Could anybody help me with a similar Covid testing requirements question please. I am leaving New York on the QM2 transatlantic cruise, Oct 28th. The pre cruise requirements state that All fully vaccinated guests will need to organize and purchase an antigen test to be taken two days prior to arrival at the embarkation terminal. This can be at any time two days before or on the day of embarkation. You can order your antigen test kit through any government-approved testing provider. Guests will need to present their negative antigen test certificate at the ship's terminal.
There is no mention of the test needing to be an observed test however it does say that I need to present my negative test certificate at the ships terminal. Do I therefore not need to be observed and does ANY government testing provider include the NHS. Can I use the lateral flow testing kits I brought with me to the USA and register them with the NHS who will send me an email with the result that I submit or do I have to purchase an over the counter covid test from the USA and are the results logged in the same way as the UK where you get an email informing you of the result from your test (that you submitted).
Thank you
