была из-зачрезвычайных обстоятельств, таких как неблагоприятные погодныеусловия.
