Scenic Invites Guests to Help Celebrate its 30th Birthday With a Choice of Very Special Offers Free flights, reduced business class air, free hotel nights, savings up to $3,000, and more Boston, November 2016'€" Thirty years ago, Scenic was born from a quest to improve the occupancy of one small, out-of-the-way hotel on Australia’s southern coast. Assigned to this challenge, Glen Moroney created much needed marketing materials and began visiting retirement communities to promote bus tours from the hotel that took in Australia’s Great Ocean Road. Within a year, the property was full'€¦ and Moroney had caught the tour business bug and began to carve a niche creating the ultimate travel experience for guests who were seeking memorable trips punctuated by exceptional service. Today, the company escorts more than 500 land and water itineraries in 66 countries and takes visitors to every continent. To express their appreciation to the guests who have supported them over the past 30 years, Scenic is inviting both new and past guests to share in the celebration with a host of special anniversary river cruise promotions. These offers are for US residents on new bookings only and are not combinable. Demand is expected to be strong and these offers are good while supplies last. Business class air - from $1495 to $2995, depending on itinerary and date; Premium class air - from FREE to $595, depending on itinerary and date; FLY FREE Economy air'€" from 20 major gateways - available on all Seine and Bordeaux river cruises as well as 15-day or greater Rhine, Main and Danube sailings; Economy air for $495'€" from top 20 gateways - available on all eight-day Rhine, Main and Danube sailings; Save $2000 per couple on all eight-day sailings or $3000 per couple on all French sailings and 15-day or greater Rhine, Main and Danube sailings; yes Three FREE nights in Prague on the eight-day Nuremburg to Budapest cruise itinerary.
