Home COVID tests

[robntawn]

We are cruising in December and thinking of ordering the RCCL sponsored home tests to do 2 days prior to cruise date. How soon should we order from RCCL?

Lots of the threads here on the topic.

Appreciate the snarky response. Not.

Thank you. I didn’t want to order too early.

They ship really fast. 

From when I ordered until when I received = 2 business days

This expedited shipping is included in the cost of the test kits. 

 

To be safe, I would recommend ordering 2 weeks out (from sail date). 

 

The whole process is so easy. 

(I did my test earlier today)

Wife & I purchased home test kits.  Will we need to make separate calls to the monitor site or can we take our separate tests on the same call?

I'd go ahead and order them for a December sailing.  You should be just fine ordering two weeks out, if you would rather, but you should not have an issue with expiration (if that's your concern).

You'll need to do them separately.  If you have more than one device, you can do them at the same time.

They have to be done on separate calls.  
 

Just a note….if using the same device be sure to completely log out after the first person takes their test.  I failed to do that and when my husband got online with the proctor it still showed me as the account owner and they wouldn’t do his test.

 

no biggie….we grabbed another device, logged him in, got another proctor and sailed through his test….
