About Central European Summer Time (CEST)
Central European Summer Time (CEST, IANA: Europe/Berlin during DST window) is the summer-time variant of CET, set at UTC+2:00 — observed from the last Sunday of March to the last Sunday of October per EU Directive 2000/84/EC. CEST shares the same UTC offset as Eastern European Time (EET) (used by Greece, Romania, Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Bulgaria, Cyprus during winter), and is one hour ahead of Western European Summer Time (WEST). The 2018 European Commission proposal to abolish DST (with countries choosing to permanently stay on either standard time or summer time) has been delayed indefinitely as of 2024. CEST serves the same ~460 million population as CET across 27 European countries. The 'spring forward' transition at 02:00 CET on the last Sunday of March is one of the largest single coordinated time changes in human history. Affects: All European TV broadcast schedules (Eurovision Song Contest broadcast time), F1 European-round race start times, summer-music-festival schedules (Tomorrowland, Sziget, Glastonbury — UK on BST), and tourism arrival/check-in times in major European cities.
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.
