AshleyDillo Posted February 17, 2022 Report Share Posted February 17, 2022 27 minutes ago, Kathryn said: Can the antigen test needed for boarding be from a pharmacy It has to be administered by someone at the pharmacy with official printed results. You can not purchase an over the counter self-test at a pharmacy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pattycruise Posted February 17, 2022 Report Share Posted February 17, 2022 yes, be sure you can either get a printout of results or a way to access them electronically (then a screenshot is great so you don't have to worry about connecting at the pier) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted February 18, 2022 Report Share Posted February 18, 2022 I'd recommend the at-home test Royal accepts https://www.royalcaribbeanblog.com/2021/08/20/i-tried-the-home-covid-19-test-royal-caribbean-accepts Coachkev24 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Filippo Posted February 18, 2022 Report Share Posted February 18, 2022 Hi, My wife and I will be taking cruise on 25 May 2022 with Royal Caribbean "Odyssy of the Seas" The ship leaves from Civita-Vechia (Rome) but we will be in Rome 1 (one ) week before. Can we take a "Covid 19 Test" from a pharmacy in Rome 2 days before we board?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eirc Posted February 21, 2022 Report Share Posted February 21, 2022 How early should we order the tests? We have a cruise in May. My concern is the expiration dates on the test kits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My concern is the expiration dates on the test kits. I wouldn't worry about this much anymore as they seem to be sending out fresh tests. We've had people tracking this anecdotally for about 2 months now, and it's been looking good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
