Australia’s own adventure cruise company, Aurora Expeditions, has unveiled its updated Health & Safety Program in preparation for the resumption of expedition cruising. Every aspect of Aurora Expeditions’ Health & Safety program has been strengthened to protect against COVID-19 and to ensure the company is able to cruise in the safest, most enjoyable way possible for its guests.
Aurora Expeditions’ health & safety policy now includes mandatory vaccination prior to embarking on any of its voyages, with this policy applying to all guests, crew and Expedition Team members.
“Aurora Expeditions is excited about the world emerging from COVID-19 and is looking forward to the resumption of cruising and returning to doing what we do best – small ship expeditions – in our 30th year of operation,” said Monique Ponfoort, CEO of Aurora Expeditions.
“The health and safety of our guests, staff and crew remains our number one priority, and we are committed to providing the best opportunity for our guests to fully enjoy the small ship expedition experience offered with Aurora Expeditions.
“Our Health & Safety program has been strengthened and will be precisely followed, including the highest level of pre-cruising preventative measures, the capability for PCR testing on board if required, and a robust Response Plan and protocols onboard designed to bring peace of mind to all of our guests and crew.”
