November 11, 2026 Team Contributor
A journey along Europe’s beautiful rivers, an expedition to Antarctica or a luxury escape across the Mediterranean could come with a much lower price tag this Black Friday. Canadians planning their next cruise holiday can now enjoy savings of up to 40% on selected European river sailings and additional discounts of up to $4,500 per person on selected ocean voyages.
Scenic Group Canada is offering Black Friday cruise deals to Canadians through Scenic Luxury Cruises & Tours and Emerald Cruises & Tours. Running from November 12 to December 7, 2026, the promotion covers selected departures between 2027 and 2029, with included flights on eligible ocean itineraries and waived single supplement fees on selected river cruises.
For travellers who have been waiting for the right opportunity to book a cruise, there is plenty to compare across the two brands.
Fancy a European river cruise? Save up to 40%
Europe’s rivers are getting a Black Friday price cut, with Scenic and Emerald offering up to 40% savings on selected 2027 departures.
The promotion covers seven waterways: the Douro, Rhine, Main, Danube, Moselle, Rhône and Seine. Whether travellers want to explore historic European cities or enjoy a slower journey through scenic river landscapes, there are several itineraries to consider.
Scenic’s featured journeys include the 15-day Jewels of Europe, starting at $6,195 per person, and the 11-day Beautiful Bordeaux, from $6,015.
Emerald’s options include the eight-day Sensations of Lyon & Provence, starting at $3,655 per person, and the 15-day Splendours of Europe, from $4,629.
Travelling solo? There is another reason to look at these offers. Both brands are waiving single supplement fees on eligible departures when travellers mention offer code BFSINGLE at booking.
Dreaming of Antarctica? Ocean cruise savings reach $4,500
The Black Friday cruise deals get even more attractive for travellers eyeing an ocean escape. Scenic Discovery Yachts is offering selected 2027–2029 departures with included airfare in Business Class, Premium Economy or Economy, plus savings starting at $500 per person.
The additional Black Friday bonuses can reach $4,500 per person on eligible sailings.
For those dreaming of a polar adventure, selected Antarctica and Arctic voyages offer savings starting at $1,000 per person, alongside included flights and additional discounts of up to $4,500.
There are more opportunities across Australia, New Zealand, the South Pacific and Southeast Asia. Selected 2028–2029 departures offer savings starting at $2,300 per person, with additional bonuses of up to $3,500.
Emerald’s luxury superyacht offers add even more destinations to the mix. Selected sailings across the Mediterranean and Adriatic, Seychelles, Caribbean, Central America, Southeast Asia and the Middle East include flights and savings starting at $350 per person, with additional discounts reaching $1,000.
More than just a discount: What should travellers check?
With so many destinations and itineraries included, travellers have an opportunity to compare different cruise experiences before deciding where to go.
However, the advertised savings are not universal. They apply to selected departures, and airfare inclusions, cabin availability and booking conditions vary by itinerary. Checking these details before booking will help travellers understand the real value of each offer.
Those who want a hand comparing cruise options, choosing suitable departure dates or planning the rest of their holiday should reach out to a local professional travel advisor.
Don’t miss the December 7 booking deadline
The Scenic Group Black Friday promotion runs until December 7, 2026, with availability limited on selected departures.
Travellers can explore the offers through the official Scenic and Emerald Cruises websites. With river and ocean journeys available across three booking years, those planning ahead have several destinations and departure options to explore before the sale ends.
