Thanks!
yes.time zones matter and affect the hold length.
If booking 2 one-ways and they're in different time zones, booking both one ways at say, 11:59 pm and 12:00 AM can result in two tickets (making a round trip) with two different hold times even though they were booked essentially minutes apart
