Recommended window
A practical window is often 7-8 AM New York / 7-8 PM Hong Kong, requiring an early call in New York or an evening call in Hong Kong.
Timezone difference
Hong Kong is usually 12 or 13 hours ahead of New York, depending on US daylight saving time. Three-letter abbreviations can be misleading, so use city names and a date when confirming international meeting times.
Remote team scheduling advice
For two-city meetings, use the cleanest overlap and keep the call short. For larger teams, add every participant to the tool above and let the overlap window decide whether the meeting should be live, async, or rotated.
