Scenic Luxury Cruises & Tours and Emerald Yacht Cruises are rolling out a national series of Ocean Travel Lounge events in 2026, inviting Canadian travellers and travel advisors to explore the world of luxury ocean cruising in an intimate, small-group setting.

Up to 100 complimentary sessions will take place in cities across Canada throughout the year, offering attendees the opportunity to learn more about both brands’ ocean yacht experiences, itineraries and inclusions.

All events, for both brands, will be hosted by Tracy Daniels, Canada’s Ocean Yacht Cruising Specialist. Daniels will lead interactive presentations, answer questions and provide personalized guidance in a relaxed lounge-style environment.

Each session is limited to 24 guests, reinforcing the small-group format and ensuring a more intimate experience.

Emerald Yacht Cruises

Emerald Yacht Cruises’ Ocean Travel Lounge events are tailored specifically for Emerald Explorers and are intended to showcase the brand’s approach to luxury yacht cruising. The sessions highlight the line’s inclusions and immersive itineraries, with featured regions including the Mediterranean and Adriatic, the Caribbean and Central America, as well as the Seychelles and Indian Ocean.

Attendees will gain insight into the onboard experience and itinerary design, helping equip them with the knowledge to plan future voyages with confidence.

Scenic Discovery Yachts

The program also shines a spotlight on Scenic’s ocean product, including its six-star, ultra-luxury, all-inclusive yacht voyages.

Ocean Travel Lounge events dedicated to Scenic Discovery Yachts introduce guests to the brand’s exploration-driven philosophy at sea. Presentations will cover purpose-built yachts, curated onboard experiences and the company’s all-inclusive approach.

Highlighted itineraries span polar expeditions to Antarctica and the Arctic, culturally immersive discovery sailings in Europe and the Mediterranean, as well as voyages throughout the Americas and other warm-weather destinations.

Designed for Advisors and Clients

Canadian travel advisors are invited to attend the one-hour events alongside a client, with attendance reserved for advisors accompanied by a guest. The format is intended to foster meaningful conversations and support advisors in building confidence around selling luxury yacht and expedition cruising.

Light refreshments will be served, and attendees will have the opportunity to receive tailored travel recommendations based on their interests and travel style.

Event participants will also gain access to a special bonus offer available exclusively to those who attend. Additional highlights include an inside look at both fleets, including onboard features, dining venues and facilities, as well as a preview of upcoming itineraries for 2026 through 2028.
