Air France did implement its ReadyToFly program and it is now more broadly available. I assume right now it's a manual check before any eligible flight (to fly CDG-ATH, we had to send our proof of vaccination and the Greek PLF).

One can think that it may be more broadly available with the extension of this pass, as part of the AF Protect protocole. That being said, I hardly think we'll ever see a vaccination status "linked" to a flyer profile, as I think that by law they are not allowed to store this information; but merely controlling it.

FYI, they outsource this document check to a company called SMOOSS.
