Post Question about a flight

Sorry if this is a dumb question.

But my friend is coming to visit me soon. He is from Texas and I ordered the ticket for him. His flight leaves at 6:35. But I cannot tell if it is referring to this in my timezone or his.

So when it says 6:35 is it in EST which is my time or Central which is his?
This might be a dumb question but it would be really bad if ended up missing the flight over this

Flights are always posted in local time. So it would be 6:35 local time in the originating city (in your case, Central).

It sounds like he has not flown much, so maybe it would be useful if he did a little bit of research before the trip.

- get to the airport with plenty of time to check in and get through security
- remember the liquids in hand baggage rules
- checking in procedures

...and so on.
