Aviator of the Seas Posted January 28, 2022 #1 Share Posted January 28, 2022 (edited) Where the thorn since December had been that the Puerto Rico government required both vaccination proof AND a 48 hour Covid test for entry to avoid quarantine, effective February 2, 2022: Inbound travelers need to present proof of vaccination OR a 48 hour Covid test prior to entry by air on domestic U.S. flights or by sea. Either/or. Not both. All travelers must complete a travel declaration at travelsafe.pr.gov and obtain a green QR code to avoid delays in exiting baggage claim at the airport or disembarking at the cruise ship piers. Inbound air travelers on international flights (from outside the U.S.), the U.S. still requires both vaccines and tests. IT IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED that once you obtain your Puerto Rico green QR code for entry, that you print it out or keep a screenshot of it on your phone/iPad/tablet. The thing is, the only domestic U.S. cell carrier available in Puerto Rico is now Sprint/T-Mobile, and those on other networks might have issues accessing the internet and their cloud documents from their phones once on the island. That's it. Happy Easter/Spring Break! Edited January 28, 2022 by Aviator of the Seas 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashland Posted January 29, 2022 #5 Share Posted January 29, 2022 Does someone have the link in English. We'll be arriving at SJU on March 18th for a cruise on the 20th. We'll have our vaccination card. So we can fill out the Travel Declaration and print out before flying there. We have AT&T so now I'm concerned about internet connection to do our online covid test before boarding the ship. Thoughts please !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, if I were you I would print out and/or screenshoot my green travelsafe.pr.gov QR code to avoid delays at the airport.

Not sure how early you can do it, but the the latest you should do it is while you wait to board your flight to the islands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had to to the same for Spain last week and just showed it and flew through the airport. I did print out paper copies of everything also just in case.
