Disembarkation for a flight you've booked yourself

<h2>Disembarkation for a flight you've booked yourself</h2><p>If you have made independent flight arrangements, you must vacate your cabin at 8:00am and will be required to disembark the ship in accordance with your disembarkation time, which will be provided a few days prior to the end of your cruise. </p><p>You will be given cream luggage labels and must place your bags outside your cabin the night before disembarking. The crew will collect these and offload them from the ship. Your luggage will be stored securely on the quayside, from where you can collect them when you leave the ship. If your flights are booked independently, you must arrange your own transfer to the airport.</p>
