      Extreme weather events pose increasing risks to air transport operations, affecting flight safety, scheduling, and infrastructure resilience. This paper provides a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of scientific literature addressing the impacts of extreme weather on aviation, based on 1000 documents retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection (2010–2024). Using VOSviewer software, keyword co-occurrence, overlay visualization, co-authorship networks, and citation analyses were conducted. Results revealed a clear thematic shift from environmental impact assessments toward research emphasizing operational resilience, technological adaptation, and mitigation strategies. Collaboration networks highlighted strong international cooperation, particularly among institutions in the United States, Germany, and the United Kingdom, with growing contributions from emerging research regions. Highly cited studies predominantly focused on emissions modeling and operational mitigation measures. Despite notable advances, the field remains fragmented and geographically uneven, underscoring the need for broader interdisciplinary integration and empirical validation of adaptation strategies. This paper offers a systematic overview of the evolving research landscape and identifies critical directions for future efforts to enhance the resilience and sustainability of global air transport systems under increasing climatic volatility.
