Tiki-Is-Texas Posted July 22, 2021 #576 Share Posted July 22, 2021 Question for USA passengers, did you, were you required to, use VeriFly? We have the app, entered the basic info but then what? Our CDC vaccination cards do not have QR codes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, you can take a picture of the vaccination card when you get to that place on the app or you can take a picture of the card and upload it to the app. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rizello Posted July 23, 2021 #582 Share Posted July 23, 2021 As of August 1, Malta will require that the CDC vaccination card be verified with some yet unnamed app. Has anyone heard what this might be? Will this be VeriFLY or something else? I was happy they were just going to accept the CDC card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom.in.nc Posted July 23, 2021 #589 Share Posted July 23, 2021 FYI, from HEALTH.GOV.MT : Who is required to complete the digital Passenger Locator Form (dPLF)? All travellers entering Malta via air or by sea (cruise or ferry) are required to complete a digital Passenger Locator Form (dPLF). Each individual who is travelling will have to complete a separate PLF, even if travelling as part of a group or family. The Malta digital Passenger Locator is part of the EU digital PLF system and can be accessed from https://app.euplf.eu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did things go fairly smoothly in Germany? Do they ask for the proof of vaccination at immigrations/passport control? Just curious since I booked my own flights for the cruise and have a connection at Frankfurt airport. I fly out of Los Angeles next Friday and really appreciate these updates! Thank you!

rizello Posted July 23, 2021 #593 Share Posted July 23, 2021 I’m another fellow traveler following what is happening! We are a few weeks out and are transiting through Munich on the way to Malta. (Unless of course we get our flights changed one more time to reflect a different routing.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmm…..I wonder how this will work for those of us coming in a few days early for the cruise. Our first address for the PLF will be a hotel in Malta, not the ship. Yet Viking wants all our info in the app for the cruise, too. I haven’t used the app yet, but I guess I’ll find out! Not cruising til Sept. 12. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes to all the above. Just changing planes in Frankfurt (on layover here now) you have to go through border control and show your passport, your vaccination card and your test results. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rizello Posted July 24, 2021 #598 Share Posted July 24, 2021 Thank you for continuing to keep us updated. According to Germany’s own website, they say you only need proof of vaccination OR test results, but you are saying they asked for both. Good to know. it looks like Germany accepts both PCR and antigen. I assume you had PCR? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan2504 Posted July 24, 2021 #600 Share Posted July 24, 2021 Arrived in Kotor this morning,we did the walking tour of the old city, our guide was excellent and entertaining, we did this mid-morning and lasted nearly 2 1/2 hrs. To maintain the "bubble" of the ship as much as possible we were required to wear masks and your personal locator. No free time to shop or browse independently, but we were aware of these restrictions at the time of booking. We have been in Kotor before but even with the restrictions on our tour we seemed to get so much more out of it, I guess we didn't have the distraction of the usual "we recommend shop A or shop B" or "this my cousins shop" etc etc. Did miss not being to go off on your own but we knew this to be the case and accept Vikings reasoning behind it. All in all having a fantastic time so much so we are pretty close staying on for the next cruise😎 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
