Test

[jcool]

I know getting on the ship you need to take a Covid 19 test do you need to take a covid19 when you get off the ship?

Not at the moment

But is happening now?

Depends if you need it to return home (international) or if you have an unvaccinated child.

We left from Bayonne NJ and returned to same so no covid test. I guess it depends where your going or coming ftom

For international travelers was a test (pcr or antigen) available on board?  I've looked around various cruise lines and RC either doesn't show it on web page or don't do it onboard.  There was one vague post else where, but test were only done on last full day at sea.  If you had a port of call on the day before your disembarkation day that pushed it back even further.  Thanks.

I have no kid coming with me. I will be driving home. And I will be going to the Caribbean. Out of FL

Yes, Royal will provide one for free if you need it for travel after disembarkation.

You just need a test to get on the ship, nothing after.

I thought that arriving back into the US from say a caribbean cruise and flying home to another state an unvaccinated child that hasn't reached the vaccine age range group yet won't have to be tested again.

I think they've been testing unvaxed children mid-cruise, so that if there are any cases on-board, they can catch them and quarantine as needed.

Thanks...good to know we hopefully won't have to worry about this and cruise end day can head directly to the airport for our flight home from MCO-LAX.

That is correct.
