KMSP17 Posted April 26, 2022 Report Share Posted April 26, 2022 We are sailing on ML in a few weeks from Seward. Prior to joining the ship, we are doing a Celebrity Cruise Tour. I know we need a COVID test no more than two days before the land portion starts, which we will do before we leave home. Then we also need one no more than two days before the cruise starts. On boarding day (Friday) we take a bus from Denali to Seward to join the ship. I've read somewhere that they will stop somewhere in Anchorage where people can get COVID testing done. But, then I've also read that isn't true, that we need to either bring a self-test with us and do the testing (via tele-health monitoring) on our own, or arrange testing on our own. When I called Celebrity they said they will stop in Anchorage for testing, but I don't know if the person understood my question. Would anyone happen to know if they will be stopping somewhere for testing? I am sure it will be more expensive, but it would probably be more convenient. And I've also read that if you do the monitored at home test, that you can't use a cell phone or tablet for that, it has to either be a desktop or laptop computer. Which would be really inconvenient to have to bring a desktop computer! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twangster Posted April 27, 2022 Report Share Posted April 27, 2022 Celebrity sales executives have stated that when a cruise tour has the land portion before the cruise, when the land portion is over and you reach the pier to board the ship, they will have an area set up at the pier for testing you. It takes 15 minutes then assuming you are negative you board the ship. Kathleen and KMSP17 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D and D at Sea Posted June 10, 2022 Report Share Posted June 10, 2022 We are leaving for our Alaska Cruisetour on June 11th and are bringing a few emed tests with us so we can test two days before boarding and the day before disembarking in Vancouver for our flight back to the U.S. This will make it a little easier for us.
