Difference between Sabbath and flight hours

שו”תCategory: HalachaDifference between Sabbath and flight hours
asked 2 years ago

Is it permissible to fly from place A to place B on Friday at 10:30, when there is a 5-hour time difference between them (for example, if it is 2:00 PM in place A, then it will be 9:00 AM in place B), if the flight lasts 9:20 hours?
That is, when we leave place A at 10:30, we arrive at place B at 2:50, when in place A it will be 7:50, meaning it is already Shabbat.
thanks

The Sabbath is based on where you are. It’s just that you have no way of determining this Sabbath based on the last place you were.
