Delta Air Lines customers now have more ways to meet COVID-19 testing requirements with convenient, accurate in-home rapid antigen tests that can be shipped directly to a home address or picked up locally. These tests are now available for purchase online.

“Even as the U.S. achieves widespread immunity through vaccinations, many international countries lag behind the U.S. in vaccination rates. Testing and proof of a negative test result within 72 hours of travel remain core components for entry to many international destinations as well as to return to the U.S. during the global pandemic,” said Henry Ting, senior vice president and chief health officer, Delta. “These new purchase and pack COVID-19 tests offer a convenient option to provide proof of a negative test result and enable a seamless experience for our customers.”

In a partnership with AZOVA, Ellume COVID-19 Home Tests offer highly accurate results in just minutes. The single-package tests sync with smartphones for results, are authorized for use in children 2 years and older and are compliant with government reporting requirements. The tests are $50. This product is the only rapid antigen test on the market authorized to give both asymptomatic and symptomatic individuals reliable results after 15 minutes.

Use the Delta Discover Map and testing resources page to learn about various destinations’ requirements and be sure to bring your results throughout your day of travel. Delta’s FlyReady digital health credential solution saves passengers time by allowing them to verify test results prior to arrival at the airport. The airline plans to integrate vaccination credentials into this later this summer.

Ellume COVID-19 Home Test and AZOVA Video Observation service are now also available for passengers with Alaska Airlines who are U.S. residents traveling to and from Costa Rica, Mexico and Canada.
