Travelled from central London (Victoria Coach station) on the 1030 National Express coach to Dover to join our mini cruise on the MSC Magnifica that was relocating to Europe from a season in South America.
The train from St Pancras International would have been much quicker - but coach option was only 5! Shuttle buses were running from Dover town centre to the ship but opted to walk.
Check-in for our cruise didn't officialy open till 3pm so I wasn't expecting to board until 4pm at the earliest.
12022 was a great cabin - rated as disabled so nice size. One deck lower than buffet and swimming pools and close to lift for lower decks (restaurant and theatre)
