Frequently Asked Questions
What is the time difference between AEDT and AKST?
During standard time, Alaska Standard Time is 20 hours behind Australian Eastern Daylight Time.
When does AEDT start and end?
AEDT begins on the first Sunday in October at 02:00 local time, when clocks spring forward one hour from AEST (UTC+10) to AEDT (UTC+11). It ends on the first Sunday in April at 03:00 local time, when clocks fall back to AEST. In 2026, AEDT starts on October 4 and ends on April 5 — following the Southern Hemisphere summer calendar, which runs opposite to DST schedules in Europe and North America.
Is Brisbane on AEDT?
No — Queensland, including Brisbane, does not observe Daylight Saving Time and remains on AEST (UTC+10) year-round. During the AEDT period from October through April, Sydney and Melbourne advance to UTC+11 while Brisbane stays at UTC+10, creating a one-hour gap between cities that share nearly the same longitude and are otherwise in the same time zone for the other six months of the year.
Does Alaska observe Daylight Saving Time?
Most of Alaska observes Daylight Saving Time, transitioning from Alaska Standard Time (AKST, UTC-09:00) to Alaska Daylight Time (AKDT, UTC-08:00) on the second Sunday in March. Clocks revert to AKST on the first Sunday in November, following the same DST schedule as the contiguous United States.
Is all of Alaska on Alaska Standard Time?
Almost all of Alaska uses AKST, but the westernmost Aleutian Island communities — those located west of 169° 30′ W longitude — observe Hawaii-Aleutian Time (HST, UTC-10:00) instead. This exception reflects their extreme western geographic position, which places them closer in solar time to Hawaii than to Anchorage.
