More Airlines Offering Vaccine Status on an App

British Airways is planning to allow people to register their vaccination status on its smart phone app. Under the plans, people who have had both jabs will be able to register their status. The airline’s chief executive, Sean Doyle, hailed the UK’s “great progress” in tackling the pandemic. He has called for vaccinated people to be allowed unrestricted options for international travel. “Those who have not been vaccinated should be able to travel with a negative test result,” he said. BA wants the government to support digital health apps which can be used to verify a vaccination or negative Covid-19 test results. (Source: PLANETSKI)
