Introducing New Hygiene and Service Protocols to Ensure the Wellbeing of Everyone

Boston., June 22, 2020 – Hornblower Cruises and Events will be restarting its Boston operation on Friday, June 26, offering a selection of dining cruise experiences. With guest spaces spread over several levels, the company’s fleet of luxurious vessels offer expansive decks inside and out, providing plentiful space and fresh air. There is more than enough room on board for everyone to stay safely apart.

To provide reassurance in the current pandemic environment, Hornblower has expanded its industry defining SafeCruise by Hornblower program, building on already stringent sanitation processes, to incorporate further health-driven measures to guard against the spread of COVID-19 and other viruses.

Explaining the company’s preparations for welcoming guests back on board, Hornblower General Manager for Boston, Kelley Yelle said: “We are proud of our excellent safety and sanitation track record and always operate and maintain a rigorous process around cleanliness and hygiene. So, while our guests can still expect the same high standards and welcoming service, we are adapting our amazing experiences to reflect the need for social distance, alongside elevated health and hygiene practices.”

Hornblower has reviewed every aspect of the guest experience journey and is taking all steps necessary to ensure the wellbeing of everyone on board. These include, but are not limited to:

  • Mandatory daily crew member health screening, and wearing of appropriate PPE
  • مراجعة إجراءات الصعود إلى الطائرة وإصدار التذاكر للسماح بالتباعد الاجتماعي والدخول بدون لمس
  • Requiring guests to wear face masks while cruising, except while sitting at their tables
  • Adapting all seating and table spacing to allow for a minimum 6-foot distance between guests while they dine
  • تنفيذ إجراءات الصرف الصحي والتطهير المحسنة ، مع توفر محطات تعقيم اليدين في جميع أنحاء
