Continuity Errors:

1) The cruise was originally 12 nights, but one day was cut due to repositioning delays. So throughout the vlog I use 11-night and 12-night interchangeably.

2) The enormous queue shown in the intro was reembarking at the first port in Madeira. I cut all port visits from the vlog due to time, but it took over an hour to get back on the ship due to security staffing at the port. All other ports ran very smoothly with no longer than a 5 minute wait.

3) Champagne Bar - sparkling cocktails under £14 are also included (I don’t know why the graphic didn’t highlight these drinks 🤷🏼‍♂️)

4) Disembarkation - You receive a letter two days before explaining in great detail the process. Label your hold luggage bags and leave outside of your cabin the night before. You are then assigned a time and meeting point to disembark, you then find your cases in the terminal.
