United Airlines said it now requires all passengers to self-certify their health prior to boarding a flight
The airline is the first major US carrier to require all passengers to complete a health questionnaire to screen for the coronavirus as part of checking in.
It also requests passengers agree to wear a face mask during the flight, which is an airline policy, but not a federal requirement. The airline was the first US carrier to require face coverings for flight attendants, and United later followed with passenger mask requirements as of May 4. There are no current US government or industry-wide requirements for this broad type of health screening.
