Disney Cruise Line Pre-Sail Testing Service
Guests under the age of 5 must take a Pre Sail PCR test as a pre-requisite to be cleared to arrive at port on their sail date.
Guests that have just turned 5 are given a 35 day grace period to become fully vaccinated to sail. If your child falls within this grace period and are not fully vaccinated, they must take a Pre Sail PCR test to be cleared to arrive at port on their sail date. If the child is outside the 35 day grace period window, the child MUST be fully vaccinated to sail.
Inspire’s PCR Home Test Kit needs to be administered 3 days prior to your cruise and mailed back on the same date that the test was taken. To correctly calculate your day, your sail date counts as day zero.
Once the test sample reaches the lab it takes about a day to process the tests to receive results.
