Of course RCCL CSR's are not exactly reliable, but it's about 5 people saying this. So, that make me wonder that since RCCL's protocols are listed as being through Sept. 2022, if they will just keep everything that way and then let it expire as of Oct. 1. Boo! I sail from Copenhagen on Sept 4th. Pre-cruise testing needs to end Sept 1st. 🤞 Edited July 18, 2022 by Another_Critic 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully they will just change it so I don't have to for my Sept. Allure cruise 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken at the beach Posted July 18, 2022 Author #28 Share Posted July 18, 2022 Just heard that the cruise lines are meeting tomorrow morning. Looks like they may be trying to a consensus on how to proceed. 9 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Project-College Posted July 18, 2022 #36 Share Posted July 18, 2022 I willing to forfeit the cost of my Proctored exams for the 'ease of mind' of not taking the test 2 DAYS before we leave!!!! 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovescats5 Posted July 18, 2022 #37 Share Posted July 18, 2022 Here's hoping they discontinue the pre-cruise testing before Sept. 19. It would be wonderful to not have to worry about that. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BND Posted July 18, 2022 #43 Share Posted July 18, 2022 Thursday would work for me lol. We're cruising on EN on Fri, but we're going to Bermuda that is one of the last holdouts requiring testing. I'll take Oct 1 as our next cruise after this Fri is Nov 6 out of PC on Jewel. It'd be nice to not have to worry/think about testing while in FL. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare crewsweeper Posted July 18, 2022 #44 Share Posted July 18, 2022 My thoughts are that cruise lines will stop limiting non-vaxxed passengers but maintain the testing in order to meet destination ports guidelines . 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare DragonOfTheSeas Posted July 18, 2022 #45 Share Posted July 18, 2022 Our cruise is to the Baltic. those countries stopped testing requirements some time ago. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashland Posted July 18, 2022 #46 Share Posted July 18, 2022 We cruise out of Amsterdam next Tuesday the 26th....hoping pre-cruise test will stop but doubtful RCI will make the change that fast. But maybe for our Sept 18th cruise out of Vancouver. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
