Scenic and Emerald have launched a summer sale covering selected river cruises and yacht voyages in 2026 and 2027. The two brands are advertising savings of up to 40% on eligible departures booked from July 20 through Aug. 3, 2026. The promotion includes selected Scenic river cruises and Scenic Eclipse yacht voyages. It also covers certain Emerald river cruises and luxury-yacht sailings.

Two new Seychelles and Indian Ocean voyages aboard the new Emerald Kaia is included in this promotion. The 13-day itineraries cruise between Mahé and Mombasa on Nov. 17 and Nov. 29, 2026. The itinerary includes La Digue, Praslin, Farquhar Atoll, Aldabra Atoll, Kilwa Kisiwani, Mafia Island and Zanzibar.
Scenic and Emerald are also offering complimentary single supplements on some eligible departures and cabin categories. The waiver removes the extra charge for occupying a double cabin alone, but it does not reduce the full cruise fare.
