Well, using Google Calendar was a good idea, but came up short on execution. It has a really weird error. I load flight info from AA.com to Outlook using .ics files. They go into Outlook fine. But when I send invitations from Outlook to my Google address it things everything from AA is the same. So if I put 6 different itineraries in Outlook and send invitations to Google for each, only the last one is on my Google calendar when it is finished. If I resend one of the other ones, it comes back, deleting the last one. They are all fine in Outlook. Bizarre stuff. Apparently something in the .ics file that Outlook reads to see multiple events, while Google reads it and sees an update to a previous event. All the non-AA things transferred fine. Where is that drawing board........
