Something-or-other circles traffic hold-up with a quick flight (10)

'something-or-other' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot tell whether this works.

'circles traffic hold-up with a quick flight' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'circles' could be 'oo' (resembles two O's) and 'oo' is present in the answer.
'traffic' could be 'jam' (I have seen 'awful traffic' mean 'jam' so perhaps 'traffic' could also mean 'jam') and 'jam' is present in the answer.
'a' is present in the answer.
The remaining letters 'flip' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

Can you help me to learn more?
