Royal Caribbean on board COVID testing for following NCL cruise?

[Phych]

I'm going to be on Symphony until Feb 12 and I'll be boarding NCL Encore Feb 13.  I just received the notice that 2 day testing will be required for both, so I'm wondering if any of you know if NCL accepted testing will be available on board the Symphony. If so, will I be able to get results back in time for the NCL cruise?

 

Thanks!

The test from the Symphony should be acceptable but you may need to adjust your story why you need it.

Just an FYI about RCI and testing.

They will give you a test free if you are doing a B2B or S2S on the same cruiseline or within the same company. The won't give you one if the following cruise is with another company. You will have to lie why you want it.

 

RCCL > RCCL = Good

RCCL > Celebrity = Good

RCCL > NCL = Lie

One could say that they are going on an international trip (which is true) which requires a test, kinda like Canadians going home.
