Covid testing- days prior to departure

[AACJ]

I'm a little confused about the wording of MSC's Covid testing requirements. 

 

 It says "All fully COVID-19 vaccinated guests are required to show proof of a negative antigen or RT-PCR test taken no more than 2 days prior to ship embarkation."  

 

So is 2 days prior, the day before and the day of the cruise?  The day prior is our travel day and we don't want to go search all over Miami for a test site.  Or is it 2 days prior to the day of the cruise?

 

We recently went on Celebrity Summit and it was "two days" but they spelled the timing out perfectly to avoid confusion.  For example, they said if you ship departs on a Sunday, you can get tested Friday or Saturday.  Even our travel documents it stated the days we could get tested.  

 

And MSC's call center is no help either.  The lady I talked to on the phone today sounded like she'd already started drinking and was just reading off of the MSC website, which I was calling to get clarification on.  She had no clue.

It's the same time frame you had with the Summit. If you leave on Saturday, you can get tested Thursday, Friday, or Saturday morning.

And it’s 2 days -  not 48 hours. Early morning Thursday for a Saturday evening departure is okay.

We made the mistake of coming in two days before our cruise on June 18th of this month.

We always test at home but can't this time. Has anyone tested near the Port of Miami and where?

Thanks in advance.

Did you check the airports?  Both MIA and FLL had them when we sailed despite local pharmacies not, but this was months ago.  Can't do the emed online?
