Creator's Key Takeaways

So this is it. Our big nofly pie cruise.

I'd say that this was probably the most uncomfortable part of our entire journey.

It's been really good, actually.

Although it's more expensive than flying, it really was a pleasurable experience.

Creator's Tips & Advice

โœ“Get to St. Pancras early if you can to avoid luggage storage issues.
โœ“Register for accessibility assistance if you have mobility issues at stations.
โœ“Consider not having breakfast at the hotel if you have an early train to catch.

Uncomfortable waiting areas at stations โ€” Speak to somebody beforehand about registering for accessibility assistance if you have mobility issues.
Navigating large stations like St. Pancras and Barcelona Sants โ€” Get there early and be prepared for crowded areas; stations have assistance available.
