What is the difference between AA and NA?

Separate fellowships, separate literature, and a great many members in common. The literature is different and the tone of the rooms often is too. This site lists both, so the N.A. pages for this area are linked in the footer.

How long does an AA meeting last?

Most meetings last an hour and some go to ninety minutes. The groups set their own start and finish times, and the schedule above has them. Start times for Defreestville are on every row of the schedule above.

Are online AA meetings as good as going in person?

Both work for different people and the fellowship has no view on which is better. A room in person gives you the conversation afterward, while an online meeting takes travel out of it and makes an unfamiliar hour easier to try. The format is the same either way, and what differs is the travel and the company.
