Aside: I don't know who wrote the copy on this page, but "By connecting to the Internet address http://www.checkmytrip.com, you access Amadeus CheckMyTrip" is possibly the most overwrought way of describing how to get to a web site that I've heard since the 1990s.

Downloaded the Amadeus app just to see how useless it was. Indeed it is useless compared to MyFlights, no surprise there.
I have a flight to Grenada on Saturday. The Amadeus app is helpfully showing my a picture of a local landmark at my destination: the Alhambra Palace in Granada. Well, I've heard it's an easy enough mistake to make...

So this explains why I am seeing this on the website, but not getting any mails or seeing the booking actually change on MyFlights:
At least the website has been updated today to explain the situation!
So sad it's gone!

I just left a scathing review (see below) - lets hope it posts. How long do the reviews take to post in general?
Doesn't do what it says on the tin!
A very limited app with little to know added value. The purpose of a PNR tracking app is to show you all the relevant information about your booking and any changes to it. So showing me my flight time is the only boxed checked on this app. The 'MyFlights' app I was using until Amadeus decided to block access - had PNR, E-Ticket#, Seat#, Class & Fare type, Aircraft type, and most importantly it had an alerting system to any changes made to the above components so a traveler could proactively check if changes impact their travel itinerary.
CheckMyTrip - either add all of the above components to your app or get in touch with the developer of 'MyFlights' and collaborate in providing an added value service to your customers/users.
In the meantime - please reinstate the API to 'MyFlights' app so us frequent travelers can continue to manage travel plans accordingly.
