    As far as I understand you will require Internet. However, the Guest Services on a particular ship may have a way around this. Also, one person can setup/schedule more than one person...so not all people would need Internet.
    But...you will need Internet to complete the ArriveCAN app...again, you can register more than one person.

    Just got off the Jewel yesterday and back to YYZ. Here are some things to be aware of:
    Do not assume Royal/Guest Services will reach out to you for your PCR test. Expect to ask. Testing typically takes place the day before disembarkation. They currently provide no charge testing for antigen and PCR, make sure they know you need PCR. There is an app/website to fill in your information, including passport number and some other details before you go for the test (you make your appt here too). You will receive an email with your results, or, if you don't have email access, Guest Services should have the results by 6:00pm. Make sure you review your results to ensure it says PCR test. We had a friend travelling with us who got a result saying antigen when he did in fact have a PCR test. It was sorted out by Guest Services, but not without a great deal of stress. If he did not specifically examine all the details on the document, it would have been a big problem at the airport. Hope this helps.

    I'm glad this problem was much more PG rated than what the truncated thread title suggested

    It’s a judgement call.  If it continues and you reach your limit I’d suggest talking to the deck supervisor.  Ask your cabin attendant to get him or her.  Escalates from there if it doesn't improve   
    But now you know why some avoid holiday cruises or spring break cruises 😎

    If they swapped Cozumel for Bahamas, I strongly suspect it's so the ship can visit a country with a vaccine requirement so the line can get around Florida's anti-vaccine mandate law.
