(TAN): United Airlines has introduced a new interactive map tool on the airline’s website and mobile app that allows passengers to filter and view destinations’ COVID-19 related travel restrictions. 

The Destination Travel Guide, which United claims is a first among US airlines, provides an interactive, colour coded map to highlight if a destination is closed, partially open or fully open for travel, and will also note if any tests or self-quarantining is required for travel. 

Passengers can filter destinations to view local regulations, such as social distancing and mask enforcement, as well as to see if hotels, restaurants and other leisure outlets are open to the public.

“We know it’s a challenge to keep up with the ever-changing list of travel restrictions, policies and regulations so we are offering a simple, easy tool that helps customers decide where to travel next,” said Linda Jojo, executive vice president for technology and chief digital officer. 

The Destination Travel Guide currently highlights travel restrictions and leisure offerings in the US by state, and will expand to include all international destinations the airline serves in the coming weeks. Customers viewing the color-coded map can click on each state to view local regulations and travel guidelines.
