When the difference changes

Alaska Time and Hawaii Standard Time do not change their clocks on the same dates, so the gap between them is not the same all year. Most converters show only today’s figure. These are the periods ahead:

  1. Now – March 14, 2027Hawaii Standard Time is 1 hour behind
  2. March 14, 2027 – November 7, 2027Hawaii Standard Time is 2 hours behind
  3. November 7, 2027 – onwardsHawaii Standard Time is 1 hour behind

Periods shorter than a day are not listed. Each zone changes at its own local time, so on a date when both move there are a few hours when the gap is briefly something else.

Daylight saving

Alaska Time

Sunday, March 14, 2027

Clocks go forward one hour — 2:00 am becomes 3:00 am local time, and the zone is on AKDT after that.

Hawaii Standard Time

No clock changes

Hawaii Standard Time stays on HST all year, so its offset from UTC never moves.

Scheduling between the two

Working hours overlap from 10:00 am to 6:00 pm AKST, which is 9:00 am to 5:00 pm HST. Anything inside that window falls in the normal working day at both ends.

Hawaii Standard Time (HST) is used in all of Hawaii, which does not observe daylight saving
