weregoingcruising Posted October 13, 2021 #1 Share Posted October 13, 2021 It would be nice if after your 1st cruise showing your card they kept a copy in your profile. If you ever lose it you will still be able to get on their ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jelayne Posted October 13, 2021 #2 Share Posted October 13, 2021 I doubt that will happen. They have passport info and you still have to show your passport. Airlines are the same, they have passport info and you still have to show your passport. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acwmom Posted October 13, 2021 #3 Share Posted October 13, 2021 I did lose mine, but have an official copy from the state immunization registry, which I can print whenever I need it, save it to my phone, computer, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Jim_Iain Posted October 13, 2021 #4 Share Posted October 13, 2021 They don’t keep copies for privacy reasons. Actually in the app you are suppose to scan your card in but once submitted you can’t pull it up again. Then when you checkin they of course scan it in again. Also on our Caribbean cruise a couple weeks ago you had to physically have it on you had to show security to get off the ship. In Bonaire the local officials wanted to examine it before leaving port.

Fouremco Posted October 13, 2021 #5 Share Posted October 13, 2021 I suspect that to avoid complaints about privacy issues, they delete personal information, particularly medical information, at the conclusion of a cruise. Like a passport, the card may simply become something that you get used to carrying around when you know it will be required and tuck away in a safe place when it isn't. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How a resident gets access to her info in the registry varies by state, but I think it’s a good idea to get an official record of your Covid-19 vax info from your state registry and save it, as @acwmomhas done, even if you have your CDC card. Belts and suspenders for this critical info. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sent a snail mail letter request to my Primary Care Provider, and received a printed page back in the mail in a few weeks. It goes back to 2004. Good to have. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are correct. On our B2B they scanned everything again. Also on initial check in at the Piers we were asked for our Vax card no less than 3 times. 1st was a pre-check before entering the pier, then at going up to the Retreat Checkin and finally in the lounge where they shot a picture of it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baynanno1 Posted October 14, 2021 #19 Share Posted October 14, 2021 It seems we have it relatively easy in Australia. Our Vaccination is loaded to our personal Medicare records, which we can easily access securely. My certificate is now on my phone, as we are required to : (a) check in with a QR code at every business we visit and now as we come out of lockdown, (b) we also have to show proof of Vaccination on entering most businesses other than supermarkets. Both (a) and (b) have become a normal part of our daily lives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
