From 2 March 2023, guests on ships will no longer be required to have a Covid vaccination, provide proof of recovery or undergo pre-departure testing unless required by local regulations.
All Celestyal crew members will continue to be fully vaccinated. The company said it “encourages” guests aged 12 and over to be fully vaccinated.
It added: “Regardless of vaccination status, Celestyal will continue to recommend that all guests departing from any port get tested at leisure prior to travel to ensure a comfortable and enjoyable travel experience. These results will not be required to board the vessel.”
Celestyal’s chief commercial officer Leslie Peden added: “Our crew will continue to maintain our stringent hygiene protocols based upon the most up-to-date guidelines from the European Healthy Gateways, Clia and Greek health authorities.”
