Mobile-first entertainment marketplace Headout has launched the Safe Experience badge verifying that attractions have adhered to WHO safety standards, in a bid to build trust and ensure traveller wellbeing.
This comes as the Covid-19 pandemic has triggered a seismic shift in travellers’ demands, with higher hygiene standards, touchless services, and enhanced safety protocols topping the wishlist of travellers.
Headout has awarded the Safe Badge to more than 1,900 experiences across 25 countries, including several in the Asia-Pacific region such as Universal Studios Singapore, Siam Park City in Bangkok, Sky 100 Hong Kong Observation Deck, BridgeClimb Sydney, Melbourne Zoo, Phuket Simon Cabaret, and RamaYana Water Park in Pattaya.
Safe Experiences on Headout are displayed to users on a real-time basis. “Today, safety and trust are the need of the hour to get back to the world as we knew it. With Safe Experiences, we have pioneered a massive data project to ensure our users get accurate and updated information on safety measures around the world,” said Varun Khona, CEO and co-founder of Headout.
Before accrediting the Safe Badge, Headout approbates five safety protocols that ensure traveller safety from multiple touchpoints. These include contactless entry and exit, minimal touch services and the mandate of online tickets; mandatory mask-wearing, temperature checks, and social distancing measures; capacity restrictions and time-slotted entry; sanitation, disinfection, and deep cleaning practices on-site, including sanitisation of audio guides and transfer vehicles; as well as staff trained as per WHO guidelines.
