Guests booked on Alaska and Hawaii itineraries between April 26th and September 19th on the Disney Wonder will be receiving communication from Disney Cruise Line today detailing current health and safety protocols, including additional requirements for cruise passengers visiting Canada.
Guests booked on the Disney Wonder from April 26th through September 19th may modify their sail date or cancel their sailing without any Disney-imposed cancellation fees by March 30, 2022.
COVID-19 VACCINATION REQUIREMENTS
Currently, Disney Cruise Line continues to require all vaccine-eligible guests (based on U.S. eligibility requirements) to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19 at the time of sailing, as defined by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). This is a requirement for all guests (U.S. and international) ages 5 and older.
In consideration of guidance from the CDC and the World Health Organization, Disney Cruise Line accepts the following vaccine types: Pfizer, Moderna, Johnson & Johnson, AstraZeneca, Covishield, Novavax, Sinopharm, and Sinovac.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) defines fully vaccinated as 14 days after receiving:
Guests who are not vaccine-eligible, because of age, must provide proof of a negative COVID-19 test result (paid for by the guest) taken between 3 days and 24 hours before their sail date. Guests 4 years of age and under must complete these testing requirements.
The test should be a NAAT test, rapid PCR test, or lab-based PCR test. Rapid antigen tests are not accepted. Disney Cruise Line has secured a special rate of $98.33 per PCR test (which includes a 3.5% processing fee) through our third-party vendor, Inspire Diagnostics. Guests may also obtain their test from any independent testing supplier.
SAFE PASSAGE WEBSITE, BY INSPIRE DIAGNOSTICS:
In order to sail, all guests (adults and children, regardless of age) must upload their proof of vaccination or negative COVID-19 test results on the Safe Passage website by Inspire Diagnostics. A parent or legal guardian will need to use their own account to provide this information on behalf of minors. To learn more about how to provide proof of your negative COVID-19 test result, please visit the Before Leaving Home section of Disney Cruise Line’s Know Before You Go information.
After appropriate documents have been uploaded and reviewed by Inspire, guests should see the words “Clear to Arrive” in the Pre-Sail Screening section when they log into their Safe Passage account before arriving at the port.
It is also recommended that guests bring a copy of their proof of vaccination or negative COVID-19 PCR test result with them to the port. If you have any questions about your Safe Passage registration or status, please contact Inspire Diagnostics at 877-250-5132.
EMBARKATION COVID-19 TESTING:
In consideration of guidance from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, all guests (regardless of age and vaccination status) are required to take a COVID-19 test (paid for by Disney Cruise Line and administered by Inspire Diagnostics) at the terminal before boarding. Guests with positive COVID-19 test results—as well as those sharing the same stateroom and their close contacts—will be denied boarding.
FACE COVERINGS
Face coverings are not required for guests outdoors while onboard the ship. Face coverings will be optional in most indoor locations throughout the ship. Guests under 5 years of age who are currently ineligible to be vaccinated will be required to wear face coverings in Youth Activity spaces and in the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique; and, while not required, we continue to strongly recommend these guests wear a face covering in all other indoor locations. Face coverings are required on motorcoach transportation and in the cruise terminal and may be required in ports of call based on local government requirements.
REQUIREMENTS FOR CRUISE PAGGENGERS VISITING CANADA / DEBARKATION TESTING
Guests should review and stay up to date with any requirements or restrictions that may be in place for travel to Canada; visit the Government of Canada’s website for information.
Please note, the Canadian government requires all passengers to take a COVID-19 test before disembarking a cruise ship in Canada. Canadian authorities are also currently requiring international travelers to download and register via the ArriveCAN mobile application, Canada’s entry requirements program that must be completed prior to entry into Canada. Requirements include downloading the ArriveCAN app, uploading proof of COVID-19 vaccination, citizenship documentation, trip details, and answering health-related questions.
