Holland America Line and Seabourn have become the latest Carnival Corporation brands to ease their Covid-19 testing measures for vaccinated and unvaccinated guests.

Holland America Line has removed the need for pre-cruise Covid-19 tests for guests on “most voyages"

Testing for fully vaccinated customers will be dropped for most sailings of less than 16-nights in length, while unvaccinated travellers will only need to submit proof of a negative self-administered test taken within three days of sailing.

The protocols do not apply to itineraries for countries where local regulations may vary, such as Canada, Australia, and Greece. The updated guidelines are also subject to the local regulations of applicable home ports and destinations.
