Fireworks cruise.......did I just get lucky

[jthornton94]

we took a Wishes cruise many years ago and I know I was on the phone at the first possible booking moment. This time I am less than 60 days out and on a whim was able to snag an Illuminations cruise. Are they just not as popular any more?

I am looking forward to ours as I picked our arrival night when we aren't going to any parks but do have reservations at Beaches and Cream for a kitchen sink! I think it will be a great way to kick off our trip,

You will LOVE your Illuminations cruise!! We have done it twice, and it is everyone's favorite part of the trips!

I think the demand has decreased because the price has gotten so high.

I know it is more than twice what we paid in 2006 for our Illuminations cruise on the Breathless.

Can you tell me a little more about this cruise-where does it go, how do you book it, any food/desserts included, etc?

For Illuminations, it takes off from the Yacht Club and parks under the bridge by France for the fireworks. There are drinks and chips included. It is about an hour long and if fireworks are canceled you are out of luck as they are considered a perk to the cruise. Cost is $325 plus tax and tip and can cover up to 10 people.

I think it's the price.

Have fun!
