When you enter a calendar event using the Floating Time timezone, the times you enter will always be shown when you later view the calendar event.
  • So if you are flying from Chicago to Los Angeles:
    • Enter the Central time zone takeoff time as a floating time.
    • Enter the Pacific time zone landing time as a floating time.
    • No matter what time zone you set in the calendar viewing choice, a floating time event always shows the time you entered originally.
  • To demonstrate how this works:
    • Create a Floating time zone item in the FastMail calendar.
    • View the calendar while changing the as in (time zone) at the top to various time zones.
    • The calendar items created in specific time zones will change, but the items created in the floating time zone will stay the same.
    • Items created in the floating time zone will always show the same time, no matter what time zone you are viewing in.
