So glad I saw this thread today as I must have missed the original post. I’m currently in Jasper, getting Rocky Mountaineer tomorrow and Friday and not due to arrive in Vancouver until late Friday. I had booked our tests at CVM Canada place for Saturday morning. Although CVM claims to have sent an email regarding closing the test centre, we have never received it. Fortunately and thank you to this post, Ive managed to book our tests at the Fairmont, which is actually closer to where we’re staying overnight in Vancouver. Can’t thank everyone enough for this as I don’t know what we would have done if we’d arrived Saturday to find CVM closed.

Thank you. What would be the port of entry, Vancouver? It’s a round trip cruise departing and arriving in Vancouver. Also do I put our departure date as date of arrival. This is very confusing or maybe it’s just me 😂

Hi We are due to board Konigsdam on 18th June and I’m not sure if we need to complete another ArriveCAN before we board the ship. We arrived in Canada on the 8th June so completed one before entry to the country. I have seen various comments about completing one before boarding but surely, as we are boarding in Canada and will have been in the country for 10 days we shouldn’t need to complete another. I understand one may be required to re-enter Canada at the end of the cruise.

Thank you for all the responses. They’ve been very useful.

Thank you. Do you know how far CVM is away from the ship’s dock? I’m looking into companies who sell them here as well to take with us.

Hi We’re due to join HAL Koningsdam for a week cruise in June and wondering where we can get a pre cruise test prior to boarding. Due to our itinerary we will arrive in Vancouver late on Friday evening 17th June after leaving the Rocky Mountaineer and will be boarding around lunchtime Saturday, so time is limited. We will be staying at the Sutton Place hotel overnight so wondered if there was anywhere nearby. I have seen there is some testing at the port but don’t know how close it is to where the ship will be docked. Any suggestions welcome.
