OneCheck, a digital platform chosen by leading diagnostic centers, and Volotea, low cost airline which connects medium-sized cities and European capitals, have signed a collaboration agreement to manage the booking, testing and secure transfer of Covid test results required for passengers on board flights to and from Italian airports. A service that meets passengers' needs for reliability and speed needed for travel.

The agreement allows passengers departing from 9 airports in Volotea's Italian network (Cagliari, Genoa, Naples, Olbia, Palermo, Venice, Verona, Catania and Pisa) to book at an affiliated center and pay for a Covid-19 test through the OneCheck platform.
There are already more than 250 partner diagnostic centers operating throughout Italy, which will more than double in the coming weeks.
Once on the platform OneCheck, supplemented with the Volotea's Covid-19 Travel Hub, passengers are directed to the required test according to their destination, then to booking the swab at an affiliated center, until the certified and encrypted results are issued and can be shown to the appropriate authorities. Customer service is available to answer any questions throughout the process.

The platform allows travelers to book a Serologic, rapid antigenic (lateral flow) or molecular PCR test. For PCR tests, it is possible to receive the result within 24 hours. From start to finish, passengers stay informed of their progress, and as soon as it is available, they can securely access the report on their smartphone, PC or tablet.
"This agreement represents further validation of our infrastructure and its relevance to airlines and their passengers within a highly uncertain and dynamic pandemic and regulatory environment," stresses Federico Kluzer, founder and CEO of OneTray S.p.A.
"Our experience in the aviation industry dates back to 2014, with the establishment of OneTray. We work with 40 airports around the world that in aggregate process over 500 million passengers per year (2019). In recent months, we have been working on the development of OneCheck, creating a network of first-rate diagnostic partners to ensure that our service is as efficient as possible, which also fits the needs of the rail and cruise industries, as well as sports and entertainment events," Kluzer adds.
"We are delighted to have signed this agreement because it allows us to offer our passengers the opportunity to travel with total peace of mind. This year represents a great challenge and the enhancement of our services at a key time for the industry and the recovery of tourism is always a source of pride," commented Álex de Jesús, Volotea's Chief Experience Officer.
