Egyptair can't find reservation in MMB
Hi folks just bought two internal one way flights on Egyptair. The travel in Egypt is in early March. I have emails with conformed reservations plus my CC has been charged, Booking does not appear in MMB or checkmytrip. Is this normal. Is there a time lag for reservation to post? It's night in the US and can't call resevations.

Why does everyone assume that every airline uses AMADEUS and therefore you can use MMB and Checkmytrip.com?
Perhaps you can only access your booking through MS's website?

I called Egyptair in the US. Turns out I had to use the passenger's first name for some reason in tandem with the PNR as he claimed that's how it was in the system. Not sure what that really meant because I did sign in (using first name) while talking to him and the passenger names are listed correctly in all tickets. On querying the need to sign in with the first name he was quite nonchalant in stating that was how it was in the system and that "first name, last name, they don't really cares...there is no problem."
Upshot is I can now access the reservation on both the Egyptair site and checkmytrip to monitor any changes to the flights which are almost 3 months away.
