Thanks, that answered my question on the other Thread!!

As my booking is BA-BA-BA-BA on 125- stock, I would have expected that!

On a related note, anyone know how to add United, AA and JetBlue flights given that they have SABRE references?

AA PNRs cannot be added since AA does not allow third party access to it's bookings.

Generally I think Sabre was supported but I have a feeling it may not be now?

As KARFA notes, you can't get updates of AA bookings in 3rd party apps. However, you can add AA (and any other airline, including FR, U2 etc) bookings to MyFlights if you have a Tripit account and you sync it with MyFlights.

When you email the itinerary to Tripit, it should automatically download to MyFlights. Of course you won't get notifications of updates, but at least the original bookings will be there. You may also get some updates from Tripit such as delays / gate changes on the day (they send these as teasers if you don't have a Tripit Pro account).

I'm perfectly happy to be slapped down, but would it be useful merging this Thread with the extant >>> http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/briti...ights-app.html

I've ended up cross-posting, and thought it might be useful to have all discussion in one place.

I got one from an past reservation on HG as well.

I've had multiple schedule changes coming through today from both BA (text and email) and MFT without a notification from myflights which I suspect is just down to the reduced checking frequency (twice a day) of myflights checking the booking info against the amadeus servers.

Another one of those busy days on the MyFlights app. All my BA bookings got flagged up with highlighted PNR numbers. Someone must have been tinkering somewhere.

Still loving the app, thanks schofs ^

Lots of PNR numbers being added to certain fields on 5 of my bookings, no notification from MyFlightsapp though. Assume the changes took place after the morning check of the servers but before the evening check not yet taken place.

Same here! It looks like the BABS numbers are now being migrated to being just the PNR codes. I'm sure this is one of the final stages of the FLY integration.

I've ticketed Mrs. greg5 on a Finnair flight so she can join me on part of a work trip. However, I can't add her reservation into the app. She does have two last names in the form:

maidenname mylastname

Any ideas what might be amiss? My reservation goes in fine.

Works fine with classic.checkmytrip.com, and with Finnair.com.

It takes like 10 hours for any notification. NOT COOL!
