Travel Question concerning time zones between CDTZ and WCTZ in America

Travel Question concerning time zones between CDTZ and WCTZ in America?
Please help settle an argument Let's say a flight was to leave from Milwaukee at 2:30pm [CDT] and it was a four flight to LAX, what time would I get into LA [west coast time]. Thank you for your responses.

The Central Time to Pacific time difference is 2 hours. Lv. Milwaukee at 2:30 PM add 4 hrs. flight which would in Milwaukee time be 6:30 PM, now deduct the 2 hrs. time difference and your answer is: 4:30 PM

Not sure where you got those abbreviations. Since we don't use either CDTZ or WCTZ in the US. Milwaukee is in the Central Time Zone (CST now, the D is only used for Daylight savings time which we are now off until March). Los Angeles in the Pacific Time Zone (PST). PST is 2 hours behind CST. So if you leave Milwaukee at 2:30pm and take a 4 hour flight, it would be 6:30pm CST when you land. Turn your clock back 2 hours and it will be 4:30pm PST in Los Angeles.
