According to a report published by Simple Flying on September 19, 2026, American Airlines is preparing to trial a new rolling delay fix. The city of Charlotte will serve as the proving ground for the carrier as it tests updating flight delay notifications based on the arrivals of inbound aircraft.
This test program is being launched following years of passenger complaints regarding rolling delays. The trial is scheduled to begin in Charlotte to test the delay updates, and there are currently no additional operational details available regarding other airports or regions.
