At the start of this year, the Canadian Government implemented a new protocol in relation to air travelers arriving into Canada. This protocol will require all passengers arriving by air, including on-signing crewmembers, to provide a negative COVID-19 test result. This test must be taken within the preceding 72 hours of the flight that will arrive the traveler(s) into Canada. This regulation went into effect on January 7, 2021.

Off signers will be required to travel directly from vessel to either airport or hotel to await earliest flight out of Vancouver.
