Are Skippers/Crew vaccinated?
The decision for a person to take the vaccination is an individual’s choice. It would not be appropriate for us to share the medical records of any crew member therefore we will be unable to confirm the vaccination status of any of our crew globally. However, all crew will be tested prior to a charter to ensure the skipper/cook are negative at the beginning of the charter.
Where can I find Covid-19 tests whilst on holiday?
We have put together Covid-19 entry requirements for each of our destinations, which includes information on suggested Covid-19 testing sites, where you can get tested if you are experiencing symptoms and for your journey back to your home country.
How to get a Covid Test for my holiday?
We advise checking with your airline what tests are required before departing to your destination and on return to your home country. Your airline will recommend adequate test providers to go with, and will often include a discount code too.
Do I need to be vaccinated to travel?
It depends on the destination you are travelling to. Some countries do not require a vaccination, however unvaccinated travellers often have to provide proof of a negative PCR test. We have put together Covid-19 entry requirements for each of our destinations, however we advise checking with your airline on entry requirements (for differing vaccination statuses) for travel to your chosen destination and re-entry to home country.
