missed flights
Connections not made
Missed flights are flights a passenger failed to board, whether from arriving late, getting stuck in security, or simply losing track of time.
The phrase appears in travel insurance policies and airline rebooking discussions: The airline had no sympathy for my missed flight.
Missing a flight ranges from minor inconvenience to travel catastrophe depending on connections and flexibility.
