Same here, we are on the 9/12 sailing. Patiently awaiting September's rules. They didn't release August's until the last week in July 🤷♂️ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
batoryfirst Posted August 18, 2021 #77 Share Posted August 18, 2021 We’re on Allure 9/19. This fence I’m sitting on gets more uncomfortable by the day. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
molly361 Posted August 18, 2021 #78 Share Posted August 18, 2021 Does anyone really think the vaccinated folks needing a covid test before hand is going to go away in Sept? I think Sept rules at least for Florida are going to be the same as August 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HicksRA Posted August 18, 2021 #81 Share Posted August 18, 2021 I think if anything changes for September it’ll be more restrictive, not less based on the current progressions. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zekekelso Posted August 18, 2021 #84 Share Posted August 18, 2021 (edited) Just my guess - but I see no relaxing of rules for September. I do have some hope for October. GB saw a very rapid decline in cases after their “delta” outbreak. Though some experts are saying that is unlikely to happen in the US since we have large geographic regions with low vax numbers. That said, I’m still hoping for good news. Edited August 18, 2021 by zekekelso Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't. well something to contemplate... and after contemplating, I stand by my statement. If everyone else on that cruise was vaccinated and read the fine print, large print..., then there is no reason this family couldn't. I shudder to imagine what line of work they were in. There is no illusion or allusion. Edited August 18, 2021 by jean87510 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We tested today at 2:20 and we have an appt in the morning at 8:20. Hopefully both are negative, and then we should be golden 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry I thought I mentioned it here, but I must have only posted it on my live thread. I logged into the MyHealth NB website last night to put in the request to set up a testing appt. Our plan had been to schedule the test for Thursday to cover our Saturday flight & Sunday cruise. They called me this morning to schedule our tests and I explained our travel plan - (flying on Saturday at 6 AM and then cruising on Sunday and both need a test no more than 3 days prior) so I asked for the test on Thursday. They were concerned that if we waited until Thursday, the test might not be back before our flight so they wanted us to come in today for a test that will cover the flight and then another tomorrow morning to cover the cruise. This way we will be sure to get the results in time for both parts of the trip. They wanted to make sure we had our bases covered. There is only one location in Saint John that I am aware of and it is a drive through. Not the most attractive place, but it is efficient. They did hubby through the drivers side window and me through the passenger. Up the nose & out of there within 5 minutes. It might not even have been that long. Now we wait for the results! Both tests are covered by the province - I assume you guys have all your testing covered too? Gotta love that good ole Canadian socialized medicine!

This is only the 2nd time I have been tested. The 1st time was in November and I really only went because my son was going for a test and did not want to go alone. Hubby just got his first test today. I am sailing on a B2B2B on the Odyssey starting on Sunday 8/22. I started my thread a little earlier than I probably should have 🤣.
