Testing Timing West Coast - Help Please - 11/23/2020 03:34 PM
Hi Everyone:
My apologies in advance regarding my questions, but I am finding the process a little stressful given the travel requirements and timing. Especially as I have just read a trip report stating the traveler did not receive the go ahead until hours before departing and I hope to avoid that situation. I do not want to show up at the airport and be denied checking in.
We depart Orange Country, CA on December 5 at 5:10 pm with 2 stops, SLC and ATL We arrive in SXM at 2:42 pm on Dec 6.
I have arranged for COVID PCR tests for Dec 3 at 10:00 am, and the lab guarantees results in 24 hours. Do I trust the guarantee?
My questions are:
1. Is this timeframe doable for pre-approval prior to travel Saturday afternoon?
2. Should I attempt to reschedule our tests for Dec 2 to buy a little time?
Thank you for any advice.
