In the last month or so, cruise operators have been dropping COVID-19 testing requirements. The last major cruise line who hadn't yet removed the requirement was Disney, but today Disney has announced the end of the testing requirement for select guests starting next month.
Disney Cruise Line did send out some incorrect emails to start with today, but they have since corrected them with the information that's on the "Know Before You Go" page.
Beginning September 23rd, 2022, for sailings on the Disney Dream, Disney Fantasy, Disney Wish and Disney Wonder, and beginning November 7th, 2022, for sailings on the Disney Magic, fully vaccinated Guests no longer need to take a pre-departure COVID-19 test. Guests who are NOT fully vaccinated must continue to test (at the expense of the guest) up to 3 days prior to sailing.
