ZD: Even according to R’ Tukatzinsky, it is not the same issue. Hawaii is totally west of his dateline so he holds that on what we call Friday, is Shabbos in Hawaii. His dateline runs through Alaska (part of the state is to the east and the majority is to the west. We don’t know if he holds that the dateline zig zags to allow for contiguous land area to be in the same time zone (Australia) (shita of the Chazon Ish) therefore it only a safeik. See the Dateline map on the Star-K website.
