# Departure & Arrival Times

---

Scheduled flight times shown in *Crew Ops* are displayed in UTC. This is simulator time, **not** real-world time.

While **not** mandated, we still encourage you to fly those scheduled times within your simulator.

In summary – if a flight departs at 1600 UTC, you do **not** have to fly it at the real-world time of 1600 UTC.
