Creator's Key Takeaways

i am on board the viking star with colleagues we are here to complete the work needed to have the viking fleet return to safe sailing

we have implemented the very highest standards of precautions on border ships to ensure that travel with viking is as safe as it can be in 2021

the key to making ships safe for the future lies in testing in the testing program that we have developed which far exceeds the requirements of various governments around the world

our modeling shows that most of us would be better off being on board a ship under our protocols than going about our daily lives at home
