Los Angeles to Manila time
Manila is 15 hours ahead of Los Angeles. Los Angeles uses America/Los_Angeles (UTC−7); Manila uses Asia/Manila (UTC+8).
When the time difference changes
The two places don't switch daylight saving time on the same days, so the gap shifts during the year:
- Sun, Nov 1, 2026: Los Angeles falls back an hour. Then Manila is 16 hours ahead of Los Angeles.
- Sun, Mar 14, 2027: Los Angeles springs forward an hour. Then Manila is 15 hours ahead of Los Angeles.
Best times to meet
Working hours (9 AM to 5 PM) don't overlap today. The best compromise times are below.
- 1 4:00 PM in Los Angeles = 7:00 AM (Tue) in Manila
- 2 6:00 PM in Los Angeles = 9:00 AM (Tue) in Manila
- 3 7:00 PM in Los Angeles = 10:00 AM (Tue) in Manila
Jet lag and travel: Los Angeles to Manila
Your body clock shifts 9 hours later (westward, the easier direction), the shorter way round a 15-hour gap. Expect about 6 days to adjust at CDC average rates (1 h/day east, 1.5 h/day west).
- Before you fly: bed 1 hour later for 2–3 nights.
- On arrival: eat, sleep and get daylight on Manila time.
- Trips of 2 days or less: consider staying on Los Angeles time.
