Microchip in the COVID shot! Yep!

You can laugh about that, but I have read a study regarding the putting of dye in the vaccine so that folks will be able to SEE proof of vaccination. Of course, that is also easy to copy at your nearest tattoo parlor.

The heading on this post leads one to believe that you can’t fly AA if you’re not vaccinated which is not true. If your destination requires that you be vaccinated it makes sense to be sure people are vaccinated, just like requiring a passport on an international flight. That’s a big difference from insinuating that this is just the beginning of forcing airline passengers to produce proof of vaccination to board a plane.

Great example of entitlement

How about we just get a government issued verification card similar to a drivers license, or better yet the verification can be linked to ones TSA pre-check account?

Great example of "I want what I want, doesn't matter what you want." I want to require everyone else to get a vaccine and have to prove it but I don't care that it might be more convenient/efficient/cost effective to do it electronically and I want to create a whole new govt bureaucracy because I want a physical Id. There is so much wrong with this (beginning with everyone must be vaccinated to be able to fly). And they call the ones who don't feel the need to wear a mask or get vaccinated the selfish ones.

Proof of vaccine is just another step to track you and bring you to the world of socialism and all that brings to this once great country. 🥺😡🥺

It is not difficult, if you want to travel to “E” and they require a vaccination for for COVID19, yellow fever or whatever; get the shot & show the proof, or don’t go. With every freedom come a responsibility. If you want the freedom to travel, you are responsible for meeting the host’s requirements.

Cruise lines are in the same "boat" (no pun intended) if they want to home port in Florida. The cruise lines will not be able to call on ports in foreign countries if those countries require proof of Covid vaccination. Imposing a ban on businesses who need to require proof of vaccination will certainly hinder the operation of cruise lines who wish to home port in Florida.

If this is really occurring, it is criminal and I am appalled.

PLEASE, PLEASE let this be true. When push comes to shove, this will eliminate the forgeries that non-vaccinated people will undoubtedly try to get away with if proof of vaccination is required for whatever.

Just when the last person gets his/hers, then the boosters will come along. Then you have all the problems that come along with a "vaccine passport"---4th amendment rights, HIPPA, those who are allergic, religious objectors, etc.

I guess the people who have no cell phones or use basic flip phones and don't use apps at all will not be able to fly?

Maybe the current administration will give away "free" smartphones to those they determine need them:1rotfl::1rotfl::1rotfl:

It's all a bunch of hysterical panic brought on by weak minded or power hungry people. I have traveled to many countries in my lifetime and very seldom have I been required to provide vaccination proof UNLESS I apply for a visa in a country requiring certain vaccinations. I can't even remember the last country where I had to provide my shot record. I am not saying that countries do not request it, just that I don't remember any of them that have in my experience.
AA is only providing a service, not a requirement........yet.

Covid just may change that scenario you described, and it is already happening........

COVID travel restrictions: Where fully vaccinated Americans can go

There are PLENTY of folks who will not set one foot on a cruise ship unless all passengers and crew are vaccinated (at least for the start up of cruising). Have you been to the cruise forums? There are a few anti-vaxxers and hesitant vaxxers that are whining like you wouldn't believe because they are not able to board a cruise ship. Wha Wha Wha Wha Wha and it is so damn comical. They make me chuckle just like the folks on this forum that are so opposed to that "government control".

Absolutely correct SO FAR regarding the airlines. Not so, however, for cruise lines. Proof of vaccination is required to board a cruise ship. I can't wait to see how this new Florida law that DeSantis orchestrated that bans businesses from requesting proof of vaccination will shake out. AND, there is no exception for cruise lines.

Then what type of "mark or tattoo" (that was being proposed) would you suggest?

The recipients would just sell the free government provided phones in order to pay for their fake vaccination cards.
