And the number of free excursions listed for OLife is per cabin. Half that per person.

HawaiiDan- I don't know if you found your answer to your question: "on my return flight from Europe, I am flying LIS-Toronto- ORD. I am not getting off in Canada... will I have to have smart phones and crap to get that silly" arrive Canada I do not intend to set foot in any of Canada?" But here's an excerpt for the ArriveCan Document on the Canadian Government website (the link to the site follows it): "If transiting through Canada to another country by air Travellers who are transiting through Canada to another country (international to international) don't need to submit their information through ArriveCAN as long as they: are transiting through: Vancouver International Airport Toronto Pearson International Airport Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport Calgary International Airport stay in the secure transit area within the airport while making their connection A secure transit area is a specific zone that separates travellers and their baggage from other passengers and goods. If travellers are not sure whether they will need to leave the secure transit area to get to their connection flight, they must confirm with their airline prior to departure. If you do leave the secure transit area for any reason, you will need to: submit your mandatory public health information using ArriveCAN prior to arrival at the connecting airport. see a CBSA officer for examination." https://www.canada.ca/en/border-services-agency/services/arrivecan.html

Dan Don't confuse entry requirements with the country's embarkation requirements. At present, Canada requires testing prior to embarkation on cruises leaving Canada, but does not require testing to enter the country. That's one that O lists, and it's confirmed in documentation I received from Canada (not O). O says Greece is another that has the same type of embarkation requirement. I don't know when these requirements will be removed. The twist is slightly different in the Caribbean. Individual countries can require any cruise calling at its port to require testing for the cruise in general. Bermuda is one.

Not sure whose act you're referring to or why you're saying O is holding on to a stunt. After August 1, O no longer requires pre-boarding tests except for those instances where countries require it for boarding cruise ships. O doesn't want to do it any more than you.

We are currently on the Ireland Immersion, 10-day cruise, and this also was our experience this week: 6 to 8 pm except where the Captain spoke which started at 5:45 pm.
