Anyone know what "Delayed NTP" means?
I'm seeing that on my flight status on SWABIZ right now (BUR-OAK, 1136)
Edit to add: thanks to a mod for moving this. I did a search on NTP and got no results.

Searching NTP results in this message:
Generally speaking, FT search ignores search terms shorter than four characters. In this case there are several solutions for that:These tips and more are discussed in the Technical Issues forum.
The following words are either very common, too long, or too short and were not included in your search : NTP
- Search NTP* (* is the wildcard character);
- Search "NTP";
- Use FT's google custom site search form;
- Use Google's site search syntax;
- Google delayed NTP or "delayed NTP"…it is not a common phrase, so this thread is likely to be the #1 result.

Bump. Tracking a flight that family is taking and it is listed on WN website under Flight Status as "Delayed NTP". Did anyone ever figure out what "NTP" means? SouthwestGabe, can you shed some light on this mystery?

I could be wrong, but, my understanding of "departed" is push-back from the gate (maybe closure of aircraft door). WN had my MDW-EWR flight wait at MDW on Saturday for a while due to ATC delays in EWR after we taxied for a bit. So, IIRC, I suppose a flight could have "departed" and still have no arrival time predicted yet.
