Previously NCL had planned to discontinue this testing for sailings beginning Jan. 17.

Any positive antigen test will be confirmed with a PCR test.

The testing is administered and paid for by the cruise line.  

Home testing also highly encouraged

In addition, NCL 'highly' recommends passengers self-test at home prior to departure.
