Testing and NCL

[kar1996]

In Ontario ...Sailing NCL driving to port Is Shoppers or Costco best for testing????  Anyone have any issues with either ...Need a test for March 27th sailing BUT no test on the way back on the ArriveCan app do we list ports or just NYC Thanks

Same answer as on the other thread:

Used Shoppers for our last two cruises and have a third booked for 2 weeks time. Very fast and efficient...results in 15mins.

Never used Costco.

From a price perspective  Costco is cheapest, then Walmart, then Rexall and then SDM (at least in Ottawa).  All tests done by them are fine to get on an NCL ship

Thank you ...Glad to hear no issues easier to get it done here so I am not running around NYC

Which test does NCL require at Shoppers?  The 150 PCR or the 40 antigen?  Thanks

Their website says an Antigen test is sufficient. Must be done within 2 days of sailing.

There are a few factors to be considered. Generally the antigen test is sufficient, but in some cases a PCR test is required. Timing requirements can also vary. I suggest that you go to this link and read the first FAQ entitled Do I need to take a COVID-19 test prior to arrival at the terminal?

$19 at Walmart I've used for my last few trips to the US.

To answer your second question, you must list all countries that you visited. In our case on the Getaway, we listed US and Bahamas.

 

Have a wonderful cruise.
