Carnival will not be providing testing for vaccinated people a the ship, unless b2b.

 

The unvaxed are still tested at embarkation and before debarkation at the ship. Vaxed or unvaxed doing b2b are still tested at the ship.

 

"Unvaccinated guests must take an additional antigen test at embarkation, and test again within 24 hours of debarkation on all cruises longer than 4 days. "

 

"All guests traveling on back to back cruises, regardless of vaccination status, will need to be tested in between voyages. "

I thought you were saying that the vaccinated folks were not going to need to get tested at all, sorry if I misinterpreted that.

check out your other options like the local Health Department, CVS, Walgreens, etc.  There are other options.

No testing for the vaxed. The unvaxed and people on b2b are still tested. 

that is not accurate - there is testing for all (vaxed or unvaxed) - they will just not be providing it at portside.

I am correct in interpreting this as Quest is ONE OPTION of how to get tested?  Meaning, we could go to CVS or that type of thing and as long as they do the antigen or molecular and can get results in time we can use them?

So you know how you always end up bringing more back that you intended to?  Here's my husband's "hack".  We cruise pretty much once a year.  He saves up his old, holey socks and underwear to take on the cruise.  Once they are worn, they get discarded!  Voila, extra space in your suitcase!
