Brett’s iTip: The iPhone will update it’s time to whatever time zone you’re in but you can change this setting in Settings - General - Date & Time. Even if the iPhone’s time keeps updated, you can choose to have your Calendar stay on a specific time zone by going to Settings - Calendar and toggle on Time Zone Override. I personally leave this off so that my calendar updates to the local time zone, but some folks may want to force their Calendar to stay in a specific time zone.
