Daylight saving between New York and Auckland

The gap is not fixed: it moves between 16 hours and 18 hours across the year, because the two cities switch to daylight saving on different dates. A time that worked in March can be an hour off in April — the planner uses each city's IANA rules for the exact date you pick, so it stays correct through the switch.
