Scenic to host Antarctica webinar with polar explorers

Scenic Luxury Cruises & Tours will host an Antarctica webinar with polar explorers for agents on August 18.

The session will be hosted by Scenic’s director of discovery operations Jason Flesher, who will interview explorer Robert Swan OBE, the first person to walk to both the north and south pole, and explorer Dr Scott Pallett who will share insights about life on the ice.

Swan will join a Ross Sea: Majestic Ice & Wildlife sailing on January 29, 2026, where passengers will have opportunities to ask him about his experiences.

Pallett will join a 24-day Ross Sea: Majestic Ice & Wildlife voyage on January 6, 2026, with fellow explorer Bill Kwok to continue his research into anti-microbial resistance.

The webinar will be on Zoom at 7pm on August 18, and agents can register their interest here.

It accompanies an ongoing incentive for Scenic’s Antarctica programme offering agents the chance to win a £500 Love2Shop, M&S or Amazon voucher for every new, deposited booking made for Q4 2025 and Q1 2026 sailings.

Scenic UK head of sales Jonathan Davies said: “We are thrilled to collaborate with the legendary polar explorers and are committed to helping agents deepen their expertise in our exceptional Antarctica programme.

“In addition to the webinar, we’ve developed a comprehensive suite of marketing assets designed to support agents in inspiring and informing their customers.”
