RCI itself no, but there may be a testing lab at the port for a fee. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kfnesq Posted April 14, 2022 #5 Share Posted April 14, 2022 They have testing capabilities at the ports because they test the unvaxxed kids pre-cruise, from what I understand. That said, if they do test you at the port I'm certain it costs $$$$. Way easier to do it pre-cruise at CVS or Walgreens for free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neverbeenhere Posted April 14, 2022 #6 Share Posted April 14, 2022 Test on boarding day A last-resort option with LIMITED availability. Make an appointment to take your pre-cruise test with a mobile provider outside the terminal before you check in. Cost starts from $99 per person. For vaccinated guests only.

That testing is not available for anyone else but the kids/unvax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to RLC website testing is available for vaccinated passengers only of all other options have failed so yes, you can test at terminal for $99, test results take 90 minutes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but it's not the folk that test inside the terminal for kids/unvax - it's some separate mobile lab outside the terminal, which is not available at every port, which you must book ahead of time and which in some cases is much more than $99. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They weren't testing kids in the terminal for our San Juan cruise last month...It was in a separate mobile lab outside. And yes, any one vaxed that still needed a test could make an appointment or walk up. We had made an appt for a backup plan but didn't need it...and cancelled it day before boarding. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
