The changes – which come into place on 6 September – will also see the line drop its rule for unvaccinated guests to provide proof of travel insurance, unless required by a destination, such as Bermuda. Travel insurance is still required for all guests visiting Fiji.
Guests have been advised some destinations do not accept unsupervised pre-cruise self-testing, such as Bermuda, Canada, Greece, and Spain. If used for visiting these destinations, self-testing must be supervised by a medical professional.
Regardless of the type of test taken, unvaccinated guests will be required to present their negative test results via VeriFLY or as part of the embarkation process.
A spokesperson for the line said: "These changes are consistent with what local destinations have advised will be acceptable for arriving cruise guests, and Carnival will continue to work closely with local destinations to protect the health of its guests, crew and the communities the cruise line visits."
