Airlines have been required to proactively notify passengers of any changes in flight schedules so that travellers can make appropriate travel arrangements.
The CAAV has also warned that prolonged heavy rainfall brought by the storm may cause flooding at airports directly impacted by it.
After the storm dissipates, all relevant units must focus their resources to promptly restore normal flight operations, the authority noted.
