Anthem of the Seas Cruise Reviews - Q&A

Which cruise line stopped it? Blessed cruise!

I don’t think they will stop the testing yet. The Covid numbers are still going up again, and they predict another increase in the fall.

truly hope so, we are sailing on the Anthem on the 23 Sept sailing out of Southampton. I have read the cruise lines are pushing for it but with the Covid infection rate in the UK going up I guess it's unlikely

they do test at the port in the uk ,but the option to test yourself is much better.In my case it would save me 2 x 4hr drives to and from the port for nothing.

I hope so 🤞🏼 We sail on Anthem on the 14th Aug!! We fly next week to Italy for 2 weeks with no testing or providing vaccination status 🤷🏻‍♀️. We are fully vaccinated and happy to test but feel if they want is to do they should provide it at port as many pharmacies are stopping supervised lateral flow testing.

@joyandjerry... Viking River Cruises central European only. All others still need to test not just because of the CDC or WHO recommend it but because ports of call are demanding it after the way the media sensationalized all previous outbreaks on board ships when Covid first started.
