Time zones of the world & how to calculate time difference, flight duration etc:

 

The world is divided into 24 time zones beginning from the prime meridian in Greenwich, England

Greenwich connects the north and south poles.

Time in all the countries is called Greenwich Mean Time and also referred to as Universal Time Coordinated – UTC

GMT + 1 = 1 Hour ahead of GMT

GMT – 1 = 1 Hour behind of GMT

Countries do decide by law 1 standard time within its boundaries

Certain countries modify their standard time during the summer by advancing one hour. This temporary change is called Daylight Saving Time

One can calculate the time difference between two places by calculating the GMT time. For example Frankfurt is at GMT +1 and Tokyo is at GMT + 9 so by subtracting 1 from 9 we can find out the difference.
