Can I add time zones to alarms in the Clock app on iPhone?

I was wondering if it is possible to add time zones to alarms in the clock app. I took a cruise recently and I almost got late to dinner because my iPhone switched the time zone before the cruise did.

When a new alarm is created, the Default time zone would be set, which is the one that iPhone has. Alternatively, one can change the time zone to whatever country or city they want.

Check Settings -> General -> Date and Time -> Time Zone

By default your phone will automatically adjust its time based on location.

This can fall foul on cruise ships which generally follow 'ship time' based on departure port.

The Settings option lets you match your phone to the time zone used by the ship.
