Could they have done it better? Yes.
Is it much better than nothing? Yes.
I find if I send to outlook, and open the ICS file; then modify the ending time of the flight to be correct; then send it again, and change the starting time of the return flight; it is not so bad.
MUCH better than me forgetting to put it on the calender like I did 3 weeks ago on return from SMF. Had Thursday flight, that I was at Airport on friday for.
This is where being nice to the agents, and bringing occasional chocolates; and so forth helps.
...now if the upgrades would start coming through on the dfw-smf route, that is a tough upgrade..

I CAN see why there should be a SECOND button to send Outlook (by flight). And then I would REALLY want exact minutes!
