That's really great news!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I just hate to take that risk, though. Although I could use my certified BC if it wasn't back, I guess.

Even that site has conflicting info. One page says everyone over 12 HAS to be "vaccinated" and then another page says Unvaxxed people can have a negative test 3 days before travel. So, which is it? Hoe frustrating.

Exactly right! There are folks (like me) that have allergies that cause them to cough. Some people get coughing as a side effect from a medication. Some folks have bronchitis or other pulmonary problems. Coughs are not always covid related and many coughs are just that....coughs. Not dangerous & not contagious.

That's good news. I am still getting conflicting info about the Bahamas.

I was wondering about that. Mine has expired and I'd like to book a cruise for Dec. Was just wondering how fast an expediter was.

I realize that. It's just frustrating because cruises and travel is expensive so you don't want to get to the port only to be told you can't get onboard. If everyone was "on the same page" and you didn't get conflicting information, it would be decisions easier.

I am in a similar dilemma. I am looking to book for December. My family will not get the jab, so we are happy that the cruise lines are starting to come to their senses. It seems this is not an easy quesiton to answer. One agent tells you one thing, and another agent a few hrs later tells you something different. I just don't want to pay for the cruise and then get to the terminal and can't get on the ship. I am thinking about calling the Bahamian Consulate/Embassy tomorrow and ask them.

Ditto for my family! I haven't sailed on NCL since the mid 80s, but we are going to book a cruise (or 2) on NCL next week for being the frist to come to their senses and do away with the "vaxx" mandate! We usually sail on RCCL/Celebrity also, but now NCL is getting out business!

100% correct!

and I will be booking a cruise (or 2) on NCL next week! I haven't cruised since covid started, so I am more than ready! Finally they are coming to their senses!

EXACTLY right!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
