Tips from PC Magazine Aug 2008.
Before you book, at www.flightstats.com you can get the odds of the flight being on time.
On the day of your departure, visit www.fly.faa.gov to learn if there are any delays specific to your destination.
You can sign up for OrbitzTLC Alerts or check updates.orbitz.com for real-time updates.
If you're already at the airport and have to rebook, don't wait at the back of the line at the service counter. Call your airline's telephone numbers instead.
