How Emerald Kaia Offers Casual Luxury With an Aussie Style

from The Insider Travel Report Podcast · host Insider Travel Report

Tom Goetter, vice president of hotel operations for Emerald Cruises, talks with Alan Fine of Insider Travel Report aboard the new Emerald Kaia about the yacht’s small-ship design, expanded outdoor spaces, open kitchens, larger spa, marina and 128-guest capacity. Goetter also discusses how crew from Scenic, Emerald’s ultra-luxury sister brand, applied to work aboard Emerald Kaia, contributing to the ship’s service levels as well as the line’s focus on warm-weather yachting and what he calls “luxury with Aussie easiness.” For more information, visit www.emeraldcruises.com.  All our Insider Travel Report video interviews are archived and available on our Youtube channel  (youtube.com/insidertravelreport), and as podcasts with the same title on: Spotify, Pandora, Stitcher, PlayerFM, Listen Notes, Podchaser, TuneIn + Alexa, Podbean,  iHeartRadio,  Google, Amazon Music/Audible, Deezer, Podcast Addict, and iTunes Apple Podcasts, which supports Overcast, Pocket Cast, Castro and Castbox.
