Delta always asks me for this info when returning to US via it's "FlyReady" process -- https://www.delta.com/us/en/travel-p...ontact-tracing
AA form looks to be here -- https://www.aa.com/contactus/forms/c...contacttracing
Info on requirement is available here - https://www.cdc.gov/port-health/lega...tact-info.html
On BA site, they refer to it as Advance Passenger Information instead of contact tracing.

I just got an email from AA saying
The U.S. Government requires each passenger flying to the United States to provide complete and accurate contact information. Complete the contact tracing form now or you won't be allowed to check-in or board your flight.
I just flew with BA a month before and this wasnt asked. And when clicking on the form to submit it says we cant and says this
We are unable to retrieve your reservation with the information provided. Please verify your information and re-submit.
is this an error? Ive never had to do this and the form is not working.

This link from AA also doesn't work.https://www.aa.com/contactus/forms/c...contacttracing
The form can't be completed. It asked for a name but there is no place to put a name?
Are they really not going to let us board if we don't completed...

That's a new one to me. I do have to fill this out every time I come back to the States, yes. And it's not easy to get the link to work. I think either the app or the email fails and I have to go to the other, etc. However, I always managed to do it and never once had to do it at the airport, including when I do have to check in at the airport. Wonder if it's another BA "efficiency" if they do that? I only go outbound with BA, but back via AA generally.

That is quite true, but often not the case. AA IT being the great decider. Sometimes the info that you submit beforehand sticks and sometimes it doesnt.

Correct, Ive always completed it via the email link or website (manage reservations) and have never received an email confirmation. Most recently last week ex-LHR. Keep wondering if well be doing this indefinitely

I would hope the current adminstration abolishes all of this. Probably just working their way through as they dismantle the CDC. I always fill it out with fake info anyway. Stupid requirements received stupid results.

For my trip to PUJ and back a couple of weeks ago, I went through all of the crap it told me was required, including to use the Verifly app (!). I thought that was long gone. When I got to the airport and showed it to the check-in desk (it would not allow OLCI) the woman looked at me like I was nuts. She said we don't do any of that anymore
