Has anybody travelled recently to any of the Antilles islands? Have you been able to navigate through COVID-19 PCR test requirement? Many islands require PCR test within 5 to 7 days. It would be difficult to get a PCR result back in time based on a local turn around. Are USVI closing back down altogether?
 
Hello,
We are in the process of travelling to Turks and Caicos currently. We were supposed to leave on Sunday 8/23, but the storm caused Delta and American to cancel the flights. No flights resuming until this Saturday.

We did our PCR COVID test through Passport Health and received results in under 48 hours.

Mandatory COVID travel insurance was secured through Travelex, including a COVID coverage letter.

TCI has an online portal where everything must be submitted before travel is approved. We were all set to go, but then the storm cancelled flights, so we had to reschedule everything.

Now we are leaving on Saturday 8/29. Travelex moved our dates at no charge, and we booked another COVID test with Passport for tomorrow.

Fingers crossed everything goes smooth!
