I searched for "date line" and "internation date line" and the search produced no relevant results.

I flew from Toronto to Incheon back in 2006 and I remember losing a day crossing over the international date line. I'm flying to Osaka for ECC training and I'm wondering which day I'll arrive.

My flight from Vancouver to Osaka departs at 13:05 on Wed Sept 10 and arrives at 15:55. Flight duration is 10 hours and 50 minutes. Will it arrive on Thursday Sept 11 at 15:55 or Friday Sept 12 at 15:55?

Thanks in advance for helpful replies.

For what it's worth, I like this website for figuring the different world time zones: http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/

Doesn't your ticket or flight itinerary from the travel agent/airline have this information?

usually the flight info tells you what date and time you arrive. For example, on the day I leave my flight takes off at 12:00 pm. It's 13 hours and 10 minutes long and I arrive at 3:10 pm the day after my flight takes off. I like the time difference from here to Japan as it's only 12 + 1 so it's easy to figure out.

Thanks for the speedy replies, everyone. Smile

Yeah, the second page of my itinerary does have this info, but I had overlooked it.
