Hurricane Milton (Gulf Coast of Florida)

Weather Alert No.2: We continue to monitor Hurricane Milton as it nears Florida's Gulf Coast region. While Broward County, where FLL is located, is not on the storm's forecast path, we will likely get some bad weather here. FLL is currently open and operational. However, airlines have canceled flights to key storm-affected areas, so check for updated flight status before coming to our airport.

​H​​urricane Tips

  • Call your airline or check the airline's website for the latest flight schedule. When the airport closes/reopens due to a hurricane, the airlines are the best source of information for information on canceled and rescheduled flights.
  • Do not use the parking garage to store your car during a hurricane.
  • Terminals are not designed as hurricane shelters. As a hurricane approaches, all passengers and airline personnel will evacuate the terminals, and they will close. The terminals will reopen after the storm passes and are declared safe to re-enter.
  • Our primary concern is the safety of travelers, airline employees, and FLL employees. The Broward County Aviation Department will do everything possible to maintain regular operations so that the airlines may continue to fly.​​​
