You're welcome.

If the cruise is leaving Canada (no return), you cannot even complete ArriveCAN because you can't - naturally - select a Port of Entry. I suppose you could enter Halifax, but if you're going to Boston the savvy cruiser may suspect that there really is something in the Arrive part of the application's name.

No. You need to complete the ArriveCAN prior to boarding this cruise, which is a round trip from Vancouver to Alaska and back, as I understand your previous posts. The ArriveCAN instructions for this are very clear. From the Government of Canada website: These requirements apply to cruises: arriving in Canada from a foreign country starting in Canada, but travelling outside Canadian waters and then returning to Canada (for example, if docking in the United States for a shore excursion) All travellers are required to: complete ArriveCAN no more than 72 hours of initially boarding the cruise. This includes: any traveller who recently submitted ArriveCAN to enter Canada via land or air Canadians embarking on an international cruise from Canada that will return to Canada

You ought to subscribe to Supermarket Critic and see what they're going on about.

1 and 3 for sure; those are two very separate requirements. I'm not convinced about 2.

How would you provide 'proof' of the negative test without having it done by an independent and qualified third party?

Are you sure about that? Here is an excerpt from Canadian government website regarding cruises staying in Canada or not returning to Canada: Cruises that are staying in Canadian waters or not returning to Canada All travellers are required to take a pre-embarkation COVID-19 test before embarking on a cruise in Canada, even if the cruise ship is not leaving Canadian waters Travellers who are staying within Canada throughout their entire journey or who are leaving Canada and not returning don’t have to complete ArriveCAN.

Why do you persist in clouding up the process, and losing your focus, with a bunch of irrelevant moaning about the Canadian government's requirement(s) to complete ArriveCAN twice?

Yes, that ought to do it. Also, it should be a canada.ca website.

Yes, I guess it will.

You uploaded your proof of vaccination into ArriveCAN and now you're OK there. The pre-embarkation covid test results will be shown to the cruise line agent when you board; this is a somewhat different requirement related to the medical declaration of health that the ship must submit to Canadian authorities as part of gaining clearance to enter Canada. So... no uploading of covid results into ArriveCAN.

The ArriveCAN application 'told' you that a pre-embarkation covid test is not required?

No need to be rude, especially when somebody has tried to explain the requirement for ArriveCAN submissions, which is what the confusion was/is about. Whether you use a cell phone, tablet, PC or semaphore is not the issue... those are only the means of doing it. Enjoy yourself.

I don't agree with the interpretation that @cruiseryyc has provided about the need for a second ArriveCAN submission. The way I see it is that you need: 1. The first submission to come to Canada by air. You have indicated that you've no problem with that; 2. A second submission in advance of boarding the cruise ship. Even though you are arriving in Vancouver and boarding shortly (a few hours I suppose) after arrival. This is a different ArriveCAN activity than flying in and just because it's within the 72 hour timeframe doesn't mean the first submission covers this off. The first submission is for entry to Canada, the second is for boarding the ship (and returning to Canada). Don't forget you all need a covid test prior to boarding. If you can't do both ArriveCAN submissions prior to leaving LAX (perhaps the application will not permit this, I don't know), I suggest you turn your phone on in Vancouver and pay the daily roaming fee to ensure you conplete the necessary ArriveCAN applications. You've already spent enough time, energy and money on all of this so that an extr $10 or so to ensure you are OK is well worth it.

Mid-October. This is not cruise related travel!

Yikes!!! How do you know in advance what your bill will be or is this an 'estimated' monthly average?

How would knowing the answer to this change anything for a person who comes down ill?

I hope the OP doesn't mind, but I have a couple questions on a slightly off-topic situation. I want to make my way from London to Glasgow and have identified a couple of options: 1. Kings Cross to Edinburgh to Glasgow Queen (LNER and ScotRail); 2. Euston to Glasgow Central (Avanti West Coast). Getting to EUS or KGX makes no difference to me. They're both about the same price for First Class travel. Obviously, option 2 is a little less time consuming, but not a great deal and I am in no rush. Also, my hotel in Glasgow is very nearby the Glasgow Queen station so getting there easily is a minor consideration. Anybody have any recommendations on the best route to take for enjoying some of the views?

Read the instructions. Where does it say that you have to be in Canada to complete ArriveCAN prior to boarding the cruise ship? Just do it before you leave home. As for a third submission, if the cruise is a round trip, then not required.

Read the instructions. Have a nice trip.

Because that is what you need to do. Entering Canada by land or air before embarking on a cruise You must complete your ArriveCAN submission before entering Canada, no more than 72 hours of boarding your flight or before entering Canada by land. If you’re flying in to join a cruise immediately, enter the address of your terminal. If you’re not joining the cruise immediately, enter the address of your hotel. You must also submit a second ArriveCAN submission no more than 72 hours before boarding the cruise. This applies even if your second ArriveCAN submission is within 72 hours of the first submission.6

I'm on the Canadian site. If I go to the very bottom of the welcome page and over to the right I can change language from/to English and French. Maybe it's because of the two official languages requirement for Canada but why not see what you get.... perhaps they provide English as an alternate to Spanish.

I was in contact with Farmacia Palombo... they do them https://www.farmaciediturno.org/farmacia.asp?idf=9172 Also, my hotel in Civi is going to hook me up with Centro Diagnostico https://www.cdbuonarroti.it/

I don't believe Princess is alone in the testing requirement for cruises with Greece on the itinerary. I have an upcoming Celebrity cruise and here is their current test protocol:
