This case doesn't seem tricky to me for as long as both time
specifications have time zone information.

For cross-timezone flights, the VCS calendar appointments airlines send
out by email to customers typically have start and end times given in
UTC. The user's calendaring app will convert that to the time zone in
which the OS of the user's laptop currently pretends to be.

Same thing for flights spanning DST changeovers, btw. A UTC
specification is unambiguous in this case, too.
