Overnight travel puts departures at hours nobody would choose, and a coach or a check-in at 11:16 pm is not moved by how inconvenient it is. This page counts down to that time exactly, so the last hour before leaving can be spent packing rather than doing arithmetic.
There is one number to read and nothing to choose: hours, minutes and seconds counting down together towards 11:16 pm. No start button, no options, no settings page to get right beforehand — just the current gap to that time, updating on its own for as long as you need it.
Between the last Sunday in March and the last Sunday in October the country runs on BST rather than GMT, which is why timetables and confirmations sometimes carry the label as well as the number. This page counts down to 11:16 pm using whatever your device is currently set to, so the switch is handled for you.
Common questions
Which clock does it use?
Your own. It reads the local time and time zone from the device you are looking at, so the figure reflects where you actually are rather than a fixed zone written into the page.
Will this alert me when the time arrives?
No. It is a live number rather than an alarm — nothing rings, buzzes or notifies you at zero. If you need to be interrupted at 11:16 pm, set an alarm as well and treat this page as the running total.
Is it affected by the clocks changing?
Only in the sense that your device is. When the change between GMT and BST happens at the end of March and October, the device adjusts and the countdown follows it without anything to do here.
What is 23:16 in the 12-hour clock?
That is 11:16 pm, or sixteen minutes past eleven at night if you are saying it aloud. From 13:00 onwards, subtracting twelve gives the pm figure — the same moment written three different ways.
