It's an attempt to help get people back to flying after the pandemic sent global air travel down by 92%. The system looks forward to the day when travel may be determined not only by testing but by the need to show vaccination records. When it comes to testing, passengers may present paper documents in different languages and from labs unknown to authorities in a given country. Passengers can use the app to find participating labs and testing sites, retrieve lab results and complete health attestations.
