Rare BermudaBound2014 Posted June 16, 2022 #1 Share Posted June 16, 2022 Carnival Cruise Line is now permitting guests who are medically unable to be vaccinated to set sail without presenting a doctor’s note at embarkation to stipulate to their medical exemption. https://www.cruisehive.com/carnival-cruise-line-makes-minor-change-to-protocols/74220 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BlerkOne Posted June 16, 2022 #2 Share Posted June 16, 2022 They still need a vaccine exemption from Carnival in advance. These are not granted at the port and are limited in number. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nwcruiselover Posted June 16, 2022 #4 Share Posted June 16, 2022 This only applies to Caribbean sailings, so not to Alaska, Mexico, Europe, TA’s, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mz-s Posted June 16, 2022 #5 Share Posted June 16, 2022 I wouldn't be surprised to see the testing requirement gone by the end of the month. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking of the Mexican Riviera cruises out of Long Beach. The Mexican ports visited on Caribbean cruises would be included in the “no doctor’s note required.” 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ray98 Posted June 16, 2022 #9 Share Posted June 16, 2022 It is still not a free for all like many are implying. You still have to be granted one of the limited exemption slots to even get to the second step. If you happen to be granted one you requested under a medical exemption you just don't have to have a letter from your doctor now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrMarc Posted June 16, 2022 #10 Share Posted June 16, 2022 This is bad for people who legitimately cannot take the vaccine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Princess and Holland have added mask requirements back for Alaska cruises. I wouldn't be surprised if that expands. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
