The Derbyshire couple made their "challenging" enquiry in October and were sailing on Queen Mary 2 from Southampton to New York on the first leg of their journey later that month.
Bolsover Cruise Club Cruise Expert Abbie Wood was tasked with creating the once-in-a-lifetime itinerary.
She told TTG: "I'm quite confident. It was a challenge but I enjoyed it. It took me away from doing the normal round-trip Southampton sailings that I normally do. They are a bit repetitive. It was nice to have something to get my teeth into."
Despite the huge task in front of her, Wood reveals the itinerary "did not take as long as you would think" to build.
