Auguste’s appointment, says John Stunson, VP of Finance, Scenic USA, is part of the company’s reorganization efforts to establish a cohesive Groups Department for North America.
“Lisa comes to us with significant experience in groups in the cruising world, having served as a VP, Groups at Oceania, Groups Management in Cunard, Seabourn and Celebrity, and more recently as VP of Operations and Reservations with Atlas Ocean Voyages. We look forward to her driving a new groups vision for Scenic,” says Stunson.
Auguste adds: “My love is groups and developing long-term relationships with travel partners. I look to build upon Scenic Group brands’ existing strengths by bringing more awareness and simplicity to the group program and make it more user-friendly and profitable for travel advisors.
“Scenic is an established brand that’s always been recognized for offering an outstanding product. I believe its multi-pronged direction for the future with both luxury river and ocean products, which promises many great things to come.”
