Creator's Key Takeaways

we have major cruise restart news for three vessels out of the united states plus the us versus canada the clash of the titans

the cruise line said we are looking forward to welcoming you on board for your upcoming cruise our team has been busy working on the restart of our guest operations

you need to make sure that if you're ordering this test kit from emed or from optum make sure you're getting the dark blue box with the airplane or the business travelers photographed on the side of it

the logistics of making this service widely available to a large number of guests does not make this a viable option

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Ensure you purchase the proctored Abbott BinaxNOW home test kits (dark blue box, 'Rx Only') for pre-cruise testing
βœ“Pre-purchase admission to Jetty Park for sail away viewing events at Port Canaveral
βœ“Check expiration dates on home test kits immediately upon receipt as they may expire sooner than advertised
