Vaccinations/Royal

[benemmom]

Getting ready to start packing for our cruise. 12 days out!! Quick question about vaccinations. Anyone that has recently been on the Royal Princess for the Eastern Caribbean voyages, are there any vaccination requirements for St. Maarten? Some places I have read that yellow fever is required fro The Americas and other places say no. Can't seem to figure out where to officially look. Thanks for your help in advance!:D

No vaccinations required in the Caribbean. Yellow fever is required for some South American locations, mostly jungle. That said, I'd recommend making sure your standard vaccinations are up-to-date, including tetanus.

I did my own research in St a Maarten and chose to use Deet before disembarking. I would recommend you do the same if you are nervous.

Thanks Pam! Do you know if they will need to see records of our normal vaccines? I see you on here all the time and see you are from CA. What part? We are in Pasadena!

No need to see any medical records on this itinerary.

As Bill says, no medical records or vaccination card needed. However, if you have a medical condition, it's a good idea to put your most recent medical records on a thumb drive or SD card. My sister has chronic kidney disease which is under control but she brings her medical records on a thumb drive.

 

I'm way south if you near Laguna Beach. :)
