C London Travel is committed to ensuring the health and well-being of our employees and their families as well as our customers and guests. Therefore, we have developed a COVID-19 Exposure Prevention, Preparedness, and Response Plan to be implemented throughout the Company and at all of our facilities.
Special Cleaning and Sanitizing Procedures
In addition to normal cleaning procedures, all frequent touch points within the Motorcoach have been wiped down with a disinfectant cleanser. Between each charter, as well as nightly on multi-day shuttles, an electrostatic Sprayer will be used on the Motorcoach which allows the disinfectant to get into every crevice.
Special Steps Taken While a Move is Underway
Operators will routinely use a disinfectant cleaner to wipe down high touch areas. Antibacterial hand sanitizers have been installed on the Motorcoach entry area, and use is encouraged. The front row (4 seats) has been designated as “out of service” to allow for social distancing between the group and the operator.
Personal Protective Equipment
The purpose of personal protective equipment is primarily to protect your fellow passengers. When worn by all participants, the potential for spread of COVID, or other diseases, is greatly diminished. As such, all passengers are strongly recommended to wear face coverings while boarding and exiting the vehicle, when they may be in closer contact with each other, as well as while on the motorcoach, in other group situations, or anywhere social distancing cannot be maintained.
For those traveling with C London Travel, face coverings are required to be worn at all times the group is assembled whether on the motorcoach or at group events.
Your Operator and Your Motorcoach
Operators will wear face coverings while loading and unloading the motorcoach, as well as at any time the driver is interacting directly with customers or employees. Our vehicles are designed to fully exchange the air every 5 minutes of operation. Additionally, the HVAC system is designed to cause the air movement to be directed from the passenger level to the floor, where it is gathered by return and evacuation ducting.
Everyone’s Responsibilities
Any passenger or employee exhibiting symptoms of COVID-19 should elect to stay at home in the interest of protecting everyone. Should someone become ill on a trip, they should anticipate the need for immediate quarantine to avoid passing the disease to others. No one exhibiting symptoms will be allowed to board the bus at any time.
For those travelling on our retail offerings, you will unfortunately not be able to continue on your trip and will need to seek medical attention.
