I travel frequently and set my flights as appointments in my calendar.
However, the starting times and ending times are in different time zones. Is
there a way to do this in outlook?

show two time zones and set the arrival time using the 'local' time zone for
the area you visit.

I know in the daily view I can swap time zones. But when setting up an
appointment, I want to say it starts in one time zone and ends in another
time zone. I don't see this in the appointment.

Outlook doesn't support that. Show the two zones so you can calculate the
correct local time if you need a landing time. (I add it to the appointment
as text, not in a time field, often in the subject field otherwise in
notes.)
