Normally the flight will not leave early, unless either A) all the people have checked in or B) the posted time is not the scheduled departure. IE the flight was scheduled to leave at 10:00, but was showing 10:30 for delays etc. If that is the case they may not update the board, but the plane will leave since it is either fixed or finally allowed to depart by FAA.
