Swan Hellenic has announced that it has introduced Covid-19 vaccination as a pre-boarding medical requirement for all crew and staff. The vaccination process will take place at recruitment centers or in the crew members' home countries, in accordance with current local guidelines and approved medical protocols.
This decisive action to protect staff and passengers on the iconic pioneer of cultural expedition cruises' new ships completes an industry-leading package of health measures to ensure a safe environment on board.
Swan Hellenic's three new ships are being built using the most advanced hygiene technology and to the highest standards, in consultation with Vikand, world-leading experts in public health and onboard healthcare. Furthermore, all Swan Hellenic personnel are trained in the application of all procedures and practices specified by industry standards and required by the authorities at the time of departure, including regular pre-boarding and onboard testing, as well as rigorous disinfection of the ships' public areas, cabins, technical areas, and crew and staff accommodations.
For added peace of mind in these uncertain times, Swan Hellenic customers can book with complete confidence, knowing they are protected by a no-quibble cancellation policy that allows cancellation up to 30 days before departure, providing a future cruise credit valid for 2 years.
Swan Hellenic's CEO, Andrea Zito, explained: “We are fully committed to the health and well-being of our customers and crews, ensuring they can relax and focus entirely on the enriching opportunities we offer to see what others don't.”.
