Sorry if this sounds a bit dense... but i thought this was like the VA equivalent of VeriFly? I looked the download it on my android phone but no app came up on GooglePlay store. so is it just accessed on the VA app, when we check in?

You get a link to use it from VS a couple of days before you fly (but you cant upload anything until OLCI opens) Upload for NHS covid vaccine derails from NHS app, the PDF of your test before flight and you can do your attention form on it. You then get green ticks and can OLCI. At the airport it says so much time as yesterday, at upper wing, those who had done it (only me) skipped the line - the others had to prove to agent all the documentation and that, form what I could see, took ages (an agent walked the line with an iPad and checked names to see if it had been ✅ and if so you were expedited)

You can upload the PDF - I guess it may need a human to view it ? But you can even do it with a photograph of you certificate . It really is very easy to use

Worked fine. Download the letter from the vacs page rather than app then upload. Well that�s how mine worked
