The Emerald Kaia.

Beginning September 14, Global’s The Morning Show will roll out a week of exclusive features chronicling a Mediterranean journey with Emerald Yacht Cruises. 

In July, The Morning Show host Carolyn Mackenzie along with travel expert and Travel Best Bets founder and president Claire Newell stepped aboard the brand’s newest luxury superyacht, Emerald Kaia. The resulting television segments offer an inside look at what life is like on board a superyacht created for relaxed luxury and authentic adventures.

“Our viewers will feel like they were right there with us, soaking in the sun-drenched coastlines, stunning-clear waters and rich culture of Venice, Istria and the Croatian archipelago,” said Mackenzie.

“What stood out most was how effortlessly the journey blended moments of pure relaxation with genuine discovery. Sailing with Emerald Yacht Cruises gave us a front-row seat to the beauty and charm of the Mediterranean and Adriatic, delivered with a level of elegance and luxurious comfort that made every stop feel special.”

You can catch Mackenzie and Newell’s Mediterranean adventure on The Morning Show on Global from September 14 to 18, airing daily between 9:00 and 10:00 AM EST. 

Each episode will include a five-minute segment following their experience aboard Emerald Yacht Cruises as they travelled across the Mediterranean. The segments will highlight a different facet of the journey each day, from standout culinary moments and immersive shore excursions to onboard life, suite accommodations, and cultural discoveries along the way. To top it off, The Morning Show and Emerald Yacht Cruises will give away a free Adriatic Cruise for two to one lucky viewer.

Next Generation of Luxury Yachting

Following the success of Emerald Azzurra and Emerald Sakara, Emerald Yacht Cruises welcomed Emerald Kaia in April. 

The superyacht introduces an expanded observation deck, a sun deck complete with private cabanas and an indoor lounge, brand-new spa and wellness facilities, refined dining concepts, and suites and staterooms with more generous floorplans than ever before. 

Hosting just 128 guests per sailing, every voyage includes airport transfers, gratuities, complimentary Wi-Fi, three meals daily, and a curated selection of included excursions.
