VAX & Passports Guidance

If the medical industrial complex invents new VAX requirements prior to cruise, some may choose not to go. Jan 1, 2023 Holland updates their VAX protocols for cruises. I don’t mind clearing a VAX test if required but won’t take the jab.

Passports not required. However, in the event of a medical emergency that requires going to land in Canada a passport would be needed. Yeamans are bringing passports.
