Purplsmurf Posted April 30, 2022 #1 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Looks like Italy has now gone to a negative test required 2 days before instead of 1! The Celebrity website has been updated. They keep saying a negative antigen test is required. I sure hope they still accept a PCR. Not sure why they wouldn’t, but 🤷🏻♀️ 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgmn Posted April 30, 2022 #2 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Good news, thanks. I knew if I changed my flights they would change to two 🤦♀️ Wonder if I can change my flights back 🤔 Either way it's less running around the day before the holiday 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoveChops Posted April 30, 2022 #4 Share Posted April 30, 2022 I just contacted Celebrity via Messenger, to make absolutely certain of this prior to changing the date of my test. The response was "Italy is 1 day" - this is so frustrating!!! I responded saying the new advice, dated yesterday, was that it was now 2 days so could they please confirm - no reply! Is it 1 or 2???

I am leaving on the reflection Monday and just took my COVID test (negative thank god). I took a screen shot in case they say it’s 1 day but I am sure they would not have changed it on their website to 1 day if that isn’t the case 😊 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jelayne Posted April 30, 2022 #9 Share Posted April 30, 2022 I think I would check the Italy government’s website for what i is required and follow that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It says nothing about cruises. It makes total sense though. Italy is relaxing their mask policy, ending the health pass and some even say the PLF is no longer required, although, aside from a UK website, I haven’t found that information in the US. I wouldn’t think Celebrity would update their website yesterday if it was false information……app still not updated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danv3 Posted April 30, 2022 #11 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Good news! Now we just need the US to get rid of the nonsensical return home test requirement. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virginia100 Posted April 30, 2022 #12 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Yes, the healthy at sea website is the info to be followed. It’s 2 days. You don’t need a test to even enter Italy for a month now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sasset Posted April 30, 2022 #14 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Maybe I missed this in the many posts across the board: If you arrive in Italy a week before you cruise and tested prior to that arrival, is there another test for boarding? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no need to test prior to entering Italy. Celebrity require a negative test 2 days before boarding for a cruise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maverick! Posted May 6, 2022 #17 Share Posted May 6, 2022 It's now back to 1 day for Italy (was 2 days changed from 1 day last week): Up to Date* Guests: Must present a negative Antigen test taken within 1 day prior to sailing. Testing at the terminal will not be required. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lydnsyd Posted May 6, 2022 #18 Share Posted May 6, 2022 Just had confirmation from Captains Club that testing is now back to 1 day before sailing for 'Up To Date' passengers. I asked if we were unable to get tested 1 day before would it be possible to have the test at the port - the answer was NO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
