How did everyone make out taking the PCR test today?

I am booked for this Sunday 9/26.  So far so good.  Had to take a PCR covid 19 test 92 hours before boarding with negative results.  Download test results and send to Bermuda for a permit to travel by ship.

Are they sailing at 100% capacity?

So you only have to register once.  Only one bar code.  Very confusing.    The first test done a few days before is a nasal swab correct?

I received another letter from NCL regarding registering for the Antigen covid test which will be done at the dock and they will pay for it.  I went on to look at the site and it is the same lab we all already registered for, for the PCR test.  Do we register again the the Antigen Test?

Last week on September 9 NCL sent out a letter explaining the process. It appears that your PCC did not get that letter or did not understand that the process changed. NCL process is identical to the Crystal cruises process except for a few things.

Now I just received another letter from NCL saying to register for the Antigen Covid Test.  When I went to do it, it's the same lab that we registered with for the PCR test.  Do we register again?  I asked NCL they have not gotten back with me.  

thank you both.

Goldmom no we are not.  Thank you for the info.  I am just overwhelmed and in tears.  I am in south jersey.

Thank you eynsteinp but I have.... they all are say 1 to 2 days but may take up to 5.  

Where are you getting this test done?  

Where are you getting this test done?  We live in Mays Landing NJ

I agree.

where are you getting it done?  We are going to CVS and they said 1 to 2 days for results.  I cannot believe everyone will have these results back in time.  Well if not I save $$$ on the excursions I booked in Bermuda.  Just will not be able to get off ship.  This is my 4th time in Bermuda.  Really wanted to go fishing.

Correct. You are to test on Wednesday and Bermuda has stated they deadline for submitting your completed application is Saturday at 2:00pm. I personally hope to have my results and compete my application by the end of day on Friday in order to allow more time, as Bermuda also states it can take up to 24 hours to process your application. My scheduled arrival time at the terminal is 9:30am on Sunday, so I think I would be cutting it WAY too close if I submitted my application anytime on Saturday.

Thanks for getting back with me Jamie.   We live in Mays Landing NJ.... I am overwhelmed with all of this.  Our check in time is 12-12:30.... that's another worry TRAFFIC AND MY HUSBANDS DRIVING (LOL).  I don't believe we will have to wear fast mask onboard.  After all this testing the Breakaway and Bermuda should be the safest place on the planet.

are you worried that the PCR test will be back in time for boarding.  We are taking it on Wednesday 9/22.  also do you know if we must wear mask?  After all this testing I think the Breakaway and Bermuda will be the safest place on the planet.

We are on this cruise. Definitely check out the Roll Call page. It's pretty active with a nice size M & G list.

just received the notice regarding the PCR testing 4 days before getting to the ship.  I am worried the test results will not be back in time are you?

We started Wednesday because that was two weeks out from the PCR test we are required to do for Bermuda's Travel Authorization process. The first in a series of 3-4 tests we are going to have to take before we board the ship on the 26th.

We are going on the same cruise.  I am just worried that the test results (PCR) will not be back in time for sailing.  They only give you 4 days prior to sailing to get it done.  Results take at least two days.

Is anyone beside myself overwhelmed with the covid 19 PCR testing and hoping to get the results in time for sailing?

Yes out of NYC on the Norweign's Breakaway September 26, 2021.

So sorry to hear this ravens bad.  My neighbor is devastated over hers being cancelled on 10/31.   Just wondering Ravensbad where were you cruising out of?

Any one out there cruising out of NYC on the Breakaway September 26th?  

Why did Royal Caribbean canceled their October 31st cruise out of Puerto?

I just want to know if the Beverage packages or worth it.  $59.00 a day.... yes we drink about 5 drinks per day.  Does anyone know the price lets say of a Manhattan to see if the package is worth it.  Thank you in advance!
