The Lost Shabbat: Flying Across the Ocean

Flying across the Pacific can turn your calendar into a halachic puzzle.

The Hawaii Question

Hawaii's status remains disputed. It's recommended to observe two Shabbats.

Counting Omer in Flight

If flying from the US to Taiwan, you "lose" a day. Count the Omer without a blessing by local time.

Holiday in the Arctic

Where the sun doesn't set for 24 hours, defining "day" becomes critical. Avoid Arctic trips during Pesach.
