Vi præsenterer Nye hygiejne- og serviceprotokoller for at sikre alles velbefindende

Chicago, June 5, 2020 – Seadog by Hornblower will be restarting its Chicago operations on Friday, June 12, offering a choice of sightseeing cruises and thrilling boat rides in accordance with Governor Pritzker’s phased reopening plan. With 100 percent outdoor seating, the company’s fleet of Seadog vessels can easily be arranged for social distancing with reduced capacity. Rides last between 30-75 minutes and all occur outside in the fresh air, so there is more than enough room on board for everyone to stay safely apart.

For at give tryghed i det nuværende pandemiske miljø har Hornblower udvidet sit branchedefinerende SafeCruise af Hornblower program, der bygger på de allerede strenge sanitetsprocesser, til at inkorporere yderligere sundhedsorienterede foranstaltninger for at beskytte mod spredning af COVID-19 og andre vira.

Explaining the company’s preparations for welcoming guests back on board, Hornblower Regional Vice President for the Midwest, Dan Russell 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 thrilling Seadog ride, we are adapting our amazing experiences to reflect the need for social distance, alongside elevated health and hygiene practices.”

Hornblower har gennemgået alle aspekter af gæsteoplevelsen og tager alle nødvendige skridt for at sikre, at alle om bord har det godt. Disse omfatter, men er ikke begrænset til, følgende:

  • Obligatorisk daglig sundhedsscreening af besætningsmedlemmer og brug af passende personlige værnemidler
  • Ændring af procedurerne for boarding og billettering for at give mulighed for social afstand og berøringsfri adgang
  • Krav om, at gæsterne skal bære ansigtsmasker under sejladsen, undtagen når de spiser og drikker
  • Reducing the number of guests on board, and adapting all seating to allow for a minimum 6-foot distance between guests while they cruise
  • Indførelse af forbedrede hygiejne- og desinfektionsprocedurer med hånddesinfektionsstationer overalt
