Over 220 flights canceled in Hokkaido due to heavy snow

People should be at home doing the house cleaning or taking it easy rather than flying here and there-no need to battle nature.

I remember going to Sapporo for the snow festival on an ANA 737 and we did a perfect Cat III auto land in a blinding snowstorm and couldn’t even see the runway lights until touchdown. Incredible technology.

Oh well they can all go out side and have a snowball fight!

Some people have families to see, or have planned a trip for already a few weeks. You know The Oshogatsu is very important for Japanese.

@didou

Yes, I get that but I also think that it is important to respect nature and travel at times when it is more conducive.

A few more days spent in Sapporo?

I'm not going to complain about not returning to Tokyo just yet.
