British Airways to trial mobile health passport, VeriFLY, on some flights
British Airways said it would trial a mobile health app on flights between London and the United States, as airlines line up technology to help overcome barriers to travel thrown up by the Covid-19 pandemic. BA said Friday it would trial the use of a mobile travel health passport, VeriFLY, following American Airlines, which is already using it. VeriFLY combines travel verification documents and Covid-19 test results on a phone app to ensure passengers are compliant with destination entry requirements. Certified customers can then be fast-tracked through the airport. Flying is currently at minimal levels, with flight volumes in Britain down more than 80 per cent due to lockdowns and restrictions which ban most people from travelling. <br/>
