• If you are still a little confused, here are 5
  reasons why a cruise holiday is a safe and the
  best option for you -
• Sail with social distancing
• The boarding is done on designated time slots to
  reduce the crowd and many reputed cruise liners
  even offer additional waiting areas onboard to
  help you follow the social distancing rules.
  Along with safety, you can even enjoy lesser
  queues at the restaurants and other entertainment
  facilities onboard. You can even find markings on
  the floor of the cruise indicating the distance
  to be maintained between 2 people in queues and
  many other such precautionary guidelines to help
  you and others have a safe and a secured trip.

• Mandatory fit-to-travel certificate
• If you or any of the passengers accompanying you
  is above the age of 70, be sure to carry a
  fit-to-travel certificate for the boarding
  process. You can easily get this certificate from
  one ofthe many healthcare facilities found near
  you. However, do keep in mind that the
  fit-to-travel certificate has to be no older than
  72 hours before the cruises scheduled departure
  time and needs to be taken from a healthcare
  facility recognised by the government of India.
  Do note that this is not required for people
  below the age of 70.

• Thorough sanitization process
• Cruises are thoroughly sanitized before the
  boarding process starts and are cleaned at
  regular intervals during the journey. You can
  even find sanitizer dispensers at the public
  areas onboard and in your rooms. Common
  touchpoints like handrails and door knobs are
  cleaned twice a day with hospital grade
  disinfectants while the food pavilions are
  cleansed thrice daily. Since the public areas can
  experience a lot of crowd even at half of the
  carriers capacity, the common areas undergo a
  2-tier cleaning process that includes cleansing,
  fogging, and wiping.

• Safety protocols for the crew
• To ensure that you have a safe trip, the crew
  members onboard a premium cruise liner undergo
  temperature screening at regular intervals and
  are required to wear face masks and gloves when
  on duty. They are even instructed to help you do
  the boarding process without any contact and
  provide you with a set of all the safety
  essentials like a face mask, face shield, a pair
  of gloves and even sanitizer pouches when you
  get onboard

• 24x7 medical assistance
• Many reputed cruises have a fully functional
  medical centre present onboard. These medical
  facilities are WHO-compliant and are operational
  round the clock to help you with any unfortunate
  medical emergency that you might face during the
  trip. Even consultation and isolation services
  are provided if required.
