I think when all is said and done we will go with one of the many rapid tests available in our area. We will likely have to pay for them but the cost will be considerably less than the rapid PCR test we originally planned to take during the 72 hour “window”. We’ll have to schedule the test the day we leave which can be a little nerve racking, but with pre- planning and an appointment we should be okay.
We are doing two nights in Oslo on a Viking pre-extension and not sure anyone will even see these test results! Norway has no Covid restrictions right now (we’re less than 30 days out) so we will arrive in Norway, travel to the hotel (in the evening) and there MAYBE meet with the Viking rep. If it is the wrong test, what are they going to do … send us home? I think we’ll be fine!
