The “provisional boarding pass” is not discussed in the Consolidated User Guide. What are the documentation requirements for a provisional boarding pass?
The APIS Pre-Departure Final Rule does not establish requirements for issuing provisional boarding passes. Carriers are required to submit complete APIS data no later than 30 minutes prior to securing of the aircraft for batch submissions and no later than up to securing of the aircraft for APIS Quick Query (AQQ) submissions. The Federal Register posting, pg 48331, indicates that travelers with connections can have a boarding pass issued, without receiving a screening response. The carrier in this instance would inhibit boarding until an appropriate screening response is receive.
