Sewing Clothes For A Cruise
pattycruisealot21 replied to geocruiser's topic in Cruise Fashions & Beauty
Yees it definitely looks like a fun project!! We'll definitely be doing this pre-cruise fun project a few days before and have it ready for our sailing date! We'll have to watch a few tutorial videos before doing it though 😅 -
Woow such stunning views!! Thanks so much for sharing, this is an activity that has been in our mind for a few years now and for one thing or another we don't end up doing it but this thread really got us excited about maybe doing it this year!! 😄

Windstar now requiring self-testing pre-embarkation
pattycruisealot21 replied to Pudgesmom's topic in Windstar Cruises
It's so unfortunate, I have been seeing this more and more with cruise lines that they are now leaving cruisers on their own for testing which makes it very stressful. Not sure if this may be helpful, but if you are embarking out of the Vancouver port, there is a testing clinic right next to the cruise ship terminal in Vancouver inside the Vancouver Convention Centre which is soo convenient for us cruisers!! You can book an appointment online and I heard they also accept walk-ins and they have very affordable prices. Here is the link in case you want to check them out https://covid-medical.ca/covid-19-test-book-online/ -
How Dressy is Elegant Night - 4 night Cruise
pattycruisealot21 replied to cfreas's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
Have you guys seen ladies with long dresses on gala night lately? I Know before it was a thing but not sure if its been so much lately. Do you guys think that a long dress for the gala night is too much? With Covid I haven't had a chance to use it so I was thinking of wearing it for our next cruise. -
Testing Site at Canada Place closing
pattycruisealot21 replied to SharonN's topic in Holland America Line
Yeah the CVM Medical clinic that is in Canada Place next to the cruise ship terminal will be open again as of July 1st. I spoke with a very nice lady in their customer service line which she explained they had to close for renovations but will be back up and running on July 1st with no problem. @Storylady Personally, we also don't like doing it ourselves onboard. The Wi-Fi on board makes me a little worried and I wouldn't trust it since there will be so many users trying to do the same thing the day before disembarking. My husband and I have travelled to the US a few times this year and we just got back from our cruise a week ago. We always get tested with CVM Medical, we absolutely love the service and locations! Maybe give them a try at their airport location or their cruise ship terminal clinic once it opens again and you'll see their great service 🙂 Here is their link in case it may be useful for anyone: https://covid-medical.ca/covid-19-test-book-online/ -
Where are you getting Covid test before sailing Alaska?
pattycruisealot21 replied to ojaidenny's topic in Alaska
My husband and I have travelled to the US a few times this year and we just got back from our cruise not long ago. We always get tested with CVM Medical, they have a clinic at the airport and one right in the downtown Vancouver area next to the cruise ship terminal which was closed for renovations but will be open again from July 1st. We have gotten tested for different trips at both clinics and we absolutely love the service and locations!! Here is the link in case you want to check them out https://covid-medical.ca/covid-19-test-book-online/ I hope this helps 🙂 -
Antigen test pre cruise Vancouver
pattycruisealot21 replied to Dirose09's topic in Holland America Line
Yeah my husband and I have tested at their airport location and now at the new clinic near the cruise terminal in Vancouver and we have n complaints, always get such great service! We are going on the Alaska cruise at the end of May and we have pre-booked online both of our Covid tests. -

Personally Wi-Fi on board makes me a little worried and I wouldn't trust it since there will be so many users trying to do the same thing the day before disembarking. So just in case that self testing option does not work well due to Wi-Fi connection on the cruise then not sure if this may be helpful or an option for you but there is a testing clinic that is actually right next to the cruise ship terminal in Vancouver inside the Vancouver Convention Centre which is soo convenient for us cruisers!! You can book an appointment online and I heard they also accept walk-ins. Here is the link in case you want to check them out https://covid-medical.ca/covid-19-test-book-online/

Wooww this is incredible!! Truly a work of art 🤩 -
Not sure if this may be helpful but there is a testing clinic that is actually right next to the cruise ship terminal in Vancouver inside the Vancouver Convention Centre which is soo convenient for us cruisers!! Maybe you can book an appointment before boarding your cruise and then you will get your results in your email within like half an hour or so after you get tested for the antigen. From what I see on their website they also offer PCR test. Here is the link in case you want to check them out https://covid-medical.ca/covid-19-test-book-online/

Easy Covid Testing at YVR Vancouver airport
pattycruisealot21 replied to BeachBum47's topic in West Coast Departures
Thanks for opening this thread, so many cruisers have been left on their own by cruise lines now no longer providing Covid-19 testing. My husband and I have also used CVM Medical in the past and we've always had a great experience. They send results via email within half hour or so and their customer service line is great as well if you run into any issues! Yeah for cruisers I would also recommend their brand new location in the Vancouver Convention Centre which is right next to the cruise terminal. Here is the link of their locations to book in case it may be useful for anyone https://covid-medical.ca/covid-19-test-book-online/ -
