BRIAN FERDINAND, TRAVEL GURU, HIGHLIGHTS HOW CORPORATE HOUSING CAN PROTECT TRAVELERS DURING THE PANDEMIC

Since the Great Lockdown of Spring 2020, many people have been gun-shy about traveling, and you may fall under this category. Still, you’ve decided that you will indeed keep traveling during the pandemic, as you have important business to take care of all over the country. Of course, you don’t want to catch the coronavirus in the process. So, what exactly should you do? Travel afficionado Brian Ferdinand in a recently released article explained how booking corporate housing units when traveling to distant cities can reduce your chances of contracting COVID-19.

CORPORATE HOUSING DURING THE PANDEMIC

Brian Ferdinand, the managing partner of SoBeNY, explains in the article that the managers and owners of reputable luxury corporate housing units are adapting to our current pandemic-riddled world in several ways. For starters, corporate housing firms are employing robust teams of cleaning professionals who understand the most recent COVID-19 precautions. These personnel are abiding by stringent disinfecting protocols, and this is key because disinfecting is not the same thing as simply cleaning. Rather, disinfecting involves using products approved by the Environmental Protection Agency to remove viruses from touch surfaces.

Corporate housing firms are also opening windows and balcony doors to promote air circulation. This can help to enhance the quality of their units’ indoor air and possibly dissipate any virus particles remaining in it.

Professional cleaning personnel at high-quality corporate housing firms are also performing deep cleanings of their residential refrigerators as well as areas used for food prep. Again, this step can further help to mitigate the spread of the novel coronavirus.

ADDITIONAL CORPORATE HOUSING SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS

In addition to performing detailed cleaning, corporate housing firms offer the benefit of promoting social distancing more easily than hotels can. That’s because when you book a corporate housing unit, you will simply meet with the company’s greeter, then enter your apartment. You don’t have to wait in a hotel lobby or wade through a large number of fellow guests in other common areas, such as hotel restaurants.

Also, because corporate housing units are typically rented for several weeks on end, the turnover in this setting is far lower than it is at a hotel. Thus, the overall accumulation of the coronavirus is lessened in a corporate housing unit, thus reducing your exposure to this pathogen. All in all, corporate housing units are generally one of the the safest options for business travelers concerned about their health and wellbeing in the months ahead.
