Default Riddle me this?? Daylight savings time

Anyone good at math?
I’m giving family a ride to the airport this Saturday (Nov 4th) evening, their flight is at 01:40 am PST on Sunday (Nov 5th) The clocks fall back one hour at 02:00 am PST on Sunday (Nov 5th). In effect it will be 01:40 am twice exactly 60 minutes apart.
Which 01:40am is the flight at? The 1st or the 2nd time?

Ps, the flight itinerary makes no mention of this nor does it denote PST or PDT

I would take a gamble and show up for the second time. No sense waiting around that extra hour if you are wrong and come too early.

If by family you mean mother in law I would go with the first 1. No sense in keeping her around the extra hour, and if you take the gamble and miss the flight....... she stays even longer

If it's a flight departure I'd go with the earlier option.

Kind of annoying they didn't specify PST vs PDT. Might be worth calling to confirm. But the safer bet in any case is get there early.

Oh I didn't realize it was your mother-in-law. I would go with the earlier option might also get her there extra earlier because in all the confusion of the time changes the airline might screw it up and leave an extra hour early.
