引入新的卫生和服务协议，确保每个人的福祉
Newport Beach, May 29, 2020 – Hornblower Cruises and Events will be restarting its Newport Beach operations on Friday, June 5, offering a limited choice of seated public and group dining cruises in accordance with Governor Newsom’s phased reopening plan. 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. Combined with reduced guest capacity and changes to seating layout, guests can easily maintain the minimum 6-foot distance. 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.
“We welcome the opportunity to restart, and are well prepared to welcome our guests back on board,”
said Kevin Lorton, Hornblower’s Regional Vice President for Southern California. “At Hornblower, 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
- 修改登机和购票程序，以实现社会疏导和无接触进入。
- 要求客人在巡航时戴上口罩，但吃饭和喝水时除外。
- Reducing the number of guests on board, and adapting table spacing to allow for a minimum 6-foot distance between guests while they dine
- 实施强化的卫生和消毒程序，在各处设置洗手台
Newport Beach Cruise Experiences Resuming on June 5
Hornblower will be offering brunch and dinner cruises featuring delicious cuisine alongside a sophisticated selection of award-winning wines, craft beers and specialty cocktails. To reflect current requirements as set out by Orange County, some of the usual elements like entertainment, dancing and a walk-up bar service won’t be permitted. Cruise prices start from $82* for brunch or $105* for dinner (prices per person, excl. fees & taxes). For private groups, Hornblower Private Yachts also operates a choice of luxurious private charter experiences.
Newport Beach will be the company’s second Californian port to reopen, joining San Diego which resumes operations on May 30. For the time being, Hornblower will be offering a choice of dining cruises only and plans to resume its full range of experiences such as cocktail cruises and special events when current restrictions are lifted.
