Does the recopying not work?

You are probably trying to add a protected link. In this case, the link has a structure like this

https://emea01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/….

Use the tool at https://www.o365atp.com to make the link usable for FollowMe

We check your roster every 15 minutes for changes. We will send you a push notification if there are any changes.


Edelweiss Special: Times are not correct

Because Edelweiss sometimes does not publish times for the middle flights of a day in the calendar, we had to come up with a special solution: For flights where Edelweiss does not publish times in the calendar, we simply create fictitious times: We make two flights with block times of the same length and set a standard transit time of 1h between the flights.

Triangular flights

Here, too, we have the special situation that Edelweiss does not enter any times for the middle flights in your calendar. We have solved this in such a way that the middle legs of triangular flights last 30 minutes and the transit between the flights always lasts an hour.


Problems?

  1. Check whether you have a valid subscription. To do this, navigate to the Inapp menu of FollowMe
  2. Have you recreated your feed link in the meantime? Then you have to add the new feed to FollowMe in the import menu
