The changes will come into effect for cruises departing on or after 6 September. As part of its health and safety program, Windstar will still require all guests to be fully vaccinated against Covid.
The exception to this new testing procedure is that the line must follow the local rules and regulations of all the countries it visits. Currently Canada, Greece, Australia and New Zealand still require pre-testing prior to boarding any ship in their respective waters.
"Safety and wellness are our first concern, and these new procedures will simplify the process of sailing with us on a fully vaccinated ship," said Chris Prelog, president of Windstar Cruises.
