Meliá Orlando Celebration recently launched a partnership with Surfacide, the global leader in UV technology. Surfacide’s UV disinfection robots will clean all 289 guestrooms and indoor public spaces; the robots create an infection prevention approach with hospital-grade UV technology that kills 99.99 percent of pathogens on hard surfaces and in the air.

 

“Keeping our guests safe and healthy is our first priority at Meliá Orlando Celebration,” said Antonio Baez, general manager, Meliá Orlando Celebration. “We have made some amazing progress in guest safety over the last 18 months with the Stay Safe with Melia program, opening of 10 new Stay Well suites and now the addition of Surfacide, giving our guests the utmost confidence in their vacation experience.”

 

Surfacide’s proprietary three-tower Helios System provides a chemical-free added layer of protection for hotel guests and staff. It is the only patented, UV-C disinfection solution to use three light-emitting robots to kill viruses and microorganisms on surfaces and in the air in as little as five minutes. The robots will be used after each guest checks out or after any members of the staff leave a room.

 

“We are excited to partner with Meliá Orlando Celebration and make our world-class technology accessible to their guests and staff,” said Gunner Lyslo, founder and CEO, Surfacide. “Surfacide is rooted in a decade of expertise in healthcare, and as we continue to navigate our new normal, we are proud to help bring peace of mind to those in the hospitality industry as well.”

 

The partnership is part of the hotel’s commitment to health and wellness, alongside its recently launched 10 Stay Well by Delos Suites.

High-Spirited Hong Kong: The Dynamic Hub Embraces Its Maritime History and Culture

It was known as the “Kai Tak heart attack” — the thrilling, terrifying final approach into Hong Kong’s Kai Tak Airport. Airliners were required to bank sharply at the last moment, dodging hills and apartment blocks to line up with a runway jutting out into Kowloon Bay. The airport is long gone, but international visitors are arriving at Kai Tak again, albeit more sedately. Their cruise ships dock smoothly at Kai Tak Cruise Terminal, a modern gateway designed by Sir Norman Foster.
