How the index is made
Every figure is a median. Prices are list prices for 7 nights, round trip, in EUR, before extras.
A cell needs at least 20 boats; a curve needs at least 500 departures. A cell below that is left out, never estimated.
An edition is never changed after it is published. A correction goes into the next edition, listed here.
