Thanks cruisemom42 and euro cruiser for your replies and advice. I had heard we would be best to book directly through the ferry company but I was unsure of the reason so thanks for the explanation. And it's good to know in advance that we still need to queue up to exchange the online ticket ticket for the paper one. Your help is much appreciated! Thanks again.

The next ferry is 8.35. We were thinking of going with that one but trying to squeeze as much time as we can get on Capri.

Hi Cruisers We are a group of 6 arriving at Naples on 16 September on the Celebrity Beyond. We are planning to take a gamble with the weather and pre purchase return ferry tickets to the Isle of Capri to avoid wasting time queuing for tickets and are anticipating large crowds. The ship's itinerary states the ship will arrive at 7am and departs at 5pm. We are considering pre purchasing tickets for the 8.05am ferry. Does this sound reasonable? Has anyone had an experience whereby the cruise ship arrives later than scheduled? Are passengers allowed off in a timely fashion? We understand that if we missed that ferry, our tickets would not be able to be used for another crossing.

Thanks everyone for all this information. Apologies I had not replied (family health issues). I appreciate everyone's input and time and trouble and hope those who were unwell are feeling fine now with no adverse issues. Thank you all.

Hi There is plenty of information on Royal Caribbean's "Healthy Sail Center" webpage, regarding vaccination and testing requirements to check in. However, I am interested to hear of the COVID policy should a COVID negative passenger on check in, return a positive COVID result on the cruise. If two people are in the same cabin and one is positive and the other negative, what would happen? I have recently heard of a case of a passenger with a positive COVID result who apparently was removed from their cabin and transferred to a cabin below deck without any windows and confined there. I am unsure if they were travelling with someone else. Unfortunately it seems very difficult (in Australia at least) to contact Royal Caribbean once you have paid for a booking. I am still awaiting a reply from an email I sent 3 weeks ago regarding a different issue. Any information to confirm the policy would be much appreciated.
