Royal reverses policy on proof of vaccination. Will Celebrity follow suit?

Pre registering is in direct contradiction to DiSantis' law.  I agree it would seem the best way to go, but.....

 

During pre-registration, the following prompt can be provided:

 

"To avoid a COVID test at the pier at your expense (estimated to be $ 250 per person), please upload a copy of your COVID vaccination card, which we will verify when you embark."

 

This does not violate the Florida law, which states:

 

"A business entity ... may not require patrons or customers to provide any documentation certifying COVID-19 vaccination or post-infection recovery to gain access to, entry upon, or service from the business operations in this state"

Priceless. Imo.

$250....heck I was thinking more like $500 and you need to be tested daily.

It appears that the cruise lines will go back to business with unvaccinated being discouraged to book, resulting in a very high percentage of vaccinated onboard.  Also, most cruises have a high number of seniors that have a high percentage of vaccination.

Instead of requesting proof by cruise I wonder if a field could be added to the X login settings.  The data would be available and could be tied to bookings for a yes or no headcount for the 95%  Just a thought.
