I am going aswell and reading up on the requirements to enter the USA. I fly out on Monday the 30th, anyone know where I can get a ‘day before’ antigen etc test in Greenock/Glasgow area on a Sunday?

Cheers

Mate been over the States in the last month. You can get an antigen test deliver to your home a few days before. Take the test at home and send photo to the Provider. They normally send back certificate within hour. Just check right test for entry to USA and also what their response is on a Sunday.

Randox, Braehead.

Or Boots, Braehead - you don't need a PCR Test.

There is also talk of this requirement being lifted on 18 April, as that is what all the American airlines have requested. Whether Sleepy Joe agrees or not remains to be seen . . .

What’s the latest on entry requirements?

 

[jones65]

I’m about to cancel a couple of PH room reservations for the thurs-sunday. Made the booking over a year ago and we can no longer make it.

I don’t even know if the reservations are transferrable but I assume they are.

Rates are $80-$120-$120 on the reservation. One room king bed, one room 2 queen beds.

I would check here as it should be the most up to date source of information.

COVID-19 and Travel

CDC travel recommendations during the COVID-19 pandemic.

I'd be surprised if they're transferable. Usually original booker has to be present.

I’m going to New York week before Vegas and they’ve dropped a few restrictions today. Going to see The Who and no longer need to provide proof of vaccine to attend.
Fingers crossed more restrictions get lifted.

NARSA President is on today's Heart and Hand daily update talking a bit about the event.

 

[LadyLaudrup]

Does anyone have any idea how many Bears will attend this? First time at NARSA so unsure what to expect. (Apart from a lot of bevvy)

Over 2,000. The biggest there's been.

No way! That’s some sash bash. Really looking forward to it.

You will have a great time. The last one was awesome, and expecting this one to be even better.

It's going to be quite the few days.

Haha. I get home from Sevilla and need to go next morning at 7am for mine.

 

[Masonboyne]

Vegas is brilliant, you’ll love it.

Parts of NARSA are excellent. You can dip in and out as you see fit.

Ive never done a Vegas one, but really, they should just host it there every year. I’d imagine it’s absolutely perfect for it.

What hotel did they go for?

Planet Hollywood

 

[rfcjonnya]

Haha. I get home from Sevilla and need to go next morning at 7am for mine.

You are either staying really long in Seville or going to Vegas really early

 

[Plantation pioneer]

Nah mate. I’m doing 8 nights in New York before heading to vegas.

 

[Captain_Buns]

Train up. A wee hauf botto. Singing songs of victory!

 

[helicopter-sunday]

[Scott1975]

Randox, Braehead.

Or Boots, Braehead - you don't need a PCR Test.

Got ours yesterday at Randox, Howard Street, 35 quid each, and results within 30 minutes, although they did say "allow an hour", and now back in Florida!

What type of test do you need now for usa ? i’m going to narsa also

 

[Crouchy]

DocHQ is a cheap online test.

You won’t fail either (apparently).

Results back in 15 mins.

 

[Bearsden Bear]

Antigen suffices.

 

[Mview83]

Do we think getting to Seville has affected numbers travelling for this?

 

[hhss]

Do we think getting to Seville has affected numbers travelling for this?

Not noticeably, but it has stopped a few.

 

[Toproadloyal]

I’m sure it’s a PCR, 24 hours before your flight departure which is abit tight.

 

[wsb&warmy]

Doesn't need to be 24 hours, just anytime the day before you fly.

 

[Captain_Buns]

Same as not winning the league.
