I will be working with one of the booths at Gencon, and to do so I'm flying in from Canada.
Flights to and from Canada require a negative Covid Test to be obtained both ways, an Antigen test going into the US, and a PCR test to come back into Canada.
The former seems to be easily available, with dozens of pharmacies near me offering them at a cost effective and timely manner.
The latter is a bigger question. I know testing is available at the airport, but is noted by some travelers I know as being expensive and possibly requiring being at the airport much earlier than I'll be able to be there.
I'm assuming Indianapolis has a variety of pharmacies and other possible options for obtaining tests, but I thought that on top of Google'ing the matter, that I'd ask here, to see if anyone local has input on timely and cost effective testing options, or if any other international travelers had thoughts to share on the matter?
I am, of course, fully vaccinated (and will have been for 2 months when we hit the convention floor), and am doing my best to remain even safer than normal in the weeks leading up to the event. My main concern for now is making sure I can get home without issues. And yes, I'm aware that attending an event of this size, even masked and vaccinated, carries non-negligible risk. Setting aside the wisdom of the choice in attending at all, I'm just looking for options for traveler testing in the downtown Indianapolis area.
Thank you.
