3/10/2024 - Had an alarm set for 2:00am this morning and Apple did not alarm! Daylight savings jumped right to 3:00am! Airplane to catch! I understand Daylights Savings and all but Apple may have an opportunity to assist/reminder of this!

Airports account for DST when displaying flight schedules. So, the departure and arrival times you see on your ticket or at the airport will reflect the local time with DST applied.
When Daylight Saving Time (DST) starts, clocks spring forward one hour, effectively losing the 2:00 am hour.
Apple devices are designed to automatically adjust the time for DST. So, any alarms set between 2:00 am and 2:59 am will automatically be shifted forward by one hour to the new 3:00 am time.
While you mentioned you understand DST, here are some tips to avoid missing alarms in the future:

My alarm was set for 2:15am and it went off at 3:15am. Apple isn’t the problem. There technically wasn’t a 2:15am today, but at least the alarm went off at what would have been the correct time. There’s no way to make a device think of everything! Knowing time changes AT 2 am, you should have set your alarm for 1 so that you would still be on time!
You lose an hour! So you said it! Alarms set at 2 should really shift to 1!
Where did I say this was Apples fault? If you read this “but Apple may have an opportunity to assist/reminder of this!”. My ask is that Apple has an opportunity, which is NOT faulting them. Yes. 2am does not exist technically. This scenario loosing 1 hr between 2 and 2:59 only happens once a year and yet not even in every state! I am just asking, as yes I take blame, but asking if they may have a way to alert this to the end user when this does occur and an alarm is set between 2-2:59.
Same. I’m standing in the airport line right now. My direct flight 4 and 1/2 hours changed to an all-day flight with 5 hour layover.
i am done relying on iPhone for my awake alarm.
Sorry, 1:59
