In other words, your plane is scheduled to fly Denver-Akron-Denver, leaving Denver at 1:00pm. For whatever reason, the plane which would be in Denver at noon or so to head out to Akron at 1:25pm is not available to do that. So instead they are using a plane coming in from Milwaukee at 3:44pm. They are planning to turn that plane around and head for Akron around 3 hours late. That's why your CAK-DEN flight is so late.

If you'd like to follow it during the day, the plane is currently in LaGuardia and will fly LGA-MKE-DEN as flight 371. Then the plane will fly DEN-CAK as #499.

I should probably have my FT credentials revoked for even asking this question, but Where does one find this information?
