Hi. We will be driving to the port from the Chicago area. We plan to spend a couple of days in New York before the cruise to catch some show. Do any locals have suggestions for where we can get the pre-boarding covid test? We are staying in Manhattan and neither CVS nor Walgreens in that area seem to offer the antigen test. We're a bit concerned about taking a PCR test and not having the results in time. Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks

You might want to look into a virtual testing company. I believe eMed and OnPoint have been mentioned here on the boards. Also Safe Passage offers virtual testing. You can purchase their tests and test virtually.

If you can not find a testing option before sailing. Disney is still offering testing at the port as a fall back.

There are pop-up tents on almost every corner in midtown Manhattan lately. I think it's free if you have health insurance.
If you're looking for a more established place try here:

I think it's about a mile or so east of the port.

Check in Time!

I started at midnight and it took an hour but finally completed our online check in and got boarding group 6 with an 11:30am-11:45am port arrival time. We were hoping for closer to 11:00am but not to bad.

Looking at postings online so far it is looking like those who got their arrival times and boarding group numbers have their times as the following.

Port Arrival Time / Boarding Group

Arrival time 11:00am / Boarding groups 2 & 3
Arrival time 11:15am / Boarding groups 4 & 5
Arrival time 11:30am / Boarding groups 6 & 7
Arrival time 11:45am / Boarding groups 8 & 9
Arrival time - Noon - / Boarding groups 10 & 11

Not sure why my earlier comments haven’t shown up here, so I’ll post it again (sorry if they show up later). Completed check-in in about 5 minutes or so. Had all of my pics and info ready to go. Got a PAT of 11:00am and boarding group 2. Expected way more trouble/delay, so was pleasantly surprised to get through it so quickly. Thanks to @Doingitagain for the tips.

Wow, wish my check-in went as smoothly. Had to close and restart so many times just to finish I lost track. I had everything ready just had to fight with the website.

Apparently the DIS is having issues with posts disappearing. They started a thread on the Technical Board about it.
