MIAMI— Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings Ltd. last week announced it will no longer require guests to complete pre-cruise COVID-19 testing unless required by local regulations. The policy will go into effect across the Norwegian Cruise Line, Oceania Cruises and Regent Seven Seas Cruises beginning August 1, 2022. However, the pre-embarkation testing requirement will remain in place for guests currently travelling on voyages departing from destinations with local testing regulations, including but not limited to the U.S., Canada, Greece and Bermuda.
The relaxation of the testing policy is in line with the rest of the travel, leisure and hospitality industry worldwide as society continues to adapt and return to a state of normalcy. The Company also continues to strongly recommend all guests be up to date on vaccination protocols and test at their convenience prior to travel.
