Vancouver pre-cruise Covid Test

[Carol28]

Is there any information about taking an approved test to board RCCL ship when embarking in Vancouver? We used the Optum/Navica for our cruise in the Caribbean, but I don't know if they work in Canada.  Or, is there no information out yet?

No information yet.  The recent news about Canadian requirements for the cruise lines wasn't all that positive, so fingers crossed that the ships can actually go to Canada this year.

There wasn't anything concerning about the tentative Canadian requirements for cruising. They're basically no different than what the CDC mandates.

Don't agree and am not going to go around in circles with you.

Canada's cruise rules are quite clearly spelled out. There's no circles to spin.

The Alaskan cruises have been posted.

Actually they follow basically the same guidelines that Royal is using.  They state 100% vaccinated ships but that does not include under 5 year olds

Just hoping our RCI Serenade Vancouver RT sails this September. Am watching what happens with the May start ups.
