BklynBorn47 Posted March 6, 2022 #51 Share Posted March 6, 2022 I will be following this thread closely. 43 cruises but never on MSC so far. We were just about to book the Meraviglia from Marseille on 25 Sept back to the US (Oct 13) as an alternative to flying home after B2B in the Mediterranean (Windstar). Our booster was Nov 12th. So our April 25 -June 2 European cruise is OK regardless of anybody's 9 month rule, but by Sept we are out of that time frame. Windstar thinks of Nov booster is fine. We would get another booster if one was available to us, but I'm not sure what the US rules are. Oh joy, something else to research. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

janlou77 Posted March 11, 2022 #53 Share Posted March 11, 2022 The UK website for Northern European cruises has changed today. The booster vaccination no longer expires after 9 months! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may all thank me later 😛 Seriously though, after taking an email beyond customer services, to their UK marketing and sales director, I had a response today, around the time of the change, to say that with hindsight, they had worded it badly and unintentionally caused worry and confusion.

Do you have a link for the UK info that you included above in relation to the booster not expiring? I cannot find what you posted anywhere, on any part of any MSC site. Many thanks. Hey there my dear! i am so sorry, I am on a cruise right now but here is the UK website that I have it from. https://www.msccruises.co.uk/health-and-safety-measures/mediterranean you find it under the embarcation infos. Hope I could help. tina Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MISSGJ Posted March 12, 2022 #57 Share Posted March 12, 2022 I’m so confused (it doesn’t take a lot.) Am I right I’m reading from all this that it doesn’t matter when I had the initial 2 shots as long as I’ve had my booster within the last 9 months and more than 14 days before departure?

It does not matter wether your booster was within the last 9 months. 9 months only apply to the initial vaccination without a booster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if for example your first two vaccines were a year ago but you’ve had a booster, you are fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RudiRatlos Posted March 12, 2022 #60 Share Posted March 12, 2022 If you had the booster more than 14 days before embarkation, everything else does not matter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BHBillH Posted March 12, 2022 #61 Share Posted March 12, 2022 (edited) right now if you had the booster your good, second booster not approved for general public yet..... https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/vaccines/faq.html%23:~:text%3DIf%20you%20receive%20a%20vaccine,than%20the%20recommended%20interval.&ved=2ahUKEwj-l9CessH2AhWblGoFHQ5FBZIQFnoECD0QBQ&usg=AOvVaw1hot91sih7Qjc9SVpFxWUV Edited March 12, 2022 by BHBillH info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare steamboats Posted March 13, 2022 #62 Share Posted March 13, 2022 Still not changed on the German website... steamboats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RudiRatlos Posted March 13, 2022 #63 Share Posted March 13, 2022 (edited) Right now (1.15pm CET, Mar 13th) the German website shows a literal translation of the above linked UK-site (#56). It was about the mediterranean here, for cruises in northern europe it has still the 9 months for booster also (just bad wording IMHO).
