    Yes, this is a thing that can happen. When temperatures are high the air density means that planes need to achieve a higher speed to take off. Same for increased weight. Same for high altitude airports. Same when there’s less headwind to take off into.

    If enough of these factors are bad enough, you have to change what you can. Can’t change the airport elevation or the weather, so that leaves you with the weight.
