Because airlines change their schedules from time to time? Because there's a lot of air traffic - military, business, emergency responses to e.g. hurricanes - that isn't scheduled?

Why did my plane have to sit an extra 50 minutes to let the airport get unbusy instead of simply flying slower?
Because it's more efficient to fly the airplane at its design speed?

Also, why is this forum not allowing me to capitalize letters in an acronym?
Must be a personal problem: I have no trouble with CAPITALIZATION. Or caPitAliZATion :-)
