You can't book any longer than 13 days out and it took me being online on that particular website from midnight until after 2 a.m. on the13th day to get my husband and me booked for that test to satisfy the cruiseline's requirements. BS?? For sure!! I could test negative 48 hours out and then positive at 72 hours for all we know, BUT, those are the hoops we jump through to be able to live our lives despite Covid. I also had no interest in paying $175/pp (as I'd heard someone did over in Winter Park) for the test, just to be able to satisfy these requirements. IMO, if the cruiselines is mandating negative testing to cruise, they should be providing said tests at the pier at no cost to you! In a perfect world, huh?? Good luck to you in finding the testing you need in the time frame you need it done!!

That’s so funny ! Cruise lines provide free tests! On a cruise with face diapers 6 feet apart like cattle.couldn’t wait ? I bet they increased prices 30% from February 2030
