I don't know if ctrl+arrow is the "typical" way to navigate through a
calendar but I've found that if unmodified arrows don't work, then I try
ctrl+arrows.

Of course, with a screen reader running, the unmodified arrow keys will
walk the accessibility tree and not navigate the calendar unless the
calendar goes into forms/application mode, so perhaps that's why some
calendars choose to use ctrl+arrow to navigate.
