If you’ve been trying to figure out when might be the best time to book the all-inclusive, five-star cruise vacation you’ve always dreamed of, this just might be it. Scenic Luxury Cruises and Emerald Cruises—two Scenic Group brands— are both launching a Labor Day Sale that offers substantial bonus savings on select 2023 and 2024 river and ocean voyages.

With Scenic Luxury Cruises, guests can save $1,500 per suite on a selection of 2024 European river cruise itineraries, set to sail down the storied Rhine, Main, Moselle, Danube, Rhône and Bordeaux rivers. Guests who’d prefer an ultra-luxury ocean experience can save up to $4,000 per suite when they book aboard the brand’s twin discovery yachts, Scenic Eclipse and Scenic Eclipse II, on select 2023 and 2024 voyages itineraries sailing to such destinations as Australia, Antarctica, the Arctic, the Caribbean, Europe and South America.

With Emerald Cruises, customers can claim up to $1,000 bonus savings per suite on a range of river and ocean voyages, from Europe to the Caribbean. EligibleEuropean river cruises include 2024 itineraries that sail along the Danube and Rhine rivers, as well as sailings along Dutch and Belgian waterways during the always-popular tulip season. Qualifying ocean cruises include a variety of 2023 and 2024 season voyages sailing in the Caribbean and Central America aboard the line’s first 100-guest luxury yacht Emerald Azzurra or its newly-launched sister ship, Emerald Sakara

To take advantage of either of these lines’ Labor Day promotions, guests must book their cruises between August 28 and September 8, 2023. Savings are also combinable with two-for-one pricing when paid in full, as well as any other current in-market offers.
