An explanation for this confusion may actually be found in Dramatic Irony. Many people consciously or subconsciously view their life as a narrative, as if someone or some audience was watching it all unfold like a play. Therefore from the point of view of an omniscient observer, their actions would seem ironic; there was no need to rush to the airport because the flight was already delayed, and the omniscient observer would have already known that. A person takes on the role of this observer in retrospect, as they "watch themselves" in the past.\\

This, in a nutshell, is what people most often mean, or ''think'' they mean, when they say something is ironic. The key is that it is the ironic result ''of an action'', not merely the result itself. "I rushed to the airport, but ironically my flight was delayed!" is not actually ironic. That is merely a coincidence. If, however, by your actions to get to the plane on time you somehow caused the flight to leave earlier, that would be ironic.\\
