- United Airlines now admits the improved shipping passes of iOS 26
- That means that you can see a flight tracker and a map of the boarding pass at the apple wallet
- More airlines are expected to admit these characteristics soon
iOS 26 landed recently, and brought a complete update load to its iPhone, including a new liquid glass interface design. But one of the promised updates was not available at the launch, since it required the airlines to rise on board.
We are talking, of course, about the new shipping pass functions in Apple Wallet, and now (through 9to5Mac), United Airlines has finally adopted these useful tools.
If you add an united boarding pass to Apple Wallet in iOS 26, you will have more than just the boarding pass itself: you can also press a button to add a flight tracker to your lock screen, showing things like the remaining time on your flight and the exit or arrival door.
In addition, there is also the option to share the flight tracker with friends and family, in which case you will see the same information on their lock screen, apart from their seat number and shipping group.
Airport maps and luggage tracking
These new improved shipping passes can also show a map of the airport and can show the location of any luggage that has an AIRTAG tracker.
Therefore, these are some useful features, and although many airline applications already offer flight trackers, others do not, and have them all in a centralized location (the Apple wallet) could be useful.
Of course, the airline still needs to admit these characteristics, and at this time that means that you can only access them in United. However, Apple has said that Air Canada, American Airlines, Delta, Jetblue, Jetstar, Lufthansa, Qantas, Southwest and Virgin Australia will also add support in a short time. With luck, other airlines will follow their example, but that remains to be seen.
