We found one (location) with an earlier time of day and when trying to schedule it prompted to cancel the one at the original location before it would process it. Just hoping it all works out for our test on Saturday to sail on Monday. Did you need to make a separate appt for your spouse or partner? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SF Posted January 14, 2022 #81 Share Posted January 14, 2022 Just noticed on Walgreens site that there aren't any appointments at any of their locations. Usually early in the morning they have a few spots. Hope they haven't stop testing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said I would come back...and here I am....Had our test done at 11:30am this morning. I had signed us both up for the CVS MyAccount before going and we had a text and email within 20 minutes of leaving CVS. Printed out our hard copy from my desk top of our Negative results and good to sail on Monday. CVS made everything so easy. Best of luck to you. 6 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We just got back yesterday. Ship is as clean as a whistle, crew exceptionally friendly and bend over backwards helpful. All bars, lounges and showrooms up and running. Live music everywhere at night. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Separate appointments yes. My wife and I had a three hour gap between appointments but we walked in together and had no problem getting tested at the same time. Results on phone in 20 minutes.

Thanks I'm going to try & get the CVS appt's but may get the emed ones as a backup. We are doing the same itinerary as you 2-21. Have a great cruise I hope none of the ports get cancelled. I can't wait to cruise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare mac_tlc Posted January 15, 2022 #92 Share Posted January 15, 2022 We are on the Celebrity Apex on 1/29. Yesterday I booked a rapid test at a CVS in Orlando for 1/27, and this morning I booked backup appointments for 1/28. We have gone the CVS route three prior times, once in FL twice in CT with no issues. Hopefully that trend will continue. mac_tlc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wish we could have done that instead of ending up with an incomplete kit this morning and having to find a testing site. Good news we both tested negative so we get to join you on Monday but talk about pre cruise stress. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimboriffic Posted January 16, 2022 #94 Share Posted January 16, 2022 We were also happy with cvs..they let us in together even though we had a half hour gap. We had our results in an hour. Also, we felt so safe on the independence of the seas. Very clean and and at half capacity. No more risk then going shopping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shoptom Posted January 16, 2022 #95 Share Posted January 16, 2022 I booked rapid tests at both CVS and Walgreens for safety and here are the results: Walgreens negative confirmed in almost exactly three hours. CVS negative confirmed in almost exactly three days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know mileage may vary, but in general: 1) How long did the test itself take (waiting an testing) and 2) how long did you wait for results? We are on a tight schedule that day and need to plan accordingly. I have purchased the home tests as a backup. Should I make appointments at Walgreen's in case CVS cancels? Am I overthinking and overplanning? 😁 I waited about 15 minutes to be called in to begin my test. Once I left CVS, I had my results in about 45 minutes even though they told me it could be up to a few hours to get results. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
