- Scheduling a call from Los Angeles to Jakarta: a 10:00 AM start in Los Angeles lands at 12:00 AM in Jakarta the next day, so you can confirm the slot without doing the arithmetic yourself.
- Handling a +14h gap: Los Angeles and Jakarta have no overlap inside a normal 9-to-5 day, so real-time meetings need an early-morning or late-evening slot on one side. 9:00 AM in Jakarta is 11:00 PM in Los Angeles.
