Yes, they won't need to test for the 3 and 4 days cruises the Radiance sails and no OP, testing is no longer performed at the pier.

TESTING REQUIREMENTS (UPDATED 8/03/22)

CRUISES 5 DAYS OR LESS

Except where destination requirements differ (see below), effective with sailings departing August 4, 2022, there will be no pre-cruise testing for fully vaccinated guests booked on certain cruises with itineraries 5 days or less.

• Due to destination requirements, ALL guests on itineraries that include Bahamas, Bermuda and Grand Cayman must complete a pre-cruise test, irrespective of the length of the cruise.
• For itineraries that include Bahamas and Grand Cayman, guests may take either a PCR or antigen test starting 3 days before departure (for example, if the sailing is on Saturday, the test may be taken any time from Wednesday).
• For itineraries that include Bermuda, in order to comply with destination regulations, guests may take either a PCR or an antigen test within the timelines specified below:
  • A PCR test within 72 hours prior to sailing (for example, if the sailing is on Saturday, the test may be taken any time from Wednesday).
  • An antigen test no earlier than two days prior to sailing (for example, if the sailing is on Saturday, the test may be taken any time from Thursday).

  • While the CDC has strongly recommended that individuals obtain a COVID-19 booster vaccination, when eligible, for the purposes of Carnival's protocols, the definition of “fully vaccinated” does not generally include reference to a booster except when explicitly stated. Boosters may be required for specific voyages based on duration or destination requirements.

    The following voyages require guests, age 12 and older, to be fully vaccinated. In addition, all guests, age 18 and older, who are more than 6 months past the last dose of their initial vaccine series must be boosted (if eligible) in order to sail:

  • Carnival Pride® and Carnival Celebration™ Europe - All 2022 departures
  • Carnival Splendor® 23-day Carnival Journey (Transpacific) - September 6, 2022
  • Carnival Spirit® 16-day Carnival Journey (Panama Canal) - September 20, 2022
