code¶

IATA Airport code, but could be 4-letter ICAO code for non-IATA airports, etc.

gmt_offset¶

Difference between local time and GMT, in hours.

Used to convert flight times from GMT/UTC to local time. The system handles overnight flights by detecting when arrival time is before departure time in local time and adding 24 hours to the duration calculation.

Example: Flight from LAX (gmt_offset=-8.0) departing 23:00 local, arriving JFK (gmt_offset=-5.0) at 07:00 local next day. The system correctly calculates the elapsed time accounting for both the timezone change and day boundary.

Typical values range from -12.0 to +14.0 hours.

Returns:

float – The GMT offset in hours.
