Airlines hope vaccine passports will deliver more relaxed travel restrictions, but are bracing for confusion. Various groups and countries are working on developing so-called vaccine passports aimed at allowing more travel. However, the groups said that vaccination should not be a requirement for domestic or international travel. The groups include the main US and international airline trade organizations, airline labour unions and the US Chamber of Commerce. Airlines are counting on widespread vaccinations to boost travel, and for vaccine passports to give a boost to highly lucrative international flying.
