In this study, three different methods from machine learning and deep learning have been implemented for preventing financial and moral losses that may occur as a result of delays in flights and to take necessary precautions by predicting the flight delay in advance, which are a serious problem in the aviation industry. Deep recurrent neural network (DRNN), long-short term memory (LSTM), and random forest (RF) have been extensively tested and compared employing a real data set covering 368 airports across the world with relevancy the success rate of forecasting of delay on flights. The experimental results showed that the LSTM model had a higher success rate of 96.50% at the recall level than the others.
