01 — Alaska at a Glance
Alaska, by the numbers.
Alaska got area code 907 in 1957, ten years after the 1947 NANP rollout, once a submarine cable linked the territory to the network. It has never split or overlaid.
Its huge land area and small, scattered population meant 907 always had far more capacity than needed. It's the geographically largest area code in the US.
Demand has stayed low, pushing exhaustion projections decades out. Alaska isn't expected to need a second area code anytime soon.
Did you know?
A single area code, 907, covers all of Alaska — a landmass bigger than Texas, California, and Montana combined — making it one of only about a dozen U.S. states still served by just one original area code.

Calling Alaska: what to know
Time zones, dialing rules and area code status, with the sources we checked.
Time zone
Most of Alaska is on Alaska Time. The part of the Aleutian Islands west of 169°30′ W longitude is on Hawaii–Aleutian Time. The boundaries are set in federal regulations.
Dialing
Since October 24, 2021, every local call in Alaska has to be dialed with 907 plus the seven-digit number, so a call to 444-4444 became 907-444-4444. The Regulatory Commission of Alaska announced the change because 907 had numbers on the 988 exchange, which clashed with the new 988 lifeline code. Phone numbers themselves did not change.
Area code status
Alaska is served by a single area code, 907. We found no announced overlay or relief plan as of November 2026.
Good to know
- Alaska's Department of Transportation has said that about 82% of Alaska's communities are not connected to the road system.
