Plan arrival local time using departure local time, travel duration, and UTC offsets
Plan arrival time accurately by combining departure local date/time, travel duration, and UTC offsets for origin and destination.
Departure UTC = departure local time - departure UTC offset
Total in-transit hours = flight duration + layover duration
Arrival UTC = departure UTC + total in-transit hours
Arrival local = arrival UTC + destination UTC offset
Time-zone difference = destination UTC offset - departure UTC offset
This planner helps avoid scheduling mistakes when trips cross time zones and calendar days.
It converts your departure local time to UTC, adds in-transit time, and then converts to destination local time.
Depart 2026-06-04 19:30, UTC-5 to UTC+1, 7.5h flight, 0.5h layover
Arrival local: next morning in London, +6 hour time difference
Eastbound overnight flights often feel shorter on the clock but advance local day and hour significantly.
Depart 2026-07-10 12:00, UTC-8 to UTC+9, 11h flight, 1.5h layover
Arrival local: next day in Tokyo, +17 hour time difference
Large positive offset differences almost always require jet-lag buffer in planning.
Depart 2026-08-02 09:00, UTC+1 to UTC-5, 9h flight, 1h layover
Arrival local: same calendar day in New York, -6 hour time difference
Westbound flights can arrive earlier on local clocks even with long in-transit time.
Manual offsets keep the planner simple and transparent, especially when testing what-if routes or historical dates.
No. Enter offsets that already reflect your intended departure and arrival dates, including any daylight saving adjustments.
Yes. Add layover hours so total in-transit time better matches real itinerary timing.
It tells you how destination local date compares to departure local date (same day, next day, previous day, etc.).
