Best Meeting Times: GST and EST
Standard 09:00–17:00 business hours do not overlap between Gulf Standard Time and Eastern Time.
Standard 09:00–17:00 business hours do not overlap between Dubai and New York. Consider a standing 08:00 call for the earlier zone, which lands in the evening for the later zone.
For zero-overlap corridors, we recommend the Meeting Planner's rotation-fairness feature to distribute meeting burden equitably.

Daylight Saving Time: GST and EST
The UAE does not observe DST. Gulf Standard Time (UTC+4) is fixed year-round, making it a stable reference for scheduling between Europe and Asia.
The US observes Daylight Saving Time. Clocks spring forward 1 hour on the second Sunday in March and fall back on the first Sunday in November. During EDT (UTC−4), the gap to IST narrows by 1 hour.
