COVID-19 Entry Requirements Change Again

The best way to describe the COVID-19 pandemic is "ever-changing." So is it any surprise that the entry requirements for the different countries on our itinerary keep changing? IMHO ... no.

Got an email from O today outlining the latest entry requirements for our EuroCrossing. This is the third such message in as many weeks. And each has had different requirements.

I'm not going to go through all the changes, but I will mention two.

Morrocco is now listed as being closed to cruise ships. Will that change by the time we are scheduled to arrive on 3 April? I guess we will just have to wait and see.

The other potentially concerning change? Israel. The requirements are now listed as pending. That could be good ... meaning less cumbersome requirements. Or it could be bad ... meaning more cumbersome requirements. I guess we will just have to wait and see.

In any event, there’s not much we can do at present other than making sure we meet the Bermuda and O embarkation requirements for Miami next week and go with the flow for everything else.Read more
