Delay and nightime ban

If my flight turnaround is squeezed there is an overlap (so delays will happen)- will the flight depart as normal if there is a nightime ban at the airport.

You don't have to worry about the nighttime ban.

That would be a very interesting feature, the impossibility to make the fligth if the delay made the arrival time inside the night curfew.

No it would not, because at all airports with a nightime ban it is allowed to land within one hour after the beginning of the ban if the flight is delayed. Here you will just have lots of cancelled flights because of one minute delay, which is not realistic at all.

That is not correct. There is no general rule about the acceptance of delayed flights. For example Bilbao and Bremen are very restrictive - if you are delayed, you have to divert.

Thanks.

Well if that was the real case- that would have been bad. First 00:00 (from JER) flight left 25mins late!

And on some airports with night curfew that have a tolerance for delays, there is still heavy fines to pay I believe, although I'm not 100% sure.

It's not the world that has to adapt to you, and your delays, is the other way around. So to avoid delays and consequent expensive cancellations, create time buffers.

In my personal opinion the more challenging the game can be, as it would be with this feature, the most fun you can get out of it.

How about transfer passengers- do they transfer on to other flights if there is a delay that goes under the minimum transfer time.

It is beyond my understanding why nobody uses search function these days

In reality, if an aircraft of a big airline is stuck somewhere at a spoke airport, there well be a replacement aircraft available at the hub. Here this is not possible.

Would you care to explain the relevance of what you wrote regarding what's being discussed, i.e., what does that have to do with a flight being stranded due to night curfew at origin or destination?

If a plane is stranded at an airport, it cannot continue the journey onwards and thus all subsequent flights at other airports will be cancelled until morning. In reality the airline would dispatch a reserve plane and crew to the next airport to continue that plane's schedule. In AS that is not possible, so a stranded plane would lead to a domino sequence of cancellations.

Thank you for the input! But if the flight gets cancelled wouldn't it be an automatic transfer to the next airport? Nevertheless, I stick to my opinion: if the consequences of a delay are severe, do the utmost to avoid it. As simple as it can be.

That’s an interesting question. Are transfer flights possible if there is a nightime ban?

Well, it's a "ban", so there should be no take-off or landing activities.

But since the team,

You don't have to worry about the nighttime ban.

  you shouldn't be worried about that 

transfer flights do not take performance restrictions and any other restriction in place or better:they completely ignore them, just have a look for a new airplane based on a curfew'ed airport, you can transfer the plane immediately, whatever time it is...
