16 days or less. NO MORE testing.

• Vaccinated guests must continue to provide evidence of their vaccination status prior to embarkation. Pre-cruise testing is no longer required, except for cruises to Canada, Bermuda, Greece and Australia (per local guidelines), and on voyages 16 nights or longer.

So maybe they start treating cases on board like NORO.  Confine to cabin

I find it interesting that now the vaccinated have the burden to show vaccination status vs. the unvaccinated. 

[canes20]

Only if vaccinated, unvaccinated still have to test

What is that supposed to mean? No testing is no testing. Only asking for you vacination status.

What burden??? You upload a PDF document that you probably already have a copy of. I'll take that "burden" over a test where I may be asymptomatic positive and have to cancel last minute.

You don’t have to show it if you choose not to. Just take a Covid test and show the negative results.

Why test if you do not need to? To me that is a burden.

I would never do that, but the person I replied to said it was a burden to have to show your proof of vaccination. My point was if you don’t want to show your vaccination status, just take the test. Now people can choose to either show one or the other. Hopefully we will have to show neither soon.

If you are not vaccinated you need to provide a negative test. Read the entire protocols.

What ever happened to just "read the rules" and follow them? We are all guilty, at times, of over-complicating our lives!

Apparently Twitter and other social media has destroyed most people’s ability to read and comprehend if it is more than 140 characters. Most seem to read a headline and not bother with the details. Then they are posting scathing reviews and comments about how “nobody told me...” when they are denied boarding at the pier because of not having the proper documentation.

His opening line is "vaccinated guests", Always Cruzin never said unvaccinated guests didn't have to test.I think some folks made their own assumptions and then ran with it. A reply isn't needed IMO. It's happy dance time! This is what everyone has been waiting for!

It assumes people are vaccinated which is reasonable since most of the population is.

You can show proof of vaccination. or you can test, Your choice. No need to test if vaccinated.

I was mistaken on the new policy. I thought they were doing away with testing completely. And they were requiring those that are vaccinated to show proof and unvaccinated don't have to do anything.
