As U.S. borders reopen to foreign visitors, many Canadians will be heading south to visit friends and relatives or escape the winter cold. For those flying with Delta, the airline is making it easier with new functionality in its FlyReady solution.

Customers on nearly all international routes bound for the U.S. will be able to use new built-in functionality in Delta FlyReady to directly upload and verify their COVID-19 vaccination certificate and negative COVID-19 test results, starting November 8.

Because the solution is integrated directly into Delta's systems, there is no need for customers to download an additional app - eligible customers can access Delta FlyReady through a link found in their pre-flight email or My Trips before travel.

The tool simplifies the travel experience by sharing a streamlined view of the entry requirements at the customer's destination, including those beyond health documentation.

"In the months ahead, many of our customers will be travelling to the U.S. for the first time since before the pandemic, reuniting with family members, friends or colleagues and reclaiming the joy of travel," said Rhonda Crawford, S.V.P. - Global Distribution & Digital Strategy.

"And though international travel looks a lot different these days, we've listened to customers to make updates that will give them more personalized and better access to the information they say is important - removing the guesswork from travel plans and making room for them to enjoy their journey."
