Scenic boosts pre-peaks trade support...

Agents have access to a series of training modules under the OTT partnership

A new partnership with trade training group OTT has been unveiled by Scenic Group as it prepares to drive bookings ahead of peaks.

Agents have access to a series of training modules under the OTT partnership, as well as the opportunity to learn more about the Scenic Group brands, Scenic Luxury Cruises & Tours and Emerald Cruises.

Training will cover the fleets of luxury yachts, onboard facilities, itineraries, land tours and excursions as well as new tours and itineraries for the 2025-26 season.

The Scenic Group OTT course is live with five training modules available for agents covering: Truly all-inclusive Scenic river cruises; Award-winning Emerald Cruises river cruises; Emerald Cruises luxury yacht cruises; Scenic Eclipse discovery yachts, and Scenic Eclipse expedition voyages.

The new training course comes as as three new roles are created in Scenic’s sales and partnership team. The company is recruiting for a new Sales Manager, Key Account Manager and Senior Charter Operations Executive to drive sales growth and support product development.

Sales, Partnerships and Strategic Growth Director Nick Hughes said: “Ahead of peaks and the critical Wave period, we want to ensure our agent partners are prepared to support what we all expect to be a very busy sales period.

“The investment in both training and growth of our team follows a series of successful incentives and award wins that, combined with, our ongoing mainstream UK TV placements – including Emerald Azzurra starring in Judi Love’s Culinary Cruise on ITV and Scenic Eclipse starring in Cruising with Susan Calman on Channel 5 – give trade partners confidence, knowledge and expertise to capitalise on our award-winning brands and the high-level service and experience we deliver for their clients.”
