ADVANCE PASSENGER INFORMATION

Suitcases floating in the air
The Governments of the countries listed below, require Virgin Atlantic to collect and transmit Advance Passenger Information for every passenger onboard the aircraft.

  • Caribbean
  • China
  • India
  • Japan
  • South Africa
  • United Arab Emirates
  • United Kingdom
  • USA
Advance Passenger Information includes the information in the profile page of a passport and if travelling to the US, details of the full address, (street name and number, city, zip code and state), of the first night's accommodation.


HOW WE'LL COLLECT API FROM YOU

Our aim is to make the process of collecting the required information as quick and easy as possible for all of our US bound passengers. You can provide this information in the following ways:

  • At time of booking;
  • Once you've made a booking to the US by selecting Amend Booking within Manage Your Flights;
  • When Checking In online or using our DIY Kiosk facilities at London Heathrow;
  • At Check In (although it is strongly recommended that you use one of the above options to save time). If you use this option, please make sure you have a note of your address in the US handy.
We would ask that all passengers continue to provide their valid travel documents and details of their full US destination address for US Immigration. There is no requirement for passengers to arrive at the airport any earlier than usual or to provide any information in advance of checking in for their flight
