Homeports & Destinations
We are working
with local governments in the Eastern Caribbean to align on vaccination
requirements for more itineraries. We want to ensure a great experience going
ashore at these ports, for guests of any vaccination status, while meeting
local health regulations. We’ll share information as it becomes available to
both you and your clients.  We continue to maintain additional layers of
protection that far exceed any other vacation experience - This includes
vaccination of all crew and keeping them up to date with boosters when
eligible, routine surveillance of all crew, enhanced testing, and treatment
capabilities in our onboard medical centers, and much more.
