Scenic targets closer ties with trade


Harry Kemble harry.kemble@travelweekly.co.uk


The UK boss of Scenic has pledged to build closer ties with the trade after admitting the line had been “a little passive” with agents in the past.


Colin Downing, Scenic’s UK


general manager, said the luxury line needed to be more proactive when building relationships with agents and would do that through education. He said: “We listen and are very


open to new ways of working and improving how we support the trade. Having previously been a little passive in the past, we now

want to be an active and leading member of Clia. Scenic has invited four agents


on a VIP fam trip to see Scenic Eclipse in November. The ship will embark on its eight-day South America coastline rediscovery


voyage from Guayaquil, Ecuador to Santiago, Chile. Downing exclusively told Travel


Weekly: “Scenic Eclipse has enabled us to build new relationships within the luxury ocean cruise market while continuing to


work closely with existing trade partners.” Downing was speaking after Scenic announced it would build a second ‘discovery yacht’. The 228-passenger Scenic Eclipse II will launch in May 2020 when it embarks on its maiden voyage from Athens to Lisbon. The vessel will have a similar design to its sister ship, and will launch on August 31. Downing said Scenic had created a new category in the luxury market. “We have developed a new category – luxury six-star expedition cruising,” he said. “Six star isn’t new, neither is expedition or discovery cruising,


however, nobody else does both.” scenic.co.uk
