How will the daylight saving time in the US affect trips to Europe?

Question

The US will start DST three weeks earlier than Europe. How will it impact my trip to Paris next week?

Answer 1

Your time difference will be five hours, instead of the usual six (if you're leaving from the US east coast).

Other than that, you don't have to worry. Since this time change has been known since 2005, your airline has already made arrangements in its timetable so that the departure time (in Eastern Daylight Time) and arrival in Central European Time are shown correctly on your itinerary.

Naturally, your flight takes the same length of time, about 7 hours, to cross the Atlantic, regardless of what the clocks at each end say.

When you're in France, don't forget to turn your watch ahead by one hour before going to bed the night of Saturday March 24th, so that you'll adjust to Daylight Saving Time in Europe.

DST won't be an issue. You are already crossing several time zones. When you land the flight attendant will tell you the local time, reset your watch, have fun.

For the next three weeks, there will be less of a time difference.
