Here's how to figure out your flight is delayed before your travel day even starts - SF Gate

If you’re already dealing with the irritation and inconvenience of a delayed flight, there’s nothing worse than seeing the anticipated departure time climb up and up and up while you angrily stare out the window, willing your plane to appear at the gate.

But there is a way to anticipate when your plane will actually depart — and you can do it before you even leave for the airport.

On a recent trip to Southern California, flights were heavily delayed by foggy conditions along the coast. My departure from Oakland made it out OK, but I was worried about delays on the way home. So the morning of my trip, I pulled up FlightAware.
