Scenic Luxury Cruises & Tours has announced the launch of Scenic Eclipse has been delayed until late January 2019. The delay is the result of construction issues at the shipyard.
“Despite the best efforts of our Scenic Eclipse build supervision team to make up construction time, we are not prepared to compromise the quality of the vessel and potentially impact guest experiences to meet the original late August 2018 launch date,” said Scenic Founder and chairman, Glen Moroney
Scenic is contacting all guests affected by the delay, as well as their travel agents.

It is fully refunding the cruise price and other reasonable associated costs.
“In addition, the Scenic team will work closely with guests to reschedule their trip at a suitable time, for travel within the next two years. Scenic will provide all guests who rebook a Scenic Eclipse voyage during this time a future cruise credit to the value of 25 percent of the cost of their rebooked cruise,” said Moroney.
Billed as the “world’s first discovery yacht,” the 228-passenger Scenic Eclipse will feature butler service, six restaurants, eight lounges, a theater, spa and fitness area, pools, a submarine and a helipad.
A sister ship to Scenic Eclipse is set for a 2020 debut.
