Outlook opens ICS file with the timezone dropdown -


i have been trying ics file floating timezone setup. research suggests floating timezones not recommended, client has asked user downloading ics file in uk , 1 in both see same time.

the code have follows (minus message body);

begin:vcalendar prodid:-//microsoft corporation//outlook 14.0 mimedir//en version:2.0 method:publish x-ms-olk-forceinspectoropen:true begin:vtimezone tzid:gmt standard time begin:standard dtstart:16011028t020000 rrule:freq=yearly;byday=-1su;bymonth=10 tzoffsetfrom:+0000 tzoffsetto:-0000 end:standard begin:daylight dtstart:16010325t010000 rrule:freq=yearly;byday=-1su;bymonth=3 tzoffsetfrom:-0000 tzoffsetto:+0000 end:daylight end:vtimezone begin:vevent class:public created:20150609t083427z description:testing tuesday 09/06/2015 รข€“ 11.00-11.30\n dtend;tzid="gmt standard time":20150609t113000 dtstamp:20150609t083427z dtstart;tzid="gmt standard time":20150609t110000 last-modified:20150609t083427z location:la priority:5 sequence:0 summary;language=en-gb:test short event transp:opaque x-microsoft-cdo-busystatus:busy x-microsoft-cdo-importance:1 x-microsoft-disallow-counter:false x-ms-olk-autofilllocation:false x-ms-olk-conftype:0 begin:valarm trigger:-pt15m action:display description:reminder end:valarm end:vevent end:vcalendar 

i have set computer's timezone phoenix (utc -07:00), , opening ics file in outlook works in time displays 11:00-11:30 hope. however, outlook opens timezone drop downs displaying 'dublin, edinburgh, lisbon, london'. if course being run in think confusing users.

i have tried removing of vtimezone section, , tzid references within dtstart , dtend, or removing 1 or other, or changing them tzid tzid:america/phoenix, or adding z times, of these seems give me erratic timings. however, remove timezone drop down in outlook!

so questions are; 1. there way can tell outlook not open timezone drop down within ics file? 2. there better way me this, setting exact time of course , ability download anywhere in world same set time course?

thanks, , hope have written makes sense. have done hours of research this, seem going round in circles!

the standard way represent floating events corresponds second description (i.e. remove references tzid). in case like:

dtstart:20150609t110000 dtend:20150609t113000 

what outcome of such event on outlook side ?
