Scenic Group has announced details of its 2027 President’s Cruise, revealing the programme during a special onboard presentation as the company continues to expand its portfolio of leadership-hosted sailings within the ultra-luxury segment.

The themed voyage will take place aboard the newbuild riverboat Emerald Lumi, which is scheduled to enter service on the Seine in 2027.

The sailing is planned as a roundtrip from Paris departing on August 14th, 2027, and will explore ports and historic destinations along the Seine. The itinerary will continue the established format of the annual President’s Cruise programme, including hosted dinners, shore excursions, and onboard events led by Scenic Group President for the United States and Latin America, Ken Muskat.

Emerald Lumi is designed as its sister ship, Scenic Gem. The company indicated that the annual President’s Cruise remains one of Scenic Group’s principal guest engagement programmes, combining limited-capacity sailings with direct interaction between passengers and senior company leadership.

Ken Muskat stated that the President’s Cruise programme was intended to strengthen the connection between the company and its guests by creating a shared onboard experience centred on access, familiarity, and direct engagement with the Scenic Group leadership team.
