Emirates says it is expanding the use of the IATA Travel
Pass digital health passport to all of its routes in the coming weeks.
The airline currently offers passengers the option to use the
test result and vaccination status app on flights to ten cities, including
London, Amsterdam, Paris, Frankfurt, Barcelona and Madrid.
Adel Al Redha, Emirates’ chief operating officer said: “Over
the past months, we have really accelerated our biometric, contactless and
digital travel verification projects to provide our customers with even greater
convenience and assurance when they fly with Emirates.
“From our biometrics path at Dubai International (DXB) to initiatives
like the IATA Travel Pass and integrations with the health authority databases,
these projects deliver multiple benefits from better customer experiences to
the reduced use of paper, and improved efficiency and reliability in travel
document checks.”
The IATA Travel Pass app is now available for both iOS and Android and for users with non-biometric passports.
