Editorial Summary

Jamie concludes her seven night Canary Islands and Madeira cruise aboard the P&O Azura by exploring Tenerife. The journey includes an excursion to Mount Teide National Park, where she describes the volcanic landscapes and the high elevation. After visiting Santa Cruz de Tenerife for tapas, she returns to the ship for a final afternoon of relaxation and a farewell dinner in the Meridian restaurant. The creator details the fly cruise disembarkation process, including luggage labeling and the transition to a chartered flight. Despite a seat double booking on her Titan Airways flight home, she describes the flight experience as positive. In her final reflections, Jamie notes that the cruise restored her faith in fly cruising and P&O. She praises the crew service and the quality of the main dining room food, though she suggests the ship could benefit from a refresh. She concludes by recommending the Canary Islands itinerary for its unique individual islands and pleasant January weather.

I'm praying to the Spanish gods and goddesses that it is a smooth journey home please we've suffered so much so recently anyway

Azura needs a refresh but most of the public areas are looking absolutely fine and dandy

We've had the best week and it really has restored our faith first of all in fly cruises but also a little bit in P&O

The itinerary W please do not Overlook the Canary Islands each is so individual unique with something to offer for everyone
