Creator's Key Takeaways

We honestly thought this was going to be the last one because we we didn't really enjoy the Azora.

Embarcation was super smooth. We were through in maybe half an hour, 45 minutes, and we were well over an hour early for our imbarcation time.

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Bring a refillable water bottle as free drinks are limited.
βœ“Take a photo of your car parking ticket to easily locate your vehicle upon return.

πŸ†•New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Finding your way around a large ship β€” The layout is intuitive and there are signs everywhere; you'll quickly learn your way.
Long queues during embarkation β€” Don't panic if you see a line; it moves very quickly as P&O manages it well.
What to do on sea days β€” There are many activities like cinema, shows, reading, and relaxing; it's a relaxing cruise.
