American Airlines expands its acceptance of VeriFLY app at all airports

February 4 - American Airlines continues to make it easier for customers to travel to and from international destinations by expanding its acceptance of VeriFLY, the mobile health wallet that simplifies testing verification requirements.

Starting Wednesday, February 3, customers traveling from all of American’s domestic airports to eight countries will have the option to use the free VeriFLY app to upload required travel documents such as negative coronavirus (COVID-19) test results, and show those credentials in order to travel on American. Previously, the airline accepted the app for outbound travel from the United States only from the airline’s hub at Miami International Airport (MIA).

Where customers can use VeriFLY

Customers can use the VeriFLY app for document verification when traveling on the following American Airlines-operated routes:

• International flights to the U.S.
• Direct and connecting flights from American’s domestic airports to:
• United Kingdom
• Canada
• Jamaica
• Chile
• Colombia
• El Salvador
• Honduras
• Guatemala

For customers traveling from London to the U.S., American’s joint business partner, British Airways, will begin trialing VeriFLY’s mobile health passport starting February 4. The two airlines are the first trans-Atlantic joint business alliance that will accept a common mobile health passport for those eligible customers who are permitted to fly between the United States and the United Kingdom.
