EVA Air today announced the launch of the ICC AOKpass digital health passport application on flights between Taipei and both SFO and LAX. Using the app, travelers will be able to securely verify their COVID-19 test results with EVA from laboratories approved by local health authorities. They will benefit from fast-track channels in San Francisco and Los Angeles, while retaining the privacy of their personal health data. Deployments of ICC AOKpass have already involved 13 countries and over 500 flights, reflecting its strong focus on forming local, regional and global alliances for interoperability across jurisdictions and industries.
EVA Air commented, “Starting this March, we started working with digital-solution-provider Affinidi and joining Singapore and Malaysia in a pilot program. In order to extend the service, we are delighted to be launching another pilot of this leading solution. It is vitally important that our passengers’ health is protected, their data is secure and they have a convenient travel experience. ICC AOKpass supports all these three key aims and the pilot will be assisted by our trusted medical partner, MedAire. By running a six-week pilot we will be able to see the consistent benefits to our passengers.”
