Editorial Policy & Quality Standards

What we publish

• Route-specific planning pages with flight-time estimates, time zone differences, and jet lag guidance.
• Flight-time analysis pages focused on travel duration and route characteristics.
• Practical guides explaining the methodology and planning principles behind the tools.

How pages are produced

Route pages are generated from structured airport and route data plus deterministic calculations. We supplement computed values with explanatory content designed to answer common traveler questions. We aim to avoid empty templates by including route-specific facts (distance, direction, time-zone shift, severity, related routes, and assumptions).

Quality standards we follow

• Clear distinction between estimates, heuristics, and confirmed facts.
• Explicit limitations and disclaimers where output can vary in the real world.
• Useful on-page summaries first, with deeper explanation below.
• Internal links to supporting pages (guides, reverse routes, related destinations).
• Corrections path available through the contact page.

Medical and travel-booking boundaries

We do not provide medical diagnosis or treatment advice, and we are not an airline or booking platform. Our jet lag planning content is general wellness guidance for trip planning. Users should consult airlines for schedules and health professionals for personal medical concerns.

Ads and monetization

JetLag Planner is supported by advertising. We aim to keep ads non-intrusive and separate from the main planning content. Advertising does not change the calculation logic or route estimates.

Updates and corrections

We update data and content when route coverage changes, estimation logic improves, or errors are reported. If you find a mistake, send the page URL and details through our contact page.
