AMP do you work for RCL? 

That is in place until sometime in 2023 I believe

I would say you probably right, however if they want full ships it will have to go away sooner than later depending on when they want 100% capacity. Can’t be back to “normal” without normal process to board 

I noticed the current protocols are in place until April 14. Any chance they do away with testing for vaccinated individuals after that? Was thinking they might since they CDC lowered the cruise warning level 

RCL will end the pre-cruise covid test for vaccinated individuals sooner than later. It’s not a CDC policy so RCL can end it when they want and like someone stated since cruise with confidence has ended they will have no choice but to drop the pre-cruise covid test for vaccinated individuals due to not being able to get your money back anymore if you test positive. 

The CDC does not require a negative covid test to cruise if you are fully vaccinated

I like the analogy @Matt used on his livestream that getting rid of the protocols is like saying ‘hey our team is in first place, we should get rid of our best players, we don’t need them’. I don’t like the testing either but it is what has made cruising able to happen and keep numbers low.

When looking  at ship status on the CDC web page there are still cases being detected across all lines. I personally just feel a little safer getting on SOS nest month if they keep the current requirements..

If you tested everyone who got on an airplane you would find positive cases and they don’t require any pre-flight covid test. Yes, I know they still require masks but that’s more on the unions than the airlines themselves. Disney is wide open no masks and yet no required negative test.

It’s a bad analogy…that would fit better if saying they getting rid of vaccine requirements all together. The pre-cruise test for vaccinated individuals needs to go…it’s more like sending down your top prospect to get more AB to be better.
