Google Calendar problems

When I import one flight into Google Calendar, it deletes the previously imported flight from my calendar. Anybody else having this issue?

Unless this is related to an SWA flight and saving from the app, you might want to check in the Google Help Forum.

Yes, I have this problem. It only happens with Southwest ics files. When I import ics files from other sources (airlines, Expedia, etc) they work fine. There's something malformed in the SWA ics files. It's very frustrating.

The opposite, I wish my calendar did this when I changed flights.

Note that this isn't happening when we change our flights. When I download the ics files, I get one file for the outgoing flight and one file for the returning flight. For example:

 

1. Download PDX_to_OAK.ics and OAK_to_PDX.ics files.

2. Import PDX_to_OAK.ics into Google Calendar. Adds outbound flight to calendar.

3. Import OAK_to_PDX.ics into Google Calendar. Adds returning flight to calendar AND deletes outbound flight from calendar.

 

So I only end up with the returning flight on my calendar.
