Could you believe that an hour after this thing was posted, the first flight was already filled?

ugh it just gives me even more of a reason to hate time zones.........

[Pickles]

Heh, I'm glad May was around...I've been at the dentist for 3 hours. It would figure that it would start during that.

So these times are in EST (2 hours ahead of NST)? Or are they in EDT (3 hours ahead of NST)? Just checkin' -- it makes a bit of a difference in terms of when we can do our next step.

And do we have to wait to access the map until the page has changed to say our flight has landed, or do we just go when the time clicks over, regardless of whether the page is updated?

Thanks!

Wha? I thought EST was +3 of PST. Anyways, it's +3. I don't know if I got the abreviations right, but its +3.

They are posted on the boards; the links to the maps.
