Singapore Airlines has become the world's first airline to use the International Air Transport Association's (IATA) Travel Pass, a mobile application designed to show if passengers have been vaccinated against COVID-19 or tested negative for the coronavirus.
The pilot program is being tested on passengers travelling from Singapore to London from March 15 through 28. This marks the second phase of the airline's digital health verification process trials based on IATA's Travel Pass framework.
Passengers using mobile phones running on Apple's iOS can download the IATA Travel Pass app and create a digital ID comprised of their profile photo and passport information.
