Rare abbydancer2003 Posted December 8, 2021 #1 Share Posted December 8, 2021 I bought a set of two tests from Optum for via the Celebrity website for my 2 Celebrity cruises earlier this fall. I didn't end up using them, and instead got antigen tests - one at CVS, and another at a lab in New York before our cruise. Easy peasy. The area where I live, it's not so easy, and I'd like to use these tests for our Princess one in 10 days. Are the they the same? And is the X one acceptable to Princess? Any advice would be appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjmalino Posted December 8, 2021 #2 Share Posted December 8, 2021 I believe they are the same ones, just make sure that they have not expired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they expired in October but there's a note that they have been extended by 3 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Coral Posted December 8, 2021 #4 Share Posted December 8, 2021 (edited) I am guessing it is the same as long as it is supervised via Telehealth. Here is the one Princess recommends (and I am guessing same as Celebrity): https://store.optum.com/shop/products/abbott-binaxNOW-COVID-19-ag-at-home-test-kit-2-pack/?utm_source=carnival&utm_medium=referral&utm_term=&utm_content=2-pack&utm_campaign=travel_ready_covid_test&utm_nooverride=1 Edited December 8, 2021 by Coral Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merryjewelhound Posted December 8, 2021 #5 Share Posted December 8, 2021 We used the home testing and the expiration date is extended 3 months from the one printed on the package. Just make sure that you have an account set up when you go to use it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
