AviationInScale Posted October 30, 2022 #1 Share Posted October 30, 2022 Hello All, The "official" decree from MSC is " Unvaccinated guests are required to submit a negative test at embarkation.". I've seen in several threads today that people embarking were not asked for any test results over the last week or two. Can any of you speak to this being true? (Karens retweeting the party line, please refrain.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coscab Posted October 30, 2022 #2 Share Posted October 30, 2022 I just copied this, its under MSC health and safety on unitedcruisescruisehelp, it makes no sense What testing information do I need to know for my upcoming cruise? Unvaccinated guests (between 2 and 11 years old) must show proof of a lab-administered negative COVID-19 viral test (NAAT or antigen) taken within 3 days of embarkation on all sailings from U.S. ports.

9876 Posted October 30, 2022 #3 Share Posted October 30, 2022 I sailed Seashore on 1 October and they asked for it. I personally would not show up without the proper documentation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope they change it soon. 1 minute ago, 9876 said: Edited October 30, 2022 by 9876 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irishcanuck Posted November 1, 2022 #5 Share Posted November 1, 2022 We were looking for information ourselves for 2 year old for our upcoming caribbean cruise. The website contradicts what yours states. All guests over 5 years old who are unvaccinated or do not have proof of a vaccine certificate, must show proof of a lab-administered negative COVID-19 viral test (RT-PCR or antigen) taken within 2 days of embarkation before boarding. Children under 5 years of age are not required to submit a negative test. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asalligo Posted November 2, 2022 #6 Share Posted November 2, 2022 They have to be considering dropping this requirement as almost every cruise ship sailing from US ports has at this point. Hopefully we hear something soon. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would think MSC would announce changes soon. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many Countries now require no health protocols, but MSC still insist on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
syracr Posted November 3, 2022 #9 Share Posted November 3, 2022 Just a Note here. RCI dropped all vaccination and testing requirement (with just a few destination exceptions) yesterday. Hopefully MSC will follow suit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
