Time (1300-0300 UTC) and at EWR and JFK from 6 a.m. to 11 p.m. Eastern

IATA standard schedule information format and data elements (Standard

Schedules Information Manual) may be used.

The U.S. winter scheduling season for these airports is from

October 30, 2011, through March 24, 2012, in recognition of the IATA scheduling season dates. The FAA understands there may be differences in schedule times due to different U.S. daylight saving time dates, and these will be accommodated to the extent possible.
