Thats good to know For my flight to Gibraltar in 2weeks i have to have flight seat number first before i can complete the forms. Different countries Different rules! Always best to check though as things change quickly

I know that in Europe these forms need not only your flight details but also your seat number. So unless you pay well in advance for seats on flight you cannot fill out forms until after you have checked in on flight

Do you know if there is a fee involved for this service for non PR or US citizens? Across here in the UK we get all testing done FOC, this includes packs of 7 Antigen tests sent to anyones home whenever they are requested.

Challenge accepted

As soon as i hit the Airport Lounge thats me officially on Holiday!

Given the fact there are German and Jewish cruisers on this forum your choice of words in your comparison is very poor !!!!

If people are currently ignoring RC instructions regarding not turning up until near their check in time do you honestly believe they will take any notice of another email basically saying the same? Twangsters right its people that are the problem! Its people thinking they can do as the want and screw the rest as long as they are ok

I absolutely hated the smell of smoke in the casino on FOTS! The smell and the smoke made it an unpleasant experience and if being honest i couldn't wait to get outside for some fresh air....so i headed to the smoking area at pool deck.........yes i was a smoker at the time...about 30 a day and it was bad even for me! Said a few times previously that it should be banned indoors hopefully it is right across the fleet

Its the government's of each country making the rules not RC

Matt really annoyed as i didnt get any of these emails lol Joking got 1 from carib-life

Please tell me Carmines on times Sq is still open

Im booked out of PR in March with a 4 day stop in NYC on way back to UK. Cant see it happening but cant change it as she who must be obeyed is missing the shops in New York and is having severe withdrawal symptoms

I read somewhere that the issue with UK and parts of EU relates to the fact that the US doesnt recognise UK vaccine so basically everyone is being classed as unvaccinated.

Update on UK travel restrictions...All UK governments have moved their goalposts AGAIN!!!! As of Oct the Traffic light system is GONE and new rules will be in place for each country. there will only a red list! If your country is not on the red list then you will be able to visit with very few measures needed to travel. For entry to England No preflight test is needed if person is vaccinated and only a lateral flow test on day 2.

Most important thing is to check routes that you can travel without restrictions. A stop off even for just 50 mins in a country thats not on the green list of the country you are visiting could result in issues on arrival or when heading home.

Right now no EU or UK citizens can enter the US ( there are a exceptions but cruising isnt one of them) Would be ok for US travelers if whatever quarantine regulations are in place at time of travel are acceptable to those who wish to cruise.

Virgin Cruises appear to be for those looking for a party style Cruise.

You could take the train from Venice to Bologna then from there to Porto Corsini, travel time is about 4hrs but would work out less $$$$ for the trip.

How easy / difficult will it be for non US citizens to get tests done 2 days prior to cruise if flying into NYC on wed then down to PR on the Friday for Sunday Cruise! Presuming tests would need to be done on the Friday in PR.

The best and easiest way for anyone to find out the regulations for countries they are visiting is to read that countries government website.

No!! Most if not all European counties have the traffic light system in place, your R Rate increases then you are moving down the colours! A country has been placed on green list, 2 weeks later its amber again due to increase in cases, this is nothing against US its just how it is countries looking after there own, What US does is to most people of little concern only those like myself that has cruise booked check to see whats happening across the pond

Bloody hell by the time you read all that quarantine would be finished ?

when they cancelled they probably had discussed things and had a few ideas of what they would do with FCC, i would just stick to those plans!

The amount of cruises any person has been on or their level of membership should not even come into the equation! When it comes to drinks package, excursions or anything else on the cruise planner everyone is and should be in the same boat..

Those that are coughing and sweating to the left those that are not to the right ?
