I had this identical situation and question. I even sent attachments in emails that indicated (per CDC) FROM cruise line website links they provided, that a letter from a medical doctor, health department, etc., saying you have recovered should suffice. I was told, even though that information was ON the cruise line website, that was not going to work. I HAD to have a negative test. I contacted the CDC (email and actual phone conversation) and was told that the cruise lines did NOT have to abide by CDC regulations - they were "guidelines." True story. Then why even post any of this on cruise line sites?? It turned into a ridiculous mess. I have had COVID twice. Once prior to available vaccines and once after both vaccines. I also got a booster and an antibody test. I tested positive on PCR (took five days for results) and then got a 24-hour test at the hospital the SAME DAY which came back negative. I did that as I was told I should, since the other results would not be back in time. This was for a cruise. Sad story is we were unable to go....my husband tested positive on the hospital 24-hour test! It is absurd. Surely SOMEONE else besides us have run into this issue. I would do an at-home test a few days prior to your actual time to really test to see what happens. I was inadvertently around a bunch of people with COVID over Thanksgiving. So now what?? We are supposed to go January 9th. This all has to stop. A virus mutates and won't go away, so we need to live life.....

I would like to know this, too. Same situation. We don't live where Rapid tests, etc., are around every corner,
and the "at-home" RCCL recommends have December 2021 expiration dates! It is ridiculous after awhile.

Same around here. We bought the RCCL approved proctored at-home tests through their site. They arrived in two days. I would do that.
