Rare CruiserKris34 Posted February 11, 2022 #1 Share Posted February 11, 2022 So, I'm just being super cautious here....the website says Antigen is ok, but the below from my CVS confirmation shows an "X Not accepted for most travel"? Maybe that means airfare. I have this on Thursday before my Saturday cruise. I've seen other topics about having a backup. Maybe Walgreens on the same day? They only schedule TWO days out though & my cruise is 2/26. Ugh, I don't like all of this 😞 but excited to go. Thanks, Kris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare JamieLogical Posted February 11, 2022 #2 Share Posted February 11, 2022 Yes, an antigen test is accepted by Celebrity. Some countries, like Canada, require PCR tests for entry. That's why there is that not about not being accepted for travel. But do not worry. Celebrity accepts antigen test results. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sippican Posted February 11, 2022 #3 Share Posted February 11, 2022 I'd certainly have a back-up plan. Is your CVS guaranteeing the results will be back prior to your boarding? Our CVS is saying 2-3 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare CruisinCrow Posted February 11, 2022 #4 Share Posted February 11, 2022 I think they say that because it is not accepted by some countries for travel. We used the CVS rapid antigen test for our cruise on Royal Caribbean and it was accepted. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our CVS is saying 2-3 days. For CVS's rapid antigen test, they say the result will be back within "hours". Most reports of testers that have had this test indicated that they got results within two hours. When I did it, my results were ready in under an hour. I'd say for that test you don't need a guarantee, as long as you don't need an immediate answer. For CVS's standard PCR test (which you seem to be referring to), I don't think they do or can guarantee results within 2 days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hiccups Posted February 11, 2022 #6 Share Posted February 11, 2022 (edited) I just booked our CVS test for our cruise on 2/26 and got the same message. We have used that same CVS test for our past two cruises with no problem. Edited February 11, 2022 by hiccups 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One was a phone call and the other was to share it with my healthcare provider. Do they also automatically e mail as well? Am I missing something?

Thanks, Kris Just boarded Equinox today, and that is the test we took 2 days ago in Naples, FL. We had results in 1 hour. Easy and fast results!
