They absolutely don't have a hard time doing that. Go on any long haul flight and you can put the flight map on the screen showing exactly where you are, how fast you're going and when you'll arrive. You can cross reference that against observations to determine whether the data it's showing is accurate. I was flying back from Cairo recently, I did this for a bit. The map said we were flying over some mountains. I looked out the window and there they were. The idea that this is all possible without planes knowing where they are at all times and therefore how fast they're going is ludicrous.
How in the world would this translate to a transoceanic flight having little if any similarity to the flight you cite?[/quote]
Tom,One instance as a counter to the multitudes described by Tom? I think it is hilarious the airlines chose to redefine the terminology. Got to maintain the veil.
Cancelled/rescheduled flights. I would refer you again to the LATAM Santiago/Melbourne service as an example. Three months of scheduled flights, 3 times per week, only one flight cancelled. Of the remainder, every flight left Santiago on the day planned, most within an hour of the scheduled departure time. Not replanned. Not rescheduled. Not removed.
