Before boarding a Carnival cruise, it is important to be aware of the vaccination requirements. Currently, all guests 12 years of age and older must be fully vaccinated against COVID-19 in order to sail. This means that you must have received both doses of a two-dose vaccine, such as Pfizer or Moderna, or one dose of a single-dose vaccine, such as Johnson & Johnson.
There are a few exceptions to this requirement. Children under the age of 12 are not required to be vaccinated, but they must be accompanied by a fully vaccinated adult. Guests who have a medical condition that prevents them from being vaccinated may be able to obtain a medical exemption. To request a medical exemption, you must submit a completed medical exemption form to Carnival at least 30 days prior to your sailing date.
