Rare arxcards Posted April 27, 2022 #2 Share Posted April 27, 2022 It isn't activated to P&O yet. Just set up your profile, and wait for P&O to give you the green light. There isn't much that needs to be done just yet - it will only be used to prove your vaxx status, and then your health survey/RAT result just before cruising. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CDaze71 Posted April 27, 2022 #3 Share Posted April 27, 2022 I think it will have P&O in there about mid May I read. I believe you only need to update it 72 hours before so you will have plenty of time before your sailing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare arxcards Posted April 27, 2022 #4 Share Posted April 27, 2022 PS - good luck ringing P&O at present. Their website has had the wobbles since the email was circulated yesterday evening, and I am sure there are loads ringing to ask the same question, as well as having their under 12 unvaccinated kids added to the exemption list. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CDaze71 Posted April 27, 2022 #5 Share Posted April 27, 2022 Found it, yep MID MAY...... Pre-Departure COVID-19 Testing Guests are required to return a negative COVID-19 test prior to boarding. Tests may be either: A self-administered Rapid-Antigen Test (RAT) completed within 24 hours of boarding. A PCR test completed within 72 hours prior to boarding. Guests will be asked to confirm which type of test was undertaken as well as the result. If you receive a positive result, you will need to contact our customer service team on 13 24 94. You will also need to report the positive test to local health authorities through existing processes. P&O will use the Verifly app from mid May for vaccination status and providing a negative COVID-19 test result. Those who have already booked a cruise should be receiving an email already or will be soon. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare arxcards Posted May 17, 2022 #6 Share Posted May 17, 2022 P&O will be linking to the VeriFLY app on Thursday. Setting up a profile was so easy, that I thought this would be a breeze. I am not so confident after reading the reviews at the Play Store. Good luck!! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare arxcards Posted May 19, 2022 #7 Share Posted May 19, 2022 VeriFLY has linked to P&O in the past hour. Wish me luck!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare arxcards Posted May 19, 2022 #8 Share Posted May 19, 2022 Done as far as possible so far. Linked to my P&O cruise via booking number and surname, all my details were there. Then uploaded International Vaxx certificate. Just need to do the RAT the day before boarding, attest the results, and do the health survey. Easy!

Rare arxcards Posted May 19, 2022 #9 Share Posted May 19, 2022 You can do both on the same phone if you wish, by uploading your own certificate, and scanning the QR code from your partners phone to upload theirs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CCC's Posted May 19, 2022 #10 Share Posted May 19, 2022 Do you have to upload the International vaxx certificate instead of the normal vax certificate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. Not for domestic cruises. You can upload or scan the QR code for your domestic one. Not sure if there are issues with mix n match of domestic ID an international certificate or vice versa. Personally I used passports and international certificates, as it was just a matter of linking our passports to Medicare. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoopkat Posted May 19, 2022 #12 Share Posted May 19, 2022 I downloaded the app and it was easy enough to step up, taking an acceptable selfie took much longer! Our cruise isn't until June so I can't upload the vax certs until next week at the earliest. I noticed RC wasn't on the list so not sure what they are going to do about vax cert requirements when the time comes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enough fun for me just keeping up with P&O and Princess. I wasn't aware there was a time frame for uploading the Vax certificate. I guess it makes sense that everything is as current as possible.

Hammer61 Posted May 20, 2022 #14 Share Posted May 20, 2022 (edited) Easy enough to do, although it wouldn’t accept the barcode on my vaccination certificate? But there is an option to do it manually and then upload a photo of the certificate so I did that. Only thing I wasn’t sure about was if we both need to do it individually on our own phones or just do it all on mine? I completed everything on my phone anyway as I had the info, but then spoke with my wife later this morning to say it was done and she has done all hers as well!!!! so they will receive everything from me, then all her stuff again……….maybe they need to make it clearer that only one person can do it all via the app for everyone on the same booking, if that is the case? It may well be their and just missed it. Edited May 20, 2022 by Hammer61 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoopkat Posted May 20, 2022 #15 Share Posted May 20, 2022 Both my partner and I downloaded the app and uploaded both our details. We figured we'll use one for the actual booking and the other could be a backup in case the primary phone dies or something. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the terminal they are just looking for ticks, and they still have a manual system for those that don't have it completed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She opened the link on her phone to display it, and it wouldn't scan in any direction. By accident, I tapped her barcode and it displayed a bit larger by itself without all the other vaxx details. It then scanned first time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aus Traveller Posted May 23, 2022 #18 Share Posted May 23, 2022 We have a couple of P&O cruises booked, but I am not going to try to complete their questionnaires etc yet. It is enough to deal with the Princess Medallion app at the moment. When we get back from our Princess cruise in very early July, I will attempt to deal with the P&O one. Just as well I have plenty of spare time at the moment. 😁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you need the international Vaxx certificate, you go through the medicare app and link your passport. From there you download the certificate to your phone, where it is usually found under "my files" within my documents or my downloads. You can also have a link show on your home screen. If you can locate that downloaded file on your phone, you can then upload it to VeriFLY. Also with your partners, they can display the QR code on their phone, which you can scan to the VeriFLY app to upload both on the same phone. I am not sure if that helps, but we can chat through it on messenger if you need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once I get the test out of the way on Monday, it will be party mode. I am not worried about catching it, just don't want to lose a cruise at the last minute. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
