About AEST and PST
Australian Eastern Time (AEST/AEDT) is used in Sydney, Melbourne, Canberra and Brisbane. Sydney and Melbourne shift to AEDT from October to April; Brisbane stays on AEST.
US Pacific Time (PST/PDT) is used in Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, San Diego and Vancouver. Clocks shift to PDT (daylight time) from March to November.
Time difference between AEST and PST
PST is 19 hours behind AEST in winter (January) and 17 hours behind AEST in summer (July), because of daylight saving changes. The clocks and table above are computed live from the official IANA time zone database in your browser, so daylight saving transitions are always already included.
Best hours for meetings
Scan the table for rows where both sides land inside working hours (9:00 to 18:00). Rows where one side is early morning or late evening are workable for a quick call; avoid rows where either side is in the middle of the night. To line up three or more cities at once, use the time zone converter and meeting planner.
