Loops Posted August 7, 2022 Report Share Posted August 7, 2022 @Bowen, when is your cruise, where do you embark, and what are the destination ports. Thanks and I hope this is an indication of a significant relaxation in protocols. CharmMicah68 and WAAAYTOOO 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I think) Lots can happen in 6 weeks, I have my fingers crossed for you. Worth noting however, at the current moment, Grand Cayman requires vaccinations of its visitors.

The Fox Posted August 7, 2022 Report Share Posted August 7, 2022 So looking forward to something besides Costa Maya out of Galveston. Bowen 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bowen Posted August 7, 2022 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2022 Oh wait, is it Costa Maya? I had one in August that had a different itinerary and I get the two mixed up. I honestly didn't think we'd be going on either so I didn't pay a lot of attention. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salca Posted August 9, 2022 Report Share Posted August 9, 2022 I was doing check in on Sunday and there was a spot to load vaccinations cards… today the spot is gone. CrimsonCruiser and WAAAYTOOO 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrimsonCruiser Posted August 9, 2022 Report Share Posted August 9, 2022 Interesting.....I have the same lack of vaccination card area...which makes me a teeny bit concerned seeing as we definitely still need it for our cruise next Saturday AND we uploaded them AND got them confirmed....AND the health protocols page still says we need them... hopefully just another example of Royal IT.

Even when the vaccine details option was there to upload it, you still had to take your vaccination card to the port to be allowed on. You weren't really required to upload it. So you should be good!

That if you didn't have it uploaded they had to manually enter the information then and there...at least...that's what I remember happening last year...

Ampurp85 Posted August 9, 2022 Report Share Posted August 9, 2022 It was to save time because yes if it was not uploaded the crew member with the iPad had to enter in all the info. I am sure it will be back as this was a good way to measure the number of vax pax. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you didn't upload it they would have to take a photo of the vax card at check in. Perhaps they are treating the vax cards like the Covid test results where you only need to show them and they no longer need to retain the images. Who knows..maybe we will hear from cruises this week of the any changes they notice to the check in procedures at boarding time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
