TOP TIPS

  • Call your airline for information on flight arrivals and departures before, during and after an emergency. Operations may be interrupted.
  • Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (and North Perry Airport) are not shelters. There are no provisions to provide for the housing of the public during an emergency.
  • Do not park your car in the airport's garages. Garage parking spaces are used to store airport-related vehicles and support equipment.
BEFORE THE STORM
  • As tropical storm conditions approach, airport personnel monitor the situation closely and, in consultation with the airlines, will determine when the last flights are allowed to arrive and depart at Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport. This will be announced in local media.
  • Flights must stop with sufficient time in advance of the storm to ensure that airlines can relocate aircraft to a safe location. This means that flights that normally terminate at Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport may terminate at an alternate stop.
AFTER THE STORM
  • Once the storm has passed, damages, if any, will be assessed and based upon that, flights will resume when the safety of employees, flight personnel and the public can be ensured. Please call your airline for the status of arriving and departing flights.
