panda5 Posted April 5, 2023 #1 Share Posted April 5, 2023 Hi. Im flying out to Tokyo from the UK on the 16th April and embarking on the Quest on the 18th April. I dont particularly want to queue dockside for a 59 dollar test only to (hopefully not) that I have covid so would prefer to do a test prior to flying. Can anyone advise who I can get this from please. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nonrev1 Posted April 6, 2023 #6 Share Posted April 6, 2023 Check posts on April 3 and your cruise. I posted a testing company that does online proctored tests with your own kits. You can do it when your flight arrives. Yes…. You have to take a Covid test before you board. It is not an Azamara thing. It is Japan. ( crazy since you don’t need one to enter Japan). For our cruise(3rd) - they had extra staffing and those that needed a Covid test did not have long waits as the 19th did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess you have not cruised from Japan, Australia or New Zealand during that time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our 2 in the last 30 days required testing. Azamara, however, is the only one not allowing self monitored tests. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
