In Campania, there are currently no signs of warning about Coronavirus [COVID – 19].
The situation is analogous in the whole Campania, while in the Campania region the phenomenon is constantly monitored and, as of today, does not spark any particular worries.
That being said, the Campania is naturally not classified as an area at risk.
Local sanitary entities are constantly monitoring the situation and reporting and providing data to the authorities in charge.
Italy has one of the most advanced sanitary systems in the world, and the Coronavirus issue has been faced with great determination by the Government, using all available resources, and complying with WHO’s recommendations. Centralized coordination of operations has been entrusted to the Civil Protection department, an entity that’s been widely regarded as one of the excellences on an international level.
What more have you done to face this emergency?
In Campania, maximum attention aimed to guarantee the highest standards of safety for our Guests has been always paid, above and beyond lawful regulations.
Furthermore, to ensure our Guests experience a serene vacation in this period, the great majority of Hotels, accommodations, shops and restaurants have been reinforcing their operations of sanitation and have been carrying out such procedures on food and beverage. Again, above and beyond current HACCP regulations in regard to food and beverage handling.
Are you ready for the 2020 season?
Absolutely ready, nothing has stopped. As usual, winter months are the occasion to intervene with works on accommodations and restaurants, to select new staff and to train.
In 2020, you’ll find the first results of a virtuous path leading to the development of a much more sustainable destination, starting with the ban – throughout the whole Coast – of disposable, non-biodegradable products on beaches and beach clubs. This is a Regional law [#25 December 4th, 2019] to which many towns of the Campania had already been abiding through regulations of their own administrations.
With the final aim of becoming a Plastic-free destination, many initiatives are being carried out to sensitize residents and Guests of the Amalfi Coast towards the use of BPA-free water bottles, which have also been distributed to all students from October 2019. Towns of the Campania rank among the highest in the Campania Region and the whole Country for recycling household waste.
Are ports, airports and train stations open?
Of course, they are!
Are cultural landmarks, parks, hikes and paths in the Campania open?
Absolutely!
Do public and private transportation work?
Naturally, and its schedules have not been subject to any variation. What’s more, both public and private transportation operators in the Campania have reinforced their operations of sanitations in their vehicles, thus guaranteeing further elements of safety for their customers.
What are the rules concerning the cancellation of my vacation?
The Campania is not among the areas at risk of Coronavirus, thus no rules for Force Majeure Causes apply.
Those who have booked or are in the process of booking their stay should refer to the type of rate offered directly or through third-party intermediaries – both online and traditional – which all have different cancellation policies.
In case of necessity, to whom can, and should I address?
If you’re in the situation of suspecting of having something more complicated that a simple flu, please follow the indications of the sanitary authorities, the Government and the Campania Region.
You’ll find all the assistance you need in the Campania, ranging from information to medical personnel taking charge of any situation.
