Just a quick question. I haven't flown at all in more than 2 years. I'm doing YYZ-YVR. So I will need to upload the vaxx document when I check in? Or scan the QR code? Do I use the QR code from my 2 vaxx or do I use my QR code from the booster? I heard that the booster one gives problem to the AC app but I may be wrong. Thanks a bunch !!!!

*If you are planning on travelling internationally in the summer or fall I'd definitely pick the booster document as some countries (Germany, starting Oct 1) will be requiring the booster to be considered fully vaxxed... though of course that may change!

I know that some of you have been asked to furnish your docs (despite having ADOC already) when checking-in with an agent/concierge... I still have yet to be asked. I am still curious as to why one would be asked despite having gone through the process, being approved, have ADOC... I mean, getting asked after all that kind of defeats the purpose?

The LAX MLL asked if I had a paper boarding pass, I said no, and before she even looked at my phone or pulled up my PNR, she demanded my proof of vaccination (and maybe something else?), and then a bit later demanded my passport, even though I had checked in with NEXUS.
At the gate, they were requiring everyone to board with paper BPs.

On Sunday, despite not having uploaded anything, I got the approval notification, and the green box on my BP.

They still Q14 your BP, depending on where you are going (SYD, for example)

I'm flying PIT-YYZ-FRA tomorrow, I was not offered a chance to upload my vaccine documents, am I missing something, a link to click to let me upload? I have my boarding passes on my mobile, but I assume without an upload it means I'll have to be checked in PIT? Can that be done at the gate?

Yesterday I was sitting on my couch drinking a beer three hours after a DEN-YVR-YYJ trip when I received the "your document has been approved" email message for the YVR-YYJ leg. I'm glad they let me fly without me proving the proof. The DEN-YVR was approved a week ago automatically.
I don't have another trip until late May so of course my first thought was a really (really) early approval and not a super useless late one.

Trying to check in to a flight ex-Europe to YYZ tomorrow, with a 24 hour connection then on to SFO on Monday. The app and site won’t let me check in since I don’t yet have a negative Covid test for the US. Won’t take that until I’m in Toronto.
Is there any way I can get an electronic boarding pass just for the first leg of my trip, to YYZ?
Edit: contacted the concierge and they sent me the boarding pass link. Would be good to know for others if there’s a way self-service way around this.

I have a BP for YYZ-SFO tomorrow, and I haven't uploaded anything. You don't need to upload COVID documents to get a boarding pass.

This morning I changed a domestic 10:25 dep for a 07:35 dep (not a SDC, but a FP last minute change) and on checkin a minute later it required that I upload my vax info (first time since Dec) ... not clear why it wouldn't have transferred automatically (I suppose technically I was fully changing a flight, but approved today is same as approved last week). It was no big deal as it was instantly approved once loaded.
