Meeting Planner

The meeting planner shows what one moment looks like in several places at once. It starts with your own time zone, New York and London, and lets you hold between two and five cities in total, chosen from a list of 30.

Choose a date, then move the slider through the day in 30-minute steps from 00:00 to 23:30. For each city the tool shows the local time and date at that moment, plus the time zone abbreviation. The slider time is based on your device's time zone, and each city row converts it. Because the date is part of the calculation, the abbreviations and offsets follow daylight saving changes on that day.

Each row is colour coded. A green row with a sun means the local time is within office hours, defined here as 9:00 up to 18:00. A grey row with a moon means late night, from 22:00 to before 06:00. Other hours, early morning and evening, are shown in amber.

The planner also checks all 48 half-hour slots for the selected date and lists those where every city is inside office hours. It displays up to the first three, with a count of any more. A check mark appears next to the slider when the time you have chosen is one of them. If no slot works for everyone, the list is not shown, which is a sign you will need to ask someone to meet outside their usual hours.

Office hours are fixed at 9:00 to 18:00 and cannot be changed. Weekends and local holidays are not considered. The calculation runs in your browser and nothing is uploaded.
