Says Saga.
Since loads of you are old gits just thought I warn you.
Saga requires all cruise passengers to have coronavirus vaccine | Travel & leisure | The Guardian
Saga has become the first UK tour operator to tell cruise and holiday customers that they must be vaccinated to travel with them this summer.
The over-50s travel firm, which has reported a surge in bookings since the vaccination programme was announced, is taking reservations on condition that customers are fully inoculated, with two shots where necessary, at least 14 days before departure. Passengers will also need to take a Covid test at the departure terminal.
Saga has deferred the start date for its entire holiday programme of hotel stays, escorted tours and cruises until 1 May, with the first sea cruise departing on 4 May, which the company said should be ample time for its customers to receive their jabs.
The firm implemented the rules after polling 2,000 of its customers, with an overwhelming majority in favour of allowing only vaccinated passengers to travel.
A spokesperson said: “The health and safety of our customers has always been our number one priority at Saga, so we have taken the decision to require everyone travelling with us to be fully vaccinated against Covid-19.
“Our customers want the reassurance of the vaccine and to know others travelling with them will be vaccinated too.”
