Camden72 Posted June 15, 2022 #1 Share Posted June 15, 2022 First time RC cruiser here. Does RC use the Verifly app or something similar to put your vaccination and Covid test results in to make check in quicker or do we just bring our vaccination cards and negative tests with us in hard copy form?

Upload vax card to the RC app and bring hard copies of both vax card and negative test. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flamingos Posted June 15, 2022 #4 Share Posted June 15, 2022 Hard copies, just to prevent fumbling around on the phone trying to find the different apps. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4everAfamily Posted June 16, 2022 #5 Share Posted June 16, 2022 Print each travelers’ cruise boarding pass and COVID test result. Bring passports and COVID vaccination cards. Not only does this speed up the process, but the agents appreciate it. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BirdTravels Posted June 16, 2022 #6 Share Posted June 16, 2022 Having hardcopy will speed up your screening and check-in. The silliest people who hold up the line are those folks that have things only on their phones. They are frantically flipping between multiple test results (entering passwords), vax cards, set sail passes, arriveCAN (for Canadian cruises). While they fumble, the rest of us with old fashion paper flash that and walk on by. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregoryfo Posted June 16, 2022 #7 Share Posted June 16, 2022 Verifly is an app that Carnival uses where everything is in one place on the app so no phone fumbling. You submit your vac card and negative test in advance, it is verified and it gives you a check for each needed piece of data. We used it for our April cruise and it was great. Camden there is unfortunately not a RC equivalent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare craig01020 Posted June 16, 2022 #8 Share Posted June 16, 2022 Always printed docs here. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nelblu Posted June 16, 2022 #9 Share Posted June 16, 2022 (edited) I do both, in case some port(s) require paper copies. In addition, I have a copy of the Vaxx card as a photo on my phone. Had since my booster shot during the pandemic as security in case I lost the original. Edited June 16, 2022 by nelblu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davekathy Posted June 16, 2022 #11 Share Posted June 16, 2022 (edited) Hard copies. Flying and cruising. With my luck I'd be the one fumbling around with my phone and holding up the line. Edited June 16, 2022 by davekathy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Camden there is unfortunately not a RC equivalent. You knew exactly what I was asking! I did like the fact that you put all vaccines cards and test results in and they verified them and, once you turned green, you were good to go. I still had everything printed just in case cell service wasn’t good but it gave me piece of mind knowing everything was legit and there were no issues with testing dates or anything.

five. Posted June 16, 2022 #13 Share Posted June 16, 2022 We used Verifly with Holland America recently and it made embarkation much faster, however it doesn't look like Royal is an option. I see: Carnival, Cunard, P&O, Viking, HAL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokeybandit Posted June 16, 2022 #14 Share Posted June 16, 2022 I don't know how other cruise lines do pier check in, but with RC Verifly wouldn't help anything since they still look at all your documents at the pier anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
