      TIME INFORMATION

      Trains and planes operate on the 24-hour timetable. Thus, midnight is 00:00, 9 a.m. is 09:00, and 5 p.m. is 17:00. If this is confusing, confirm times using the regular 12-hour method, carefully enunciating gozen (a.m.) or gogo (p.m.).

      All of Japan lies in a single time zone that is one hour behind Sydney, one hour ahead of Hong Kong and Singapore, nine hours ahead of London, and fourteen hours ahead of New York.
