Best time for a meeting between Chicago and Auckland
Auckland is currently 17 hours ahead of Chicago. Right now it's 6:39 PM in Chicago and 11:39 AM in Auckland. With standard 9-to-5 working days, the two cities have no overlapping working hours, so someone will need to flex — the fairest option is to split the difference.
Fair compromise slot
4:00 AM in Chicago = 9:00 PM in Auckland
This lands just outside 9-to-5 for both cities and shares the inconvenience evenly. Rotate who takes the early or late slot to keep it fair.
