How Time Zone Conversion Works
Time zone conversion works by comparing the UTC offset of one location to another. Every city or region is measured relative to Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), which acts as the global reference point for civil time.
NZDT is 22 hours ahead of AKST (standard time).
Daylight Saving Time: Both AKST and NZDT observe DST, but on opposite-hemisphere schedules. When one springs forward, the other falls back — so the offset shifts four times per year instead of the usual two.

Hyder, Alaska (population ~50, southeastern panhandle) de facto follows Pacific Time to align with neighboring Stewart, British Columbia — it is technically in AKST territory but observes PST/PDT in practice. This is an extreme edge case and does not affect zone coverage.
