What is a “Possible Delay”?

Your guess is as good as mine! When the airlines list a “possible delay” what exactly does that mean?

Wouldn’t it be fair to say that every flight could possibly be delayed? Is this information actually supposed to help travelers in any way?

  1. Why didn’t the airlines try to take more of a ‘glass half full’ approach?

    The flights could have been listed as ‘possibly on time’.
