Apple Wallet gains new travel-friendly features in iOS 26

Apple Wallet is becoming a little more travel-friendly, Apple has announced W. of W. 2025The The app will soon be able to keep a digital version of your passport and boarding passes will achieve new features that promise to make the trip a bit easier.

The new passport feature is “not replacing your physical passport,” Apple says, but it can be used in applications that need to verify age and identity and supported TSA checkpoints. Digital passports can help delayers who have not yet received their original ID.

Boarding passes have been stored in the Wallet app for a long time by allowing quick access from the lock screen. However with iOS 26 they are getting a host of new features. Boarding passes will now include links to the terminal map so that it is easier to find your gate or baggage claim.

Once on the claim, I need to look for the new link of the wallet, allowing the users to check the boarding pass to track their Airtagd luggage progress.
