US entry requirements - Alaska ( Vancouver -> Seattle )

[mitchmagi]

Apologies if this has no doubt been asked hundreds of times before.

 

The US requires a negative COVID test for entry into the country when arriving by air. Does the same apply for those arriving via cruise ? I'm getting conflicting info.

 

If so - what is the situation for those cruises that are meant to depart from Vancouver and arrive in Seattle. Will Royal be testing pax onboard prior to docking in Seattle ? Is it every person for themself and you are reliant on an "online" test option that you need to bring with you onboard ? Any other options ?

Question answered - doesn't apply to those arriving via sea ...

Too early to speculate the requirements for this year's Alaska season.
