The app can use the scanned image of your passport to either verify previously-entered information or add it to the system, removing one step that slows down the ticketing and boarding process of international flights. If the app properly identifies your passport information, you won't be asked to provide any further documentation to receive your boarding pass.</p> <!--break--> <p>Naturally you'll still be expected to bring valid passports and identification with them to the airport (http://www.imore.com/tag/travel), but with this latest app update you'll likely get to leave that passport in your bag and breeze on through the gate to your flight.</p> <p>You can grab the latest version of the United Airlines app from the App Store at the link below.</p> <ul><li>Free - <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/united-airlines/id449945214?mt=8&amp;at=10l3Vy&amp;ct=d_im" title="" rel="nofollow">Download Now[/url]</li> </ul></div></div></div><div id="comment-wrapper-nid-26201"></div><img width='1' height='1' src='http://tipb.com.feedsportal.com/c/33998/f/616881/s/3d400791/sc/10/mf.gif' border='0'/><br clear='all'/>
