Hi, we have a cruise booked in Aug sailing from Southampton (UK Travellers) i didnt know they accept Lloyds Pharmacy in store tests but this is much better for us as we live nowhere near a Randox test site. Hopefully these tests restriction stop as we fly to Italy in July with no tests required for fully vaccinated. 👍🏼

Lloyd's pharmacy do a pre-departure test for £29.99 actually in store. You can pre-book on their website, they do the test and provide the certificate. Takes 20 minutes.

On further reading, I realise that a rapid antigen test is a lateral flow test….🤦🏻‍♀️!

just check the cruiseline website for the specifics. most accept tests from the country of departure or home country. in my case I plan on using a proctored home test approved in US.

I looked at the Lloyds £29.99 20 minute test and it seems to be a lateral flow - not sure that’s accepted as sufficient. RC say PCR or antigen test needed.
