Virgin Atlantic is the latest airline – and first UK carrier – to launch a trial of the Iata Travel Pass as it gears up for a restart in international travel.

Virgin Atlantic has struck another deal for sustainable aviation fuel

The Travel Pass smartphone app will be launched on Virgin’s flights from the UK to Barbados from 16 April allowing passengers to create a digital ID, including evidence of a negative Covid-19 test, and check they comply with health regulations at their destination.

In a further move, the carrier is also to launch a trial of TrustAssure’s platform, which allows pre-departure Covid-19 test documents to be verified digitally, on its flights to the US from 29 March.
