Not just travelers: one example is a message that has the following
details displayed:
- Date header = Wed, 22 Mar 2006 11:41:05 +0100
- Created in msg list = 22 Mar 2006, 10:41
- Created in msg view = 22 Mar 2006 12:41 

Now *that* is confusing, and I'm not even travelling...!

I would opt for a view mode "show all Created/Received in UTC" for
travellers' convenience, with the possbility to adjust the displayed
times to current time zone - for easy of understanding, that is,
hopping time zones is hard enough on you already.
