Your enjoyment has always been our top priority. More than ever, this means feeling completely safe on board. In order to guarantee your health and safety during this challenging period, we have developed a new concept – and have tested the measures involved over the past few months. The name speaks for itself: Safety first. The plan was developed by the newly formed A-ROSA Care Team. We modified and built upon our already excellent hygiene and safety standards. Furthermore, we are in constant contact with the relevant port and health authorities, who keep us informed of the very latest developments. As a result, we can respond at an early stage and develop alternative route plans. And to give you peace of mind when booking, you can amend your reservation up to 30 days before departure with A-ROSA Premium all inclusive. In addition, the travel cancellation insurance covers COVID-19 infection. Safety first: key information for your trip. • Wherever possible, we will devise alternative routes to make sure that trips go ahead. • There is a minimum risk of quarantine thanks to alternative routes that do not include stops in high-risk areas. (Outward/return travel via high-risk areas is classed as transit and does not result in a quarantine obligation.) • If necessary, trips will only include individual onshore excursions or will take place completely on the water (with no stops). In this case, an onboard speaker, for example, will keep guests entertained. • Wherever possible, highlights in high-risk areas will be shown by means of panoramic ship tours or coach excursions. • Excursions will be held in smaller groups, with masks mandatory in coaches. • A-ROSA ships are exempt from accommodation bans. Risk-free booking. • With A-ROSA Premium all inclusive, bookings can be amended free of charge up to 30 days before departure. • The insurance policy of our partner company HanseMerkur covers COVID-19 infection. • For even more peace of mind, there is the option of the new A-ROSA Coronavirus Insurance (from €13 per person via travel agencies or the A-ROSA Service Center). • Amendments can be made free of charge in the event of a positive coronavirus test up to 30 days before departure. Hygiene measures on board. • There will be fewer guests on board. • A minimum distance of 1.5 metres to other people applies throughout the ship. • For your safety, the A-ROSA crew will be wearing face coverings at all times. We kindly ask you to also wear a face covering when moving around the ship. Wearing a mask is not required in your cabin, in the restaurant, in the bar, on the sun deck, during wellness treatments and when using exercise facilities. • Guests’ temperatures will be taken when they board the vessel; furthermore, a ‘fitness to travel’ declaration has to be submitted. • Disinfectant will be available throughout the ship. • The A-ROSA Care Team and Hygiene Managers will ensure compliance with the hygiene standards. • Depending on the ship’s occupancy level, meals will be served in two time slots. • There will be a set seating plan for lunch and dinner. 6 7 PREMIUM ALL INCLUSIVE PREMIUM ALL INCLUSIVE OUR PREMIUM ALL INCLUSIVE RATE With our all-round carefree Premium all inclusive rate, you do not have to worry about anything.

Unlike ocean-going ships, we generally do not use heavy fuel oil; instead, our vessels run on the same low-sulphur diesel as cars or lorries. And even here, fuel consumption is low, as we only use small ships with approximately 200 passengers on board. As demonstrated by a recent study conducted by the transport association Pro-Rail Alliance, we are even more sustainable than trains when it comes to CO2 emissions. Nonetheless, we are still striving to reduce fuel consumption further and incorporate alternative propulsion systems within our fleet. Our new E-Motion vessel, which will embark on its maiden voyage in 2022, is leading the way (turn to pages 98–101 to find out more). In addition, we are pursuing sustainability targets in areas such as refuse, waste water and tourism. Our specific measures are outlined below. HOW WE ARE GOING GREEN Reduced emissions Responsible tourism • We only use low-sulphur diesel • Walking tours, cycling tours, excursions • All the vessels in our fleet are fitted with on electric buses and similar eco-friendly an onshore power supply. This means that alternatives our ships use onshore electricity wherever • The ingredients used in the ship’s kitchen possible whilst moored are often bought at local markets • Our long-term goal is to install alternative propulsion systems on our ships Waste avoidance and correct disposal Waste water treatment • Bioplastic straws and bamboo cocktail sticks • We only use washable towels, with no un- • Waste water is treated using certified necessary washing systems, thus protecting rivers from • Refillable soap dispensers contamination • Water bottles that can be refilled at • The resulting sewage sludge is disposed of designated dispensers.

Since its first appearance in 1989, the Guidebook has been revised frequently to reflect changes occurring at the IAEA, within the United States Support Program to IAEA Safeguards (USSP), and in Vienna. The 2018 Edition reflects these changes at the time of publication. Nevertheless, IAEA salaries, allowances, and other benefits change, as do telephone numbers, addresses, and websites. Currency exchange rates, prices, and store hours in Vienna inevitably fluctuate. We regret any inconvenience this may cause our readers. The 2018 Edition of the Guidebook was prepared by the International Safeguards Project Office (ISPO) under the auspices of the USSP and was published by Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL).
