Viking still testing pre-cruise for Alaska

[Jjg34219]

We board Monday in Seward and Viking had us all test today…all meaning those on pre-extensions. I had thought for sure that requirement had gone away!

It is required by Canada

Just to clarify: we don't have to be tested on our own? Viking does the testing:?

IF you are on a Viking pre-cruise extension. If you are arriving directly to the ship for embarkation you may well need to take care of your testing yourself and provide your results at check-in. I believe a proctored Antigen test is allowed but not sure if it is 1 or 2 days prior to boarding time limit. Check your Viking paperwork.

Actually, I checked this morning and that sentence is now gone from the pre cruise requirements.  (New document dated Aug. 2).  As we have a five day pre cruise extension, I really don’t know what we will do.  But a lot can happen between now and next summer!
