Scenic Luxury Cruises & Tours dress guidance

  • Ocean Discovery Yachts: daytime clothing is casual and comfortable; dinner is smart casual, such as open-neck shirts and trousers or dresses. A jacket, blazer or tie is optional.

Packing suggestions are Deluxe Cruises editorial guidance; the cruise line's final documents and the weather forecast control the last check.

What services and amenities are available aboard Scenic Ikon?

  • European Space-Ships publish Standard, Balcony, Junior and Royal categories. Scenic Sun Lounges apply to selected balcony and suite categories rather than every room, while butler service is published for every suite.

Review the exact room or suite number, category, deck position, layout, and benefits for Voyage 701S211228.1 before reserving.

Can children and babies sail aboard Scenic Ikon?

  • Expedition activities, Zodiacs, kayaks, helicopters and submersibles may have higher age, size or mobility limits set for each voyage.
  • Current Scenic Eclipse terms require a medical certificate and do not accept a guest who will enter the 24th week before or during the voyage.
