NaiNoNo Posted January 20, 2022 #1 Share Posted January 20, 2022 My husband and I have both tested positive so had to cancel our cruise. We were supposed to leave next week for Miami and sail on Symphony on the 29th. We are so disappointed but on the brightside - we tested positive before we got on the ship. Also - after a 5 hour hold (!) with Air Canada Vacations, and we received a 100% refund (air/cruise/pre-hotel). We will try again in March! Stay safe and healthy everyone 🙂 10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll sail again, Ruth 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K_e_short Posted January 20, 2022 #3 Share Posted January 20, 2022 Were you able to get a PCR test? Others have mentioned that is a big plus to getting Covid - less hassle when you finally do get back to cruising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was concerned that I would have to pay for one b/c of the testing restrictions - but public health gave me one - no hassles. I was literally the only person in the testing centre - which is a giant arena. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll sail again, Ruth lol - I'm not going to lie. I'm super sad - especially when I see all the posts on the sailing FB group.... I don't have the heart to leave the group...... But I'm choosing to be positive - no point in being angry about something I can't control. Like I said - hopefully in March 🙂 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The PCR test must have the lab name and address that performed the test, the type of test performed, your name, DOB and the results. DH and I just tested positive this week and paid to have this PCR test done as the free one I got in December only emailed us the results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It also had to have all that information in order for me to get the full refund from Royal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
