What is the difference between “on time” and “in time”?
To arrive “on time” is when you arrive at the time the event is scheduled to start. To arrive “in time” is when you may have arrived late, however, you arrive BEFORE the event starts (which was perhaps delayed).
Check out these examples.
- I had a meeting at ten, and I arrived on time, 10 o’clock sharp.
- There was a lot of traffic, but I arrived in time for my appointment, because the doctor was also delayed.
