Please kindly check the current regulations prior your trip.

Recommendation: Due to the pandemic, the test, vaccination and/or entry requirements may change at short notice before the start of the journey. We therefore recommend that you check the current regulations for travelers and returnees in good time before your trip (Royal Caribbean).
