Yes, it did. As we are staying very near the Cruise Terminal I today checked with the people manning the Covid testing station, to be certain. Their advice was to check with our cruise ship. So it seems it is no longer a Canadian requirement. All will be revealed after Tuesday!!

I have just completed our second ArriveCAN, prior to embarkation September 6, and during this process was informed that as verified fully vaccinated travellers we don't require pre=board testing. However, I am unable to find an update on the above link so ????????? I will report back after boarding.

Thanks for the correction jeffbrig, it sure is confusing.

According to this site https://travel.gc.ca/travel-covid/travel-restrictions/covid-vaccinated-travellers-entering-canada Pre-entry testing is not required "Pre-entry tests are not required for fully vaccinated travellers entering Canada by land, air or water. You must still use ArriveCAN within 72 hours before your arrival to Canada. Unvaccinated and partially vaccinated children under the age of 12 are not required to provide a valid pre-entry test result, if they are accompanying a fully vaccinated adult. Children who are less than 5 years old are not required to test, regardless of their vaccination status."

Sorry, I should have mentioned it has a warm inner lining and we found it plenty warm enough on our last visit to Alaska.

We are on this voyage as well. Here is a suggested packing list, with a link to ordering your jackets. https://www.seabourn.com/en_US/luxury-cruise-destinations/alaska-experience-packing-list.html

purplealley, it may be that your cruise credit expired. Our cruise credit also expires next month.

I agree with you purpleally......no reasonable excuse was given for CANCELLING our cruise. We are/were diehard Seabourn fans with over 250 days onboard. We have rebooked an Arctic cruise on Scenic Eclipse instead.
