This year, I am going to skip April Fool's day.<br />
<br />
I am not being glib, but quite literal.<br />
<br />
We are taking flight NZ7 starting on the evening of March 31 in San Francisco, flying over the Pacific Ocean, and will arrive on April 2 in the early morning in Auckland, New Zealand.<br />
<br />
Even if one actually follows the flight route and overlays it over the timezone map, it looks very much like we are not going to spend more than a few dozen minutes, or at most a few hours, in April 1, if all goes according to plan.<br />
<br />
Looking forward to it!<br />
<br />
Here's the flight data of a previous NZ7 flight, from Sunday: https://flightaware.com/live/flight/ANZ7/history/20230327/0410Z/KSFO/NZAA/tracklog?fbclid=IwAR180K-jQXJLMy1MX4t38D8cMOnjWDHVjsxNudh_12AJYLrotsmLdfjO2UA<br />
<br />
Here are the timezones (but it's Northern winter time). Would be nice to overlay the two maps: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/dc/Standard_time_zones_of_the_world_%282012%29_-_Pacific_Centered.svg/1672px-Standard_time_zones_of_the_world_%282012%29_-_Pacific_Centered.svg.png?fbclid=IwAR0AiFYoQiK4KufW98bChpPlKKUOColJ6b-OYeQhRUG586qGGceQOSEXzuc<br />
<br />
Where's Wikifunctions when it's needed?<br />
<br />
The question seems to be twofold: how often do we cross the dateline, and how close are we to local time midnight while crossing the dateline. For a perfect date miss one would need to cross the dateline exactly once, at a 24 hour difference, as close as possible to local midnight.<br />
