I'd have no luck at all. Months of planning, booking 15 hotels for 8 people through Spain and Morocco, together with 4 ferries and what happens... Brittany Ferries cancel the Santander ferry and it's 4 days before we can get another. Since we were never going to be able to make up the time we all went home! At least that way most of the hotel bookings could be cancelled. Oh well, there's always next year.
