Just saw this: Effective September 3, 2022, for all sailings embarking from that date forward, vaccinated travelers will no longer need to test to embark their cruise and unvaccinated travelers may sail by providing proof of a negative PCR test no more than 72 hours prior to boarding. Children under the age of 12 will also be welcomed without any vaccination or testing requirements. Come On Celebrity, do it too!

Does taking a test on a Thursday morning before a 1:00PM Saturday boarding fall within Celebrity's two day testing window?

This will be our first time on Oceania. We are looking at an A3 cabin on the Marina. It looks like almost all of the ones available (on deck 9) for the cruise are either near the stairs or elevator. Found one a couple of doors down (towards the center0 from the Concierge Lounge and Laundry. Any experience in this location? Noise from Lounge/Laundry? Thanks

Just checked in via ap for my August cruise. We are elite (big deal?) and have a Concierge class cabin. The earliest time we could board is 1 PM. Is this what Celebrity is now calling Priority Boarding? As hotel has a 11 am check-out time it looks like we will have around 1 1/2 hours of standing with our bags (Not fun as a disabled vet) and miss the Concierge lunch. Any suggestions on getting an earlier time?
