No, not really. Your aspect looks at all time as breaking with relativity
as you travel FTL. FTL still takes time its just perceptive time.. if
you actually did go FTL, time would still transverse between the places.
Relativistic speeds take place until you hit the barrier of FTL, but after
that, it should become transitive.
So, if the flight took 3 hours there, three hours back, the time you spent
on Mars still progresses, and you arrive back still 3 hours relative to your
initial starting point after you leave ;)
So, no time travel :)

I like that. Thomas Edison failed hundreds of times to create a light bulb
and when asked if the failures discouraged him, he said something like
"They aren't failures. I have succeeded in proving that those methods
don't work."
I hope they go for it. I'd love to spend a week on Mars or go for a cruise
around Jupiter.
Of course if the FTL component works, things will get weird.
Returning from a trip to find you didn't leave due to rescheduling.
Returning from a longer trip to find the last election turned out different
than you remember (no I don't have tickets).
Even longer trip, come back to a North America that never left Britain...
