HOW DO TRAVELERS USE VERIFLY?
After creating a secure profile on your mobile device, the VeriFLY app will prompt you to confirm the details of your trip, including a) flight information, and b) a vaccine health credential and/or negative COVID-19 test that fulfills your travel destination’s requirements. As you verify each required element for travel, the app verifies that your test matches your destination’s requirements and displays a simple pass or fail message. A traveler will thus have confidence that they meet the destination’s COVID-19 requirements before they start their travel journey. This simple message will also help streamline the check-in and documentation verification process at the airport before your departure. The message also provides you with reminders when your travel window is coming to a close or once your credential has expired.
