FOR 25 YEARS, Viking has had the highest
standards of health and cleanliness. 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 in the travel industry.
VIKING'S SAFETY-FIRST APPROACH:
PCR TESTING AND DEDICATED PCR
LABORATORIES – Viking is the first cruise line to
install full-scale PCR laboratories on all ocean and
expedition vessels. This means we can conduct quick,
non-invasive saliva PCR tests when necessary, testing
crew and guests in the privacy of their staterooms
and processing the results on board.
IMPROVED AIR PURIFICATION – All Viking ships
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, all staterooms on Viking expedition 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
and at embarkation. Temperatures can also be
checked using touchless thermometers and
automated thermal cameras.
CROWD-FREE CHECK-IN – To avoid a congested
embarkation, you will be assigned a boarding time
based on your flight arrival, with a touch-free online
check-in option available.
