Traveling in the Caribbean: Tighter rules, changing outlook

As the Delta variant rises, we're seeing a lot of changes to entry protocols throughout the Caribbean Just in the past week, several countries have tightened their entry requirements, from requiring Covid tests for vaccinated travelers to mandating that all guests be fully vaxxed.

A rise in Covid cases is, naturally, driving the trend. And who better to talk about traveling in the Caribbean now than three veteran, Caribbean-travel journalists: Travel Weekly's contributing editor for the Caribbean Gay Nagle Myers, Travel Pulse managing editor (and Caribbean editor) Brian Major and writer and "Carivangelist" Sarah Greaves-Gabbadon, aka JetSetSarah.

We're also talking a lot about traveler expectations and Brian, Sarah and Gay's travel experiences on land and sea. Join us on an informative, and fun, journey to the Caribbean. And for more on this particular subject, subscribe to Sarah and Brian's new podcast, Complete Caribbean.
