Adverse weather linked to Storm Bruna has led to the cancellation of two cruise ship calls at the Port of Funchal.
Cunard's Queen Anne, due on Sunday, 8 November, has been re-routed on its 12-day cruise from Southampton and will no longer visit Madeira. P&O Cruises' Azura, expected on Monday, 9 November, has also cancelled its call and will follow an alternative route to avoid poor sea conditions.
The forecast had already prompted Mein Schiff 7 to bring its visit forward. Scheduled for Saturday, 7 November, it arrived on Friday, spent the night in port and left at midday on Saturday with 2,908 passengers and 1,022 crew for Santa Cruz de La Palma in the Canary Islands.
