No, if you are only required to make an ArriveCAN submission when you are going to enter Canada. So you need one to fly into Vancouver, but that's all, as you are disembarking in Alaska. If your cruise was Vancouver-Alaska-Vancouver, then you would need a second submission as you would be exiting and re-entering Canada, but not in your case with the end of the cruise in Alaska.

You've got it! 😇

Your testing timeline is fine. From the NCL website: Unless otherwise stipulated by local regulations (Cruise Travel Requirements by Country) that would supersede our policy, at time of check-in, all guests above the age of 2 will be required to provide proof of a negative COVID-19 antigen or NAAT test (I.e. PCR) result administered by a verified third party or via medically supervised home test within two days prior to embarkation date for cruises originating in a U.S. or Canadian port and within three days prior for voyages departing from a non-U.S. port. Guests must bring digital or printed proof of negative test results. The linked "Cruise Travel Requirements by Country" does not contain anything for Denmark that would change the three-day time frame. No need for COVID test for you outbound flights or for your entry to US at disembarkation. The timing for your ArriveCAN app submission is fine. You can do it up to 72 hours in advance, but doing it after disembarking is fine. It seems like you have everything covered. Enjoy your cruise!

Ontarians have been using these downloads in their varying formats from the outset. HAL and other lines have accepted them without issue. The fact that the name of the nurse, pharmacist, etc., who administered the shot or the location of the clinic, doctor's office, etc., isn't listed has not presented a problem.

The easiest solution is to go to the Ontario government website and download and print your records. All of the information required by HAL will be on the download. I personally take a print with me to avoid any issue with my phone. https://covid-19.ontario.ca/get-proof/

Very happy to get our email, as we thought our FCC would be unusable.

Here's Episode #2 for the Getaway 8 Day Rhine Highlights for those interested:

These are the ones that I've used for years. Tremendous holding power. https://www.leevalley.com/en-ca/shop/hardware/hooks/storage/73796-magnet-mounted-hooks?item=09A0496

We've had an annual policy for a number of years. One of the advantages that many people overlook is the coverage for out of province travel. For example, a few years ago we had a a trip to Montreal planned, with a hotel booked and train tickets purchased, both non-refundable. A medical issue arose a couple of days before our departure and the insurance covered us without any issue.

CBSA has stated that on their website since their announcement on April 4. See post #2. I'm not sure that CTV's reporting reflects any actual movement towards resolution.

Can you provide a link to the text you have quoted? That certainly was the policy, but I think you'll find that HAL dropped the re-testing for B2B passengers within the past month.

You need a single ArriveCAN submission for the cruise, completed before boarding. While you will need to show your receipt at check in, the submission is for your re-entry to Canada at the end of your cruise. This avoids potential issues of passengers not having internet access during the cruise, and just like having to show your passport when checking in, it allows HAL to ensure that there won't be problems at the end of the cruise.

There is no current requirement for a retest for the second leg, just a negative test prior to your initial embarkation in Boston.

As a B2B passenger, your cruise ends in Boston. Consequently, for the question "Is your cruise terminating in Canada?" the answer is "No." The question of the address at which you will be staying won't even pop up now.

As you can enter Canada using the NEXUS self-serve kiosks, regardless of where you are flying in from, I'm curious as to why you would switch to your passport for your return from Africa..

As it allows you to enter either one, it probably makes no difference if you have both. DW and I entered our Nexus information.

Two different scenarios: 1. For a Montreal - Boston cruise, your are already in Canada and remain there until you leave Canadian waters and continue on to the US. At no point do you "enter" Canada as you have never left, and no ArriveCAN submission is required. 2. A Vancouver - Alaska - Vancouver cruise takes you out of Canada and into a foreign country before re-entering Canada and returning to Vancouver. As your cruise enters Canada having visited a foreign country, an ArriveCAN submission is required. In my previous post, I thought it was understood that we are talking about cruises that cross into foreign waters. Perhaps there would be less confusion if I amended it to say: "There is no current requirement to make an ArriveCAN submission for a cruise embarking at a Canadian port but not stopping elsewhere in Canada or disembarking in Canada at the end of the cruise having first entered foreign waters."

Baggage handling is a shared responsibility between the airport authority and the airline. That applies to both departing and arriving flights. When you check in and the airline employee takes your checked bag and places it on the moving belt, responsibility for the luggage rests with the airport until contracted employees of the airline are given access to it to load on their little baggage trailers and drive them to the plane to load them. From what I've read, the majority of bags that go missing do so in the bowels of the airport, where they end up being misdirected. The fact that over 100 people on the same flight didn't receive their bags suggests that the fault may well lie with the airport authority, not Air Canada. I don't know which airport you flew from, but it seems that there are multiple issues at the major airports that aren't the fault of the airlines, although they often get the blame. That said, there is no excuse for the lack of communication from Air Canada. In the event that the contact information you have differs from that on the website, I'm providing the following: I agree completely with your comments on taking essentials in your carry on, mixing family clothes and not volunteering to have your carry on checked. Wishing you the best of luck getting your lost bags back today!

Given the outrageous prices charged onboard in the past, we always bring our own OTC meds along with our first aid kit.

As the others have stated, there is no Canadian government requirement for you to be tested prior to a flight to Canada. Could you post the Delta information giving rise to your concern?

Random testing upon arrival in Canada will never prevent possible infection of other passengers by someone who is positive during the flight. The only way to prevent that is to require pre-flight negative tests from all passengers, as Canada did until recently and as the US continues to do. Personally, I'd be more concerned about all the Canadians and other nationalities flying into Canada who haven't been tested but may well be infectious. I'd think that, statistically, they'd pose a greater threat than an occasional positive American trying to sneak back into the US through Canada.

No, no test is required for a US domestic flight.

Hi Annie, welcome to Cruise Critic and the Canadian Cruisers board. As you are new here, let me give you a very quick guide. There are several different places where you can seek information. Most people start with the board for the cruiseline they are booked on or have an interest in. There will be threads on a wide variety of subjects specific to that particular cruiseline. Roll Calls are boards where passengers who have booked a cruise can exchange information and ideas with other passengers. That's the perfect place for you to ask your question and to get to know your fellow passengers. As I don't know what specific cruise you are on, I can't provide a link to it, but this link will take you to a page where you'll be able to find your roll call: https://boards.cruisecritic.com/forum/20-roll-calls/ Finally, the Home page is a good place to explore. You'll see that there's a wide variety of boards for you to sample. Some you will probably visit only occasionally, if at all, while others you'll return to regularly. https://boards.cruisecritic.com/ Enjoy yourself as you explore, and do become a Canadian Cruisers regular. There are lots of posters here who will be happy to answer your questions and give you a helping hand.

Yes, but I get strange looks when I'm wearing my fins at the grocery store. 😇

Yes, Rexall's administered or proctored tests are accepted.
