So I read the table of entry requirements on the Marella website and it clearly states that the fully vaccinated do not need to do pre flight testing for mainland Spain. I believe this is all Spain apart from the Canaries. It was updated on 9th September. Happy to get confirmation from others interpreting from their own reading of the website.

According to posts on Facebook, Marella website now stating that no testing required for Palma sailings from 1st October. Not checked myself yet but hopefully reliable information.

Anyone just back able to say if staff are still masked, they were in May but hoping that it's not the same now.

Hi, Sadly I missed the Europa League final on Explorer 2 in May, gutted! Wasn't shown, some guys tried to get it on WiFi in the coffee lounge with little success. Maybe as we're playing Liverpool there might be enough collective demand for the captain to do the decent thing and arrange to show it on the ship. Here's hoping. Can't complain doing 2 cruises but feel unlucky to miss 2 massive games. Fingers crossed 🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞

We were on Explorer 2 and there were no USB ports in the cabin but there was a smart TV with a USB port which I used as a charging point. As long as the TV is on or in standby you can take power from there. Assuming smart TV's are on all ships you're going to have somewhere to charge from even if you don't take your own adaptors.

Anytime the day before you fly as per Marella website and as RR said. Sometimes reading too many posts from people guessing the rules can leave you with more questions than answers. Have a great cruise.

I agree but the until all the passengers on the TUI flight out have the `day before` LFT test certificates it`s been risky all along. STILL MAKES NO SENSE.

There was a USB on the back of the smart TV in our cabin which I was able use as an extra charging point. Should be one on all of them so could come in handy for anyone in the future. Even charges when the TV is on standby.👍
