Yes, in a perfect world we would take the test and send it UPS or Fedex next day air to the lab. That would be days 1 and 2, hopefully they receive it and process the test, days 2,3,4 and we would get the results before day 5.
believe me, I am not looking forward to juggling this and the stress it will involve. But it is our honeymoon, our wedding reception was cancelled, her grandma passed away from COVID, work has been crazy and we are still planning on going on this trip if we can.

Hey Jase, I'm booked for that trip as well!Similar story for me. I'm now scheduled for the 8/29 trip. I'll have my fingers crossed.
