Everybody shouldn't be allowed to set the system timezone by default, as
it affects all users on the system. If you don't have administrator
rights on your laptop, you can ask the administrator to grant you the
rights for the org.gnome.clock.mechanism.settimezone PolicyKit action,
but this decision can't be made by Ubuntu.
Note that if you travel a lot, you may find convenient to define
locations in the preferences of the panel's clock. This way, you can see
the time in all the places you're interested in. Maybe the clock should
support showing the time according to a location without changing the
system timezone, but that would be another bug.
