Ammon News - The international aviation industry organization IATA wants to facilitate international travel. The app should be available early next year.

Information about travel requirements, such as mandatory tests or vaccinations, must be made available to travelers in the passport, but it must also be easy to see whether passengers meet those requirements. As a result, governments, laboratories, airlines and travelers must be able to provide information that can then be linked in that app.

In doing so, IATA uses software it previously developed to check whether travelers have the correct visas.

The trade association developed the app together with aviation group IAG, the parent company of British Airways, Iberia and Vueling, among others. It will also be testing the app with that concern in the near future.

According to the industry association, the app does not store data and uses the blockchain. iPhone users can start using the app in the first quarter of next year, IATA expects. People with an Android phone have to wait until the second quarter.

The Australian airline Qantas has already announced that it is looking at whether a vaccination can be made mandatory for international travel to and from Australia. When asked, the Dutch Transavia informed RTL Nieuws that there is still too much uncertainty about such a vaccination obligation and that their focus is now on testing.
