Typhoon Noul is forecast to pass within 100km of Hong Kong around 06:00 local Sunday, exactly when CX250 is scheduled to land. HKO has raised T3 with T8 under assessment overnight. HKIA has already cancelled 53 departures and 47 arrivals for Monday; long-haul inbounds are being held, diverted to TPE/MFM, or slid to later slots.

Recommendation · Aircraft is already ferrying LHR→HKG so outright cancellation is less likely than a hold/diversion. Pre-warn the group of a 3–6h arrival slip, secure flexible airport transfers, and hold HKG hotel rooms for late check-in. Have TPE/MFM diversion recovery ready.
