But email probably makes more sense-easier to print. Here are the instructions for the Iceland pre-registration from Viking’s document at Vikingcruises.com. I don’t know if this differs from what Viking sent you directly. But initially, you will get a text to enter a verification code for the registration. Then it says you will receive a link via email for your pre-registration approval (barcode). This is how it worked for us. Iceland Pre-Registration/Pre-Departure Requirements for UK/US Guest Entry (Iceland): 1. Ensure you have proof of complete vaccination for COVID-19. 2. 72 hours prior to arrival in Iceland, you will need to fill out a pre-registration form at https://visit.covid.is/ registration, which will require the following 2 steps: Step 1: Health Declaration and mobile phone verification. You will be asked for your mobile number and will be required to request a verification number before you can continue. When you receive the verification number, enter and submit it as directed. Step 2: Registration information a. This includes entry of the following information • Country of departure • Flight number/Arrival date (refer to your air ticket) • Date of birth • Family name = last name; given name(s) = first and middle names as they appear on your passport. • Nationality • Gender • Email address • Country of residence • Departure date • Mobile number b. You must then “Choose what you are doing upon arrival to Iceland”: i. Select: “Present a valid certificate for exception/other documents” (vaccination certificate) ii. Confirmation: check appropriate boxes iii. Select: Confirm and Send c. You will receive a confirmation email with a link to a barcode that must be presented upon your arrival to Iceland. Please print or have this available on you mobile phone. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JM0115 Posted July 5, 2021 #754 Share Posted July 5, 2021 For anyone that took the RIB boat or other boat excursions where they give you coveralls, do you wear a rain jacket under the coveralls or just a sweater/fleece? Just wondering if there can be too many layers under the coveralls? Thank you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are trying to get a shuttle to the Blue Lagoon and Viking says we will be off by 9:00. Just wonder if that's realistic. Don't know what the call center is telling people but the ship staff is telling us that everybody must be off the ship by 8 AM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DMIL has a smart phone but would really like to do her registration on my phone and then print it for her to have. But I don’t know if I’ll be able to tell which barcode is whose when they come back? TIA for any advice. I did both of ours to my phone. Barcode comes as an email. One pp. Easy to distinguish but be sure to mark whose is whose when you print them out. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drsue Posted July 6, 2021 #763 Share Posted July 6, 2021 For those making their own flight arrangements, are we to meet directly at the ship or are we to meet at the concert hall? I couldn't find it in any of my Viking literature. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't find it in any of my Viking literature. Viking will shuttle passengers to the The Concert Hall from the airport. Around 11:00 they will begin to then transfer passengers to the ship. I "think" this only applies to those who are either flying Viking or who have purchased a transfer from Viking. My guess is that you need to get your own transportation to the ship unless you purchase a transfer and I think that it may be too late for that.

I couldn't find it in any of my Viking literature. Assuming you have not purchased a transfer from Viking, then you are to arrive at Skarfabakki pier no earlier (or only a wee bit earlier) than 11AM. I don't know how late it is still possible to check in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are the Chef's Table menus on the second Iceland cruise the same as on the first Iceland cruise: Xiang, Great Britian, and Asian Panaroma - yes or no?

I will defer to someone else to confirm when the first shuttle leaves the ship and when the last shuttle returns to the ship. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like as good a time as any to re-plug my collection of information from the first cruisers: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1rJqx62oEB9Ty8LckUD5NfSUM8HYyC_fs?usp=sharing The document gives whatever information I could glean from reports of the first trip. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Viking transfers to the ship had to be purchased 30 days in advance. Boarding time for private transfers is 11 am although i read that someone got there at 10:45 and they were processed to board.

We flew to Bergen to do our own pre cruise and had planned how to get to city from airport. However we missed our connection flight and actually arrived in Bergen the same day Viking was doing their transfers. We were allowed to get on their shuttle and they charged the $49 pp to our room account. So if you are arriving in Iceland anytime between 6 and 8 am, there are at least 12 flights from the US then and there will be lots of Viking personnel to help and Viking buses to take. The Viking transfer info said flights arriving before 8 am will be shuttled to the Harpa. I would think flights later would go directly to ship.
