Delayed in flight means that the plane is behind schedule and will not be reaching its destination at the expected time. This delay can be caused by a variety of reasons, including weather conditions, maintenance issues, issues with the crew, or delays elsewhere in the flight plan. The airline will usually release a statement announcing the delay, along with any changes to the original itinerary.
