Answer 3

Scheduled times are always wrong. An example: Manchester - Hong Kong if the airline says 12 hours and it takes them 12.5 they are late. If they tell you it is 14 and you arrive after 12.5 you are early! All airlines allow a large margin so they can then promote themselves over their excellent time keeping.

I once flew to Australia, we were hours late leaving, the pilot got permission to "burn extra fuel" and we arrived early!

Answer 4

SCHEDULED flight times are padded with plenty of extra minutes to allow for taxi and ground delays, and are published, posted and printed for the passengers convenience.

ACTUAL flight times differ from day to day, destination to destination, flight to flight.  Air Traffic Control, weather, head/tail winds, flight plans...all dictate the ACTUAL flight times of all scheduled airlines on a daily basis.

The link from the previous answer is a good source for SCHEDULED flight times however.
