wendycook22 Posted October 28, 2021 #1 Share Posted October 28, 2021 Hi Everyone! I have been researching extensively. I thought I had read that the PCR testing provided by Celebrity does not include the time in which the test was taken, just the date. I tried to loop back to try and find the thread but it is like finding a needle in a hay stack. Can a recent cruiser kindly let me know what information was included on their PCR test on Celebrity Cruises. (I posted this is the Celebrity Board but realized it may be better served on this board - so my apologies if you see and reply to both). Thanks in advance!

wendycook22 Posted October 28, 2021 Author #2 Share Posted October 28, 2021 To clarify I am referring to the testing provided by Celebrity for post cruise travel requirements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are flying back to Ottawa via Montreal the same day our cruise arrives in FLL. So the PCR test done by Celebrity on the 2nd last day of the cruise should suffice.

The free testing by Celebrity is a big plus when you consider the post-cruise running around that you need to do with some other lines. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Djb4CC Posted October 28, 2021 #8 Share Posted October 28, 2021 And just as a follow up, Holland America also offers free PCR testing on board on day 5 and 6 for travel back to Canada. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems that Carnival Corporation's cruise lines are quite varied in their approaches. HAL on board, Princess on shore once you've disembarked, and Carnival not at all IIRC. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Djb4CC Posted November 21, 2021 #10 Share Posted November 21, 2021 So just got of a HAL ship in Ft Lauderdale this morning and the covid testing was done in port after going through customs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How long did it take to get the test? Was it busy? How long until you got your results emailed to you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wendy Jones Hi Wendy, I think you are referring to my post about this from the summer. Our results this summer didn’t include the time of the sample was taken and I got them to add it. We just got home from the Equinox and they are using a different results form (from the lab they have contracted onboard) that includes the date and time of collection and everything else required on the Canadian governments website. Results worked fine for us to get home. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
