On flights where this service is available, customers are invited by email, a few days before departure, to send their health documents to Air France via an online platform. These documents are then checked and, provided they are in conformity, a confirmation message is sent to the customer. The boarding passes issued will be marked “Ready to Fly”, allowing Air France teams to handle them quickly at the airport on the day of departure.
With “Ready to Fly”, Air France enables its customers to approach their trip with greater peace of mind, knowing that they have all the documents they need to board. This free and optional service also makes the customer’s transit through the airport smoother by avoiding successive checkpoints.

If you do not receive this type of assistance and are forced to incur additional expenses, you are entitled to be reimbursed. So remember to keep your itemized bills and receipts. Your claim for reimbursement may also be attached to your claim for compensation.
