Wikitravel:Time and date formats

When giving times and dates, such as for attractions, restaurants and bars, use the following format.

Times - Use the format of 10:30AM-5PM.

Note:

• Decimals not used when not required, eg not 5:00PM.
• Where decimals are required, semicolon used as the separator, eg not 5.30PM or 5-30PM.
• Spaces and periods (fullstops) left out, eg not 10:30 A.M. – 5 P.M.
• 12-hour format rather than 24-hour format, eg 5PM, not 1700.

Days – Abbreviate to the minimum number of letters, ie M Tu W Th F Sa Su.

Exceptions:

• Spell out when it is part of a named day, eg Good Friday, Fat Tuesday.
• If it looks odd or ambiguous in a particular context, spell it out.
