When is happy hour?

Hi all, i have to book a flight for tommorow to ADL and was wondering when happy hour was - currently it says that it is in 18 mins but it runs from 12 - 1? Unless, im assuming, its QLD time?

EDIT: Doesnt look like it makes much difference anyway as the prices are the same!

One thing to note is that rarely does "Happy Hour" cough up anything for flights in the near future - more like in a month or 6.
