Outlook Desktop - Working Hours and Locations not showing
I am glad that you are happy about the WLH feature. I don't believe Classic Outlook users have all the wonderful features that WHL has to offer. After my investigation, I will clarify the following questions. Also, it could be that I don't have the updates in classic yet. Nevertheless, here is what I understand.
- I don't believe you can manage your work hours in Outlook Classic. You must change them in the New Outlook and web versions.
- The WHL icons will not appear on the Profile Cards for you or your team.
- In New Outlook & Web, I can change my location for a specific future date by clicking on the WLH icon in the drop-down menu from the calendar.
I am also looking into whether these functionalities are on the backlog. I will keep you up to date with my learnings.

Hi Teresa_Cyrus
Well some good news! This morning I returned from holiday and an Office update to find that Working Locations are now showing on my Outlook desktop client in the Scheduling Assistant and in the Calendar. There doesn't seem to be any reference to this as a feature update on the Release Notes though. Anyways, am I being weird for saying how happy I was to see this? I don't think I've been this happy to see a feature change for quite some time! Now, I REALLY don't want to be moving to the new Outlook desktop. 
My new Outlook version information:
Thanks for all your help.
