What are the best hours to schedule a call between Israel and AKDT?
No hour of the standard 9:00 am to 5:00 pm working day falls inside working hours on both sides.

|---|---|---|---|
| 6:00 pm | 7:00 am | neither side | evening in Israel, early morning in Alaska |

Does daylight saving change Israel to AKDT?
Israel Time is currently on IDT and changes next on Sunday, October 25, 2026, when the clock falls back from 1:59 am to 1:00 am and the offset moves from UTC+3 to UTC+2.
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 Israel ahead of or behind AKDT?
Israel is ahead of AKDT by 11 hours: when it is 12:00 pm in Israel, it is 1:00 am in Alaska. One wrinkle worth knowing: IST and IDT are two names for the same zone, not two zones. Israel Time reads IST in winter and IDT in summer. When somebody types "israel to akst" they nearly always mean the zone rather than the literal winter offset, so this page resolves ISRAEL to Asia/Jerusalem and AKST to America/Anchorage and applies whichever offset is genuinely in force on the day.
Israel Time covers Jerusalem and Tel Aviv. The abbreviation IST is shared with India, which is why this page names the country. Alaska Time covers Anchorage, Juneau and Fairbanks. The identifiers behind them are Asia/Jerusalem and America/Anchorage, which is what any calendar or scheduling system should be storing rather than a fixed number of hours.
