Converting Atlantic Standard Time to Hawaii Standard Time
Atlantic Standard Time (AST) and Hawaii Standard Time (HST) are separated by a 6 hours time difference. HST is 6 hours behind AST. AST is UTC-4, used in Canada, Puerto Rico, US Virgin Islands, while HST is UTC-10, used in United States.
When converting from AST to HST, the key reference points to remember are: 9:00 AM AST equals 3:00 AM HST, 12:00 PM noon AST equals 6:00 AM HST, and 5:00 PM AST equals 11:00 AM HST. The conversion table above shows every hour of the day mapped between these two time zones.
Scheduling Across AST and HST
For professionals scheduling meetings between AST and HST, finding overlapping business hours is essential. Standard business hours are typically 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM in each time zone. Given the 6 hours difference, the window of overlap may be limited. Use the highlighted working hours in the conversion table above to quickly identify suitable meeting times.
Daylight Saving Time Considerations
AST observes Daylight Saving Time, switching to ADT (UTC-3) during summer months. HST does not observe DST, staying at UTC-10 year-round. During DST transitions, the time difference between these zones may temporarily change by 1 hour. Always verify the current offset during spring and fall transition periods.
