CookingChick2020 Posted June 4, 2022 #1 Share Posted June 4, 2022 Hi fellow cruisers! Wondering if anyone has insight into onboard pre-debarkation testing on Regent. We are staying an extra day in Barcelona post-cruise but need to be tested prior to flight back to U.S. Our ship docks at 6AM so I'm not sure how we might be able to test onboard before we disembark. Thoughts? thank you for your insight! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PSU Posted June 4, 2022 #2 Share Posted June 4, 2022 I would think that you would have to find a test in Barcelona or bring an emed proctored home test with you and do it in the hotel room in Barcelona. Unless you booked the hotel through Regent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LvnCruisin Posted June 4, 2022 #3 Share Posted June 4, 2022 We brought 3 extra emed tests with us ( one extra in case something happened to one of them) some testing places are more strict about making sure the box hasn't been opened before they start the test. But you can find a pharmacy and test there as well. If you are more than 24 hours from your flight you can't safely test on the ship. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PSU Posted June 4, 2022 #5 Share Posted June 4, 2022 I would think so. We did a three day after cruise with Regent last month last month in Istanbul and they tested us the day before we left for the US at the hotel. We actually stayed at the Hotel Sofia before the cruise it started in Barcelona. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was prepared to go through eMed but this would be better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe the policy to re-enter the U.S. is that the test needs to be taken within one day bfore flying, not 24 hours. This would give a bit more flexibility. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LvnCruisin Posted June 5, 2022 #8 Share Posted June 5, 2022 That may be, on our cruise the tests on the ship were performed the day before we got to Barcelona, you could choose morning or afternoon - I believe the last test was at 5 pm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
