Common Questions

Why does Alexandria show as Cairo time?

Egypt operates on a single national time zone — Africa/Cairo — used for Alexandria, Damietta, Sokhna, and Cairo. Port operations and carrier cut-offs follow this time unless a terminal specifies otherwise.

Do daylight saving changes affect vessel schedules?

Yes. Hubs like Europe/Amsterdam and America/New_York switch between standard and daylight time. This tool applies current IANA rules — always confirm sailing cut-offs with GML for critical shipments.

What does “+1 day” mean in the results?

It means the local date in that city is one calendar day ahead of your reference city at the selected moment — common when coordinating calls between Egypt and East Asia or Australia.
