Emerald Waterways and Emerald Yacht Cruises have positioned under one single brand identity, now known as Emerald Cruises. The brand is part of the Scenic Group.

Production hurdles during the build of Emerald Yacht Cruises’ maiden ship, Emerald Azzurra, have forced a delay in the launch of the 100-passenger superyacht.

Scenic Group’s six-year-old Emerald Waterways river cruise brand, a sister company to the Australian deluxe holiday brand Evergreen Cruises & Tours, has this week marked its Australian entry.

Scenic Group used its annual travel partner awards event last weekend, the ‘Night of Stars’, as the platform to reveal its next move in the oceangoing cruise segment. Company Chairman and Owner Glen Moroney announced a new super yacht for the Evergreen Cruises brand would launch from July 2021.
