FAA October 28 daily U.S. air-traffic planning outlook: San Diego, Seattle and Las Vegas.

The reporting question: Where does FAA flag possible travel slowdowns today, and what should a passenger check next?

A changed Wednesday list

The October 28 issue names San Diego and Seattle for possible low-cloud slowdowns and Las Vegas for possible gusty-wind delays. The list does not establish actual conditions or guarantee that flights at airports it does not name will run on time. [1] [2]

Possible delay is not an observed delay

FAA uses conditional wording: clouds may slow traffic and wind could delay flights. It does not provide a probability, a delay duration or a cancellation count. Treat this as an airport planning outlook, not your flight’s status. [1] [2] [3]

Use the right next check

The agency directs passengers to their air carrier for flight-specific delay information. Its daily-outlook page returned HTTP 403 “Access Denied” in our October 28 Chromium check. FAA’s NAS status page opened with JavaScript enabled; without it, the page asked us to enable JavaScript. Use the NAS link for airport operations and your airline for your own flight. The access check does not establish a delay, cancellation or cause for your flight. [3] [4]
