All crew members of Explorer Dream and the office staff in Taiwan will receive the AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine which makes Dream Cruises the first cruise company in Asia to roll out a comprehensive vaccination program. The program will deliver more than 700 vaccinations.
Mr Kent Zhu, the president of Genting Cruise Lines said: “Since the successful service resumption of Explorer Dream and World Dream in Taiwan and Singapore last year, both ships have enjoyed a stellar track record of zero COVID-19 cases, demonstrating the effectiveness of Genting Cruise Lines preventive measures.
“With the development and uptake of COVID-19 vaccines, we are confident that the cruise tourism industry will receive the much-needed boost on its road to recovery in the post-pandemic era.”
Dream Cruises has been one of the innovators of new cruise safety, having been the first cruise company to roll out a set of preventative measures and this proactive approach has been reflected in the success of its voyages since.
These measures include pre-embarkation health screenings, face mask and social distancing requirements, improved on-board cleaning and disinfecting and 100% fresh air ventilation in all cabins and public areas with an air change rate up to 15 times per hour.
