or diverted due to bad weather.
In a highly unusual move, the French Civil Aviation Authority

after a powerful storm struck northern France.
The French weather office has warned that much of northern
France will be battered by winds of more than 100 kilometres per
hour.
The Paris airports will stay shut till 5pm today Singapore
time.
As a further precaution, Air France, Delta Airlines and Qantas
have all cancelled their evening flights.
Singapore Airlines' afternoon flight has not been affected, but
its evening flight will be diverted to Milan before making its way
to Paris.
