Amadeus MB Command: Move Screen to Bottom

A complete guide to the MB command in Amadeus — how to move the screen display directly to the bottom of long information.

Long Amadeus displays can run far past a single screen. Availability lists with dozens of flights, schedules covering multiple days, queue listings, and detailed PNRs all extend beyond what fits in one view. Scrolling through them line by line is fine when you need precision — but sometimes you simply want to reach the end of the display as quickly as possible. The MB command is the Amadeus entry that handles this. It moves the displayed screen directly to the bottom of the current information, in a single entry. This guide explains what MB does, its syntax, and when it should be used.

What Does the MB Command Do?

MB is the Amadeus GDS command used to move the screen display to the bottom.

Category: Screen Navigation.

It moves the displayed screen directly to the bottom of the current information.

Unlike MDN, which moves the screen down by a specific number of lines, MB jumps to the very end of the display in one step. It is a purely navigational command — it does not retrieve data, run a new search, or modify the PNR. It simply repositions the visible area so you are looking at the last lines of the current display.

Syntax

Enter the command on its own:

MB

This moves the display to the bottom of the current screen, bringing the last lines of the information into view immediately.

When to Use MB

Use MB when you want to quickly move to the bottom of a long Amadeus display. Typical scenarios include:

Jumping to the end of a long availability list to check the last flights of the day.
Reaching the bottom of a schedule or timetable to see late departures.
Reviewing the last entries in a queue listing or long report.
Checking the end of a detailed PNR or history display.
Skipping past sections you have already reviewed to reach what is at the end.
Confirming that you have seen all the options before making a decision.
Reaching the bottom of a long search result when you need the last matching entry.

How MB Fits Into Your PNR Management Workflow

A typical session using MB might look like this:

Open a long availability display with AN or a schedule with SN.
Review the flights shown at the top of the display.
Enter MB to jump directly to the bottom of the display.
Review the last entries and confirm whether any of them fit the customer’s requirements.
If you need to review the middle of the display, use MUN to scroll up by a specific number of lines.
Sell the chosen segment with SS.
If the screen has been cleared, use MP to redisplay it.

How MB Relates to Other Screen Navigation Commands

MB → moves the screen display directly to the bottom.
MT → moves the screen display directly to the top.
MDN → moves the screen down by a specific number of lines.
MUN → moves the screen up by a specific number of lines.
MD → moves the screen down by the default amount.
MU → moves the screen up by the default amount.
MP → redisplays a screen that has been cleared.
ACR → redisplays availability for the same or a different date.

The distinction matters: MB jumps to the bottom of the display in one step; MDN scrolls down by a specific number of lines; MUN scrolls up by a specific number; MP restores a cleared screen. Use MB when you want to reach the end quickly, and MDN or MUN when you need precise movement.

Important: MB is purely a screen-navigation command. It does not re-run a search, re-retrieve a PNR, or modify the data on display — it simply repositions the visible area so you are looking at the last lines of the current screen.

If the display has been replaced by another request — for example a new availability search or a PNR retrieval — MB will move to the bottom of the current screen, not the previous one. Re-enter the original request if you need to bring back that data.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the MB command do in Amadeus?

MB moves the displayed screen directly to the bottom of the current information, in a single entry.

Does MB retrieve new data?

No. MB is a screen navigation command only. It moves the visible area to the bottom of the current display without retrieving or modifying anything.

How is MB different from MDN?

MDN moves the screen down by a specific number of lines, for precise scrolling. MB jumps directly to the bottom of the display in one step.

How do I move back to the top of the display?

Use the corresponding command MT to move the screen display directly to the top.

How is MB different from MP?

MP restores a screen that has been cleared. MB moves the current screen to the bottom of its content.

Conclusion

The MB command is the jump-to-bottom tool in Amadeus. Use MB to move the screen display directly to the bottom of the current information in a single step — useful when you need to check the last flights of the day, the last entries in a queue listing, or simply confirm that you have seen everything the display has to offer. It is a simple but efficient navigation command that saves time when working with long availability lists, schedules, timetables, queue listings, and detailed PNR displays. Remember that MB scrolls only; it does not retrieve data or modify anything, and it works within the current screen. If the display has been cleared, use MP to bring it back, and if the data has been replaced by another request, re-enter the original entry — for example AN for availability, RT for a PNR, or SN for a schedule. Paired with MT for jumping to the top, MDN and MUN for precise line-by-line scrolling, MP for restoring cleared screens, and ACR for redisplaying availability, MB completes your screen navigation toolkit and keeps your workflow fast when working with long displays.
