The gentleman I spoke with said it's very likely the restrictions will be lifted at the end of this month so there's nothing to worry about. If you come from the UK and get on a cruise ship, you will be considered in transit and not have to quarantine. I will continue to see what develops but that's the official word for now. Wow thank you for passing that on!! It does seem like a logical decision really doesn’t it, it’s not like we’re going to be running amok in Italy once we get there. I’m amazed I haven’t been contacted for balance payment yet…that will force me to make a decision one way or the other..! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy was really funny, he was singing Whitney Houston songs at me while he waited for an answer from a colleague. LOL 😁 We had to make final payment a week or so ago, I'm surprised you haven't had to yet. Lucky you! 😊 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare MarkusToe Posted July 2, 2021 #55 Share Posted July 2, 2021 Looks like this rule is or will be quit in the near future... Italy said: all visitors of the today's game, coming from UK, has to have the 5days quarantine, before entering the stadium. Independent from date of arrival in Italy....

Yes, the rule is in place now and expected to expire at the end of the month. OTOH Boris Johnson is set to meet with Angela Merkel today at Chequers and one of the topics up for discussion is allowing fully vaccinated Britons to visit European countries with no quarantine required. If that happens, I think Italy will follow suit and drop the requirement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they allow fully vaccinated cruisers from USA, with 4.8 million active cases, way above all the other countries; then they will have to allow FULLY VACCINATED cruisers from every country in the world Edited July 2, 2021 by drsel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may not always agree with them, but the decision isn't mine to make, it's MSC's. If worse comes to worse, we'll just move our booking to next year.
