Flights disrupted as weakened Bavi still packs a punch on its way towards China

Typhoon Bavi, now classified as a severe typhoon, is approaching China's coastal regions, prompting flight cancellations and refund policies at multiple airports. At least 10 airports have seen disruptions, with Zhoushan airport cancelling 14 flights and Wenzhou airport cancelling 17 inbound flights. Major Chinese airlines such as Air China, China Southern Airlines, and others have introduced flexible booking options for affected travelers. According to the National Meteorological Centre, Bavi's wind speeds have decreased to 45 meters per second but remains a significant threat. Meanwhile, Taiwan is preparing for the typhoon's impact, with forecasts predicting heavy rainfall over the next 24 hours.

Bias read (Center): The article provides factual information about the typhoon's trajectory, its effects on air travel, and meteorological updates without any overtly biased language or emphasis on political implications. It focuses on the natural disaster and its logistical impacts rather than making political claims.
