About Alaska Standard Time (AKST)

Alaska Standard Time (AKST, IANA: America/Anchorage and America/Juneau) is the time zone for most of the State of Alaska, set at UTC-9:00. AKST is observed from the first Sunday in November to the second Sunday in March per the Uniform Time Act of 1966 + Energy Policy Act of 2005; Alaska switches to Alaska Daylight Time (AKDT = UTC-8:00) for the remainder of the year. The vast Alaska time zone covers ~3,200 km east-to-west — from Ketchikan to Atka in the Aleutians — and is the only US time zone that spans more than 1,000 miles longitudinally, meaning solar-noon in different Alaska cities varies by over an hour from local clock time. Major population centers: Anchorage (~290,000), Fairbanks (~95,000), Juneau state capital (~32,000). Used in coordination of cruise-ship schedules through the Inside Passage, North Slope oil-pipeline operations, US Air Force JBER and Eielson AFB activities, and Alaska commercial fishing season openings managed by ADF&G.

About Gulf Standard Time (GST)
