Common questions
How do I work out what time I'll land?
Add the flight time to your departure time, then convert the result to the destination's clock. The catch is that the departure is in one time zone and the answer in another, and either can be changing for daylight saving that week — this calculator resolves both from each airport's own time zone on the date you give.
Why does my flight land the next day — or before it took off?
Flying east you lose hours to the clock, so a long eastbound flight often lands on the next calendar day. Flying west across the date line can do the opposite: a Pacific crossing from Asia to the Americas regularly lands at an earlier clock time than it left.
Is the flight time exact?
The default is an estimate from the distance: typical cruise speed plus about half an hour for taxi, take-off and landing. Airlines' scheduled times include buffers and vary with the prevailing winds, so for a real booking type in the duration from your ticket.
Does it handle daylight saving time?
Yes. The offset for each airport is looked up for the actual date and time of travel, so a flight in the weeks when Europe and North America change their clocks on different dates still comes out right.
