From my understanding:

  • Take off is in timezone of airport of departure.
  • Landing is in timezone of airport of arrival.

I fly from Munich at 21:50, and I arrive in Athens at 01:10.

So, I will land in Athens at 01:10. Correct?

Flight time between the two cities is approximately 2 hours 25 minutes. If the landing timezone was the same as Munich, it would land at around 00:10.

Since the ETA is 01:10 and we know that the time difference between these 2 places is 1 hour (Munich = UTC+1, Athens = UTC+2), it is safe to say that Yes you will land at 01:10 local time in Athens.

This is generally the practice everywhere. Take-off and landing times are almost always displayed in local timezones at the respective airports. I can't seem to find a counter-example so far.

Yes. The time displayed is always the airport local time.
