Turbulence is usually mild but can also be terrifying.
Jean Claude RaemyEconomics Editor

Nobody likes turbulence. That is, no shaking or slumping up and down during flight. What most people don’t know is that turbulence is relatively easy to predict. This is where Swedish online portal Turbli comes in: it offers turbulence forecasts for every flight.

You enter your flight route, then select the appropriate flight and receive information in English about whether turbulence is to be expected, how severe it will be and at what stage of the flight it will occur. The service is free and operates up to 36 hours before scheduled departure.

Switzerland is the leader in turbulence

If it indicates major turbulence on the upcoming flight, this is in no way a reason for free cancellation or rebooking of the airline ticket. Tariff regulations do not take turbulence into account.

It’s always interesting to look at the portal. Because, according to Turbli, 8 of the 10 flight routes with the most turbulence in Europe affect Switzerland. Zurich ranks second in the list of airports most affected by turbulence in Europe, while Geneva Airport ranks fourth, while routes from Milan to Geneva and Zurich are in the top 10 in terms of global turbulence.

Answer correctly

Most turbulence is completely harmless. At least if you follow the captain and crew’s instructions: sit with your seat belt on. Drinking and securing loose objects are also recommended. And: calm down!
