We always found the IT shop to be a convenient place to lay blame. 😂 LOL, no, never worked in an IT shop, but I did work closely with one and was aware of this issue.

runningtide Posted August 11, 2021 #27 Share Posted August 11, 2021 I retired as a IT Network Director of Engineering. Regarding the subject matter, consider a simplified statement. IT is responsible for content DELIVERY...., not the content. The content is provided by the organizations that subscribe to the various IT services. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That site gives much more details about the tests. This was from a different Celebrity site: All Travelers: Must present a negative RT-PCR or Antigent test taken 72 hrs. prior to arrival at the terminal for sailings departing August 6, 2021 through September 6, 2021. Unvaccinated Children (6 mo – 11 years): will get a Rapid RT-PCR test at embark. Unvaccinated 12+ will need a RT-PCR 3 days prior to boarding, rapid RT-PCR at embark, & (sailings 6N+) Antigen mid-cruise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Jim_Iain Posted August 11, 2021 #30 Share Posted August 11, 2021 (edited) I received 2 emails today (wish they would put what cruise they are for) believe it to be for our Sept 6 cruise. On this communication they spell Antigen correctly but still states 72 hours for the test. Edited August 11, 2021 by Jim_Iain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Jim_Iain Posted August 11, 2021 #31 Share Posted August 11, 2021 Just in case you want to read --- came out really small We look forward to welcoming you aboard Celebrity Equinox® for your Caribbean sailing from Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Before we depart, we have some important information to share regarding our Health and Safety Protocols. Out of an abundance of caution, Celebrity Cruises will be enhancing COVID-19 testing requirements for both vaccinated and unvaccinated guests. All guests over the age of two, regardless of vaccination status, will now be required to present a negative COVID-19 test result at the time of embarkation. This test may be taken as either a PCR test or an Antigen test, conducted within 72 hours of embarkation. Each guest is responsible for making their own arrangements with an accredited testing provider as well as all associated costs. Should a guest be unable to complete the testing requirements, a 100% refund or Future Cruise Credit will be offered. Additional testing and protocols will be confirmed closer to your sailing departure date in line with the most up to date recommendations from local government and health officials as well as our Healthy Sail Panel. These measures, including vaccination and testing requirements, will evolve along with public health standards. US ENTRY REQUIREMENTS • All non-US residents must present a negative NAAT or Antigen test taken with 3 days of travel. • Be sure to save a copy on your phone and bring a printed copy.

All unvaccinated children 6 months to 11 years old will require a complimentary Covid-19 test at the terminal. Registration is required prior to arrival at terminal. A link will be provided via email to the unvaccinated guest. Guests that do not meet the testing and health screening policy requirements will be denied boarding.
