There was a not very good TV show Seven Days that used this well. They had a time machine that could go back in time seven days. The pilot had to fly the machine chasing the earth as he traveled back in time.
He would usually end up crashing it somewhere and have to find a phone to call for pickup.

Depends on how time travel works. I mean, within the next 24 hours I plan to travel to tomorrow. I’m not going to be taking any of that into account.
