United Airlines Adds A Step To Check-In: Stating You Don't Have COVID-19 Symptoms
Travelers must review the checklist when checking in online or at the airport and confirm — similar to how passengers must affirm they're not bringing explosives or banned materials on board.
United Airlines will now require passengers to complete a "health self-assessment" as part of its check-in process. It's the latest effort by a U.S. airline to assure passengers that it's safe to fly as the coronavirus pandemic continues.
The airline's "Ready-to-Fly" checklist does not involve temperature checks or for the virus. Instead, travelers must review the checklist when checking in online and click "Accept," or confirm it verbally to a gate agent â similar to how passengers must affirm they're not bringing explosives or banned materials on board.
