Passenger Details
Update your passport details – TSA and APIS
The TSA (Secure Flight Passenger Data) and APIS (Advance Passenger Information System) are two systems widely used for flight safety. APIS data includes passenger information that would be found on the face of a passport, such as full name, gender, and country of passport issuance, while TSA only contains the full name, gender, and date of birth (with no passport info being attached). Depending on your trip, one or both of these systems may be used.
