I'm looking at a Princess cruise that has a stop in Grand Turk in January. I'm totally fine with staying on the ship. What I can't get a straight answer on is if I'm able to actually embark on the voyage initially without proof of vax. Princess Cruise Health tool says no vax or test required, the online chat agent said I need a test, and the phone agent said I need a vax.

If you are vaccinated this is not an issue just show your proof at embarkation. Are we to assume that you are not vaccinated and just don’t want to test ?

I'm not vaccinated, and only booked this cruise because no vax or test was required. I'm actually disembarking from another cruise in MIA that morning and hauling up to FLL to catch this cruise. Trying to schedule a covid test in between is not ideal so I'm trying to figure out my options now.

You will need to show proof of vaccination either uploaded or at embarkation. We always make sure we have visible proof of our cards. If you do not show proof of vaccination then you will need to show proof of a negative test. If you put your voyage number into the health protocol section of the Princess website you will see this requirement

Thank you! One of the problems is when I look up my voyage number (or booking number) on the Cruise Health tool it tells me that no proof of vax or test is required, that the sailing has Standard Protocols. There's also no place in my app to upload anything, no mention of vax or test or anything health-related. But my Cruise Personalizer states that I will need to upload proof of vax or test. Multiple calls to Princess and I haven't gotten any real clear answer. 

I'm on the January 7, 2023 Caribbean Princess 10-night Panama Canal, r/t from FLL. Everything on the Princess website and CruiseHealth tool say the voyage is Standard Protocols. But in my Cruise Personalizer, there is a notification that proof of vax or test is now required. 

Has anyone sailed to Colombia lately? Will there be somewhere in the app to upload this proof? Or will they ask for it at embarkation? It is possible to not show proof at embarkation and simply not get off in Colombia? 

Love your report and photos! I'm on this itinerary in January. 

Did you have to upload proof of vax or test to your app? Or show at embarkation?
