At ORD, the peak hours are 0700 to 2100 Central Time (1300 to 0300 UTC), at SFO from 0600 to 2300 Pacific Time (1400 to 0700 UTC), and at EWR and JFK from 0600 to 2300 Eastern Time (1100 to 0400 UTC).

IATA standard schedule information format and data elements (Standard Schedules Information Manual or SSIM) may be used. The U.S. winter scheduling season for these airports is from October 26, 2014, through March 28, 2015, in recognition of the IATA northern winter period. The FAA understands there may be differences in schedule times due to different U.S. daylight saving time dates, and the FAA will accommodate these differences to the extent possible.
