AA.com does not recognize my reservation made on BA.com

I made reservation on BA.com with outbound on BA and inbound on AA. BA gave me Amadeus PNR. AA.com doesn't recognize reservation with Amadeus PNR or by using simple search. Is there any way to get equivilent Sabre PNR?

Why would you input your Amadeus PNR on AA's website? They do not use the same system! You need AA's PNR.

Plug your BA pnr into checkmytrip.com When you look at the AA sectors it should show the AA pnr.

Seems like the world now revolves around Amadeus as more and more carriers are now hosted by them...

The reverse will work with BA.com. That is, if you make a reservation on Sabre (e.g. on U.S. AA.com) that has a BA segment, you can input the Sabre PNR Locator on BA.com and it will retrieve the Amadeus reservation. So BA.com (or Amadeus) indexes the booking source's PNR Locator in addition to its own for retrieval purposes. And that's a big ^
