Google's app will predict flight delay
The specialists Google Announced new features of Google Flights. It is about the ability to predict the application of potential flight delays. In conditions of unstable weather conditions around the world, such a forecast can be a very popular option.
In order to give a final final forecast for the upcoming flight, Google Flights evaluates many different factors. This also applies to atmospheric phenomena, and the landing time of the aircraft after the previous voyage, and the carrier’s general statistics. All this information is known even before the flight is announced, and if it is properly analyzed, it is possible to predict the possible delay.
Naturally, this method can not give a 100% guarantee in each case, in addition, the calculated percentage will not be indicative. For this reason, the application informs the owner about possible problems in the upcoming route only if the percentage of negative developments exceeds 80.
Google representatives expect that the new service will become a convenient auxiliary element when planning trips. After all, you can simply choose a flight and see the current picture.
However, they caution against erroneous views about the one hundred percent forecast result. You should not completely rely on Google Flights, plan flights more correctly, taking into account the possible occurrence of force majeure.
