night is usually the calmest.

Having a rough flight depends on the weather conditions. The captain will announce weather conditions along the flight, and weather or not to expect turbulence. Have a great trip!

There is no way to forecast any sort of turbulence. Sophisticated on board weather radars can tell the crew where bad weather is and they'll try to avoid these conditions for passenger comfort. Turbulence IS SAFE!! Think of it as bumps on the water. Planes are built to sustain severe weather conditions and turbulence cannot damage an aircraft, just make it uncomfortable for everyone on board.

No matter where or when you fly there is always a chance for turbulance on a flight. It is entirely normal, so don't worry about it.

I would not be surprised if there is a little bit since the flight is quite long. Also it depends on the weather the night you fly out as well. It is hard for us to forecast whether or not you will experience any turbulence. There is a thing called clear air turbulence as well where the weather is clear and the aircraft drops. The best thing to do is to keep your seat belt fastend throughout the flight as sometimes turbulence cannot be predicted.
