Hi Jayanand,

If the conference starts on Monday, meaning he has to fly on Sunday, then 
there is no way he will make it on time. If Monday is the travelling day, 
then maybe, although I note that at least one airline (Ryanair) has already 
cancelled all its flights until at least 13:00 on Monday, assuming 
conditions improve.

He should take up your suggestion and reroute.

Cheers,
Nathan
