Individual availability zones can be identified using the API.
ec2-describe-reserved-instances-offerings --region
will tell you what the zone's identifier is.
After you list the permanent identifiers, you can match them up to find out if your us-east-1a matches my -1d.
This Alestic article shows how to label them all.
