is why even a minute deviation of the departure and arrival time of an airplane
will lead to affect other flights, and it will be reflected adversely to the
people. The most important factors that affect the departure and arrival of the
airplane is technical and meteorological conditions. While technical
requirements can be solved with appropriate interventions, meteorological
conditions may cause the cancellation of the flights and deviation with hours
or even days. A flight to take place under appropriate conditions, not just
from the port, the destination is also required to be eligible. Flights to
happen smoothly, the visibility of the runway, cloud base height, icing, wind
speed and direction, fog, snowing and a lot of meteorological factors must be
appropriate with required standards. These standards vary according to the
location of each airport. In this study, snowfall, a significant meteorological
factor, were examined how affect the national and international airports in
