Grand Panorama Suite on Scenic Eclipse I (Scenic Group) (Press Release) May 7, 2026 - Scenic has released its most extensive ultra-luxury Discovery Yachts voyages collection to date, with the release of the 2028 to 2029 Worldwide Voyages and Land Journeys program. Spanning all seven continents, more than 100 countries, and 600 ports of call, the new season invites guests to journey from pole to pole, from historic coastlines and vibrant cultural capitals to remote polar regions and some of the world’s rarely visited unique destinations. A defining and highly anticipated moment in this collection is the inaugural season of Scenic Ikon, which will join Scenic Eclipse and Scenic Eclipse II from April 2028. Together, the three Scenic Discovery Yachts will offer guests an expanded choice of truly all-inclusive ultra-luxury ocean voyages, pairing innovative ship design with immersive discovery across some of the world’s most remarkable destinations. This 2028/29 Collection builds on Scenic’s philosophy of elevated inclusions across selected suite categories and special offers. Guests will enjoy included Scenic Discovery and Scenic Freechoice excursions as standard, while eligible Super Earlybird bookings will also receive an included helicopter flightseeing experience - taking Scenic’s all-inclusive exploration ethos beyond the coastline, for extraordinary perspectives of each destination. For guests booking the top suite categories, additional inclusions further personalise and elevate the journey, including those sailing to the Antarctic Peninsula, who receive a private jet upgrade from Buenos Aires to Ushuaia. Also, selected voyages in Europe and the Americas include private chauffeur airport transfers and a private excursion of the guest’s choice. A major highlight of the collection is the return of Scenic Eclipse II to the South Pacific Asia region, including Australia, the Kimberleys, and East Antarctica’s Ross Sea. The ship’s return follows the strong demand created by the two highly successful seasons in 2024 and 2025. This demonstrates both the region's exceptional appeal for Scenic’s ultra-luxury Discovery Yacht experiences, in some of the world’s most spectacular closer-to-home destinations. Interest remains very strong for Scenic Ikon's inaugural collection of ultra-luxury voyages, with several early departures already sold out across the Mediterranean, Aegean, Adriatic, and Antarctica programs. These are all generating significant excitement, while pre-registration interest for the Scenic Eclipse 2028/29 voyages has reached record levels. Early booking momentum for the Kimberley season is already building, following the sold-out 2025 program. Tom Batchelor, Vice President, Deployment, Product & Port Operations – Ocean said the new collection reflected Scenic’s continued leadership in ultra-luxury discovery cruising. “Scenic’s 2028/29 collection represents an extraordinary season for the brand, with three Scenic Discovery Yachts offering guests more choice, more destinations and more ways to experience the world in truly all-inclusive ultra-luxury. “The arrival of Scenic Ikon marks the next evolution of our Scenic Discovery Yacht fleet, while the return of Scenic Eclipse II to Australia, the Kimberley, Asia, the South Pacific and East Antarctica offers guests even more opportunities to explore both enduring favourites and exciting new frontiers.” New Expeditions Voyages & Land Journeys Brochure Launching alongside this collection is the new Expeditions Voyages & Land Journeys brochure, which can be viewed here, showcasing Scenic’s ultra-luxury cruises in Antarctica and the Arctic, complemented by specially designed land journey extensions across South America, Greenland, Iceland, and Northern Europe. Scenic Group is the only operator to design, build, own, and operate across its ocean cruising, river cruising, and land journey portfolio, making it uniquely positioned to deliver a truly seamless experience under one brand. This end-to-end expertise allows Scenic to meet the growing guest appetite for life-changing experiences and deeper destination immersion, taking travelers beyond the coastline to iconic landmarks further inland and across the world's most extraordinary oceans.
