I flew from one sea level location to another. My Fenix 6 now lists my altitude acclimation at 850m. My altimeter widget currently records my correct altitude (sea level).
Any thoughts on how to fix?
Thank you.

Commercial aircraft is pressurised to maintain air pressure that corresponds to about 2400 m of altitude. Depending on the flight duration, your body might have indeed acclimatized to an altitude higher than sea level. So I'd wager the result is correct.
Hi. Thank you for the reply. The flight was only 50min duration and occurred 4 days ago.
I'm not a specialist on altitude effects on human body and I don't know if an hour at 2400 m is enough to result in acclimatization to 850 m, however I think the acclimatization effect can last for several days, perhaps even longer.
