Which test to take before boarding cruise?

I’m a little confused with regards to testing prior to getting on the Disney dream.

2 x adults and 3 x under 12s so not vaccinated.

I have booked 2 x adults a supervised antigen test via zoom (as permitted to enter the US) and 3 x kids PCR home kits.

I’ve just read the Disney site and it says it doesn’t permit antigen? Only NAAT but I don’t know what the difference is! Ours are the rapid antigen ones but we are supervised whilst doing it? Is this ok?!

So after January over 5s have to be vaccinated to go on a Disney cruise after January so I'm assuming you are travelling before then. The website says "The test should be a NAAT test, rapid PCR test or lab-based PCR test" so I think the PCR home kit is fine as its going to a lab. You then get retested at the port.

I would however check as I think all the pre departure tests are needed to be supervised aren't they so the kids ones need to be Zoom too
