ichoor Blood does do a Mail in Hawaii test that is valid apparently as their lab is in the USA but it won’t work for my Monday departure since they are closed sundays, maybe that’s an option for you

I did a fake booking on the life labs site (the air Canada linked test in Ontario) and it does ask destination and what airline and departure time but (can only choose air Canada westjet or united operated by air Canada) but I doubt they’d print that on the form eh??
I have used Carbon through Alaska Airlines twice before and while they did ask for flight info when I made the booking, they did not ask for it when I actually took the test. So I am sure I could have entered any flight number. And the test results come from a lab so they definitely don’t include flight information. I think they ask just to make sure you are in the right time frame (within 72 hours) for the test. I am reasonably sure it will work but it would be nice to have an actual data point to confirm.

As of now, my SafeTravels is showing exempt with just my vaccine upload so hopefully I can get in before Ige changes the rules again.
