Rare rrraydon Posted August 22, 2022 #1 Share Posted August 22, 2022 I’m happy to see this! Almost all of US sailings is better than none… Also happy to see the change in protocol for testing for the vaxxed! All Guests, All Aboard Updated August 22, 2022 | Effective September 5, 2022 We’re making it easier for more guests to sail with Royal Caribbean. Unvaccinated travelers can join us for almost all U.S. sailings. Starting with September 5thdepartures, guests who are not vaccinated can sail on almost all cruises from the U.S. (except itineraries that visit Canada or Bermuda). More details. Testing protocols will be easier Starting with September 5th, for U.S. cruises that don’t visit Canada or Bermuda: Vaccinated guests won’t have to take a pre-cruise test on cruises that are shorter than 10 nights. Unvaccinated guests age 5 and up will need to test within 3 days before boarding, regardless of cruise length. We will begin accepting results from self-administered home tests.

My unvaccinated friends can sail again. 🙂 I was limited to my bookings to only friends who were vaxxed to sail with me as my cabin mate. This changes everything for me! 😊 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokeybandit Posted August 22, 2022 #4 Share Posted August 22, 2022 (edited) Unvaxxed could already sail haven't they? Just now it's been expanded to where they can sail. Edited August 22, 2022 by smokeybandit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just now it's been expanded to where they can sail. Yes, but they had to “apply” for the sailing and most times you didn’t even know if you were “accepted” until last minute. Most of my friends didn’t want to book with those stipulations…neither would I. Now they can just book like a normal a person.

Now that the majority of the US port’s statuses have been updated, I’m now waiting/hoping the EU ones start implementing some changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
