HEALTH & SAFETY AT SEA Ocean cruising’s most comprehensive health and safety program FOR MORE THAN 24 YEARS, Viking has had the highest standards of health and cleanliness, and our new, updated protocol enhancements make travelling with Viking even safer. Developed in coordination with an international team of scientific and medical advisors, the Viking Health & Safety Program is one of the most well-researched and comprehensive COVID-19 prevention and mitigation plans in the travel industry. VIKING’S SAFETY-FIRST APPROACH: PCR testing and dedicated PCR laboratories — As the first cruise line to install a full-scale PCR laboratory at sea, Viking has now extended this to every one of its ocean vessels. This means we can conduct quick, non-invasive saliva PCR tests every day if necessary, testing crew and guests in the privacy of their staterooms and processing the results on board. Everyone will be tested prior to embarkation, and local partners — including motor coach drivers and tour guides — will be tested before any tours. Contact tracing devices — All guests receive asmall contact tracing device to wear around their neck or keep in their pocket. Improved air purification — All Viking ships now feature short-wavelength ultraviolet (UV-C) lights and new high-density filters that sanitise the air and kill 99.99% of all airborne bacteria and viruses. Plus, enjoy fresh air in your stateroom, knowing that all staterooms on Viking ocean ships feature independent air handling units that do not share air with other areas of the ship. Health checks — All guests will complete a one- minute digital Health Questionnaire developed by scientific and medical advisors prior to travel, at embarkation and every day of their cruise itinerary. Temperatures will also be checked regularly using touchless thermometers and automated thermal cameras. For complete itinerary details and videos, visit viking.com/oceans
