What are the best hours to schedule a call between AKDT and Israel?

Does daylight saving change AKDT to Israel?
Alaska Time is currently on AKDT and changes next on Sunday, November 1, 2026, when the clock falls back from 1:59 am to 1:00 am and the offset moves from UTC-8 to UTC-9.

Because the two sides do not move together, the answer to this conversion changes during the year. The United States changes on the second Sunday in March and the first Sunday in November, while the United Kingdom and European Union change on the last Sunday in March and the last Sunday in October. Those dates are weeks apart, which opens a window each spring and autumn where the usual gap is an hour out. The table above is built for today, not for an average day.
Is AKDT ahead of or behind Israel?
AKDT is behind Israel by 11 hours: when it is 12:00 pm in Alaska, it is 11:00 pm in Israel. One wrinkle worth knowing: AKST and AKDT are two names for the same zone, not two zones. Alaska Time reads AKST in winter and AKDT in summer. When somebody types "akst to israel" they nearly always mean the zone rather than the literal winter offset, so this page resolves AKST to America/Anchorage and ISRAEL to Asia/Jerusalem and applies whichever offset is genuinely in force on the day.
Alaska Time covers Anchorage, Juneau and Fairbanks. Israel Time covers Jerusalem and Tel Aviv. The abbreviation IST is shared with India, which is why this page names the country. The identifiers behind them are America/Anchorage and Asia/Jerusalem, which is what any calendar or scheduling system should be storing rather than a fixed number of hours.
