Hi again,

So pleased! It will be $40.00 and we are expected to also give the captain a gratuity. My e-mail is deborah at campbellpatterson dot com. Please contact me to finalize re time, place and snakcs provided! This is about our 20th trip to Disney but the first time doing this so really excited too.

Looking forward to meeting you. I will post for 3 others too - the boat can hold 10.

I have an Illuminations cruise booked for family of four (me, wife, son 13, daughter 10) and would like to share to split costs. I found three posts on here looking for 4/30 and would like to give them dibs, but I just registered and can't PM or reply to them with my e-mail because of an unreasonable rule on here. How do we connect?

Hi everyone,

We still have 3 spots open for the Illuminations show on the evening of Sunday, May 26th. 2 parties so far - one of 4 adults and one of 3 adults.

Hope to fill the boat!

Room for one more. The boat consists of two couples, two women friends, and three solo travelers. Cost is $346.13 without tip, so should be $40 per person if we fill the last spot...including all taxes and tip.
Come on aboard!
PM or email me, or post here.

I had no idea there was a forum to share the expense for this experience I have been dying to do! We are a family of 3. Me 27 DH 27 and DD 5, who would love to share an Illuminations cruise with someone. Something near July 17th would be ideal, although our days are pretty open at this point. Please PM if you have something near this date! Thanks

 

[Ferrentinos]

We would love to do this - but it is too early for us yet - July 15th is our date for illuminations - wonder if anyone will be looking to split that night! I'll keep checking in - I love the idea of splitting the cost and spending a night with fellow DISers!

Anyone have space for 2 adults during these three nights? Please let me know!

How many do you have now on your cruise and do you have room for one adult? Price? Also, what time are they telling you that you need to be at the dock?

If I booked an illuminations cruise between 5-27 and 5-30 would anyone be interested in chipping in for it? We have 2 adults and 2 kids and there is room for 10 people so if I get 6 more people it will be 40 bucks per person not including tipping the captain.

Let me know what you think,
David

For everyone who has been on a cruise before how much is the "norm" for tipping the captain please???

I've heard anywhere from $5-10 per person....some perhaps more.
I'm curious to hear of other people's responses to this question as well.

 

[patty57]

Hunclemarco, our plan (as of now) is to bump it to $400, especially if we fill the cruise. It would make it $40 per person, and just an easier amount of cash to have. Right now we have nine people. The tip would be $53.87, which would come out to about 16.6% tip (based on the $325 cost without the tax). If we don't end up filling the boat, I'm guessing we will do the same, but will ask everyone about it that night.
After writing all this, do we pay for the cruise first, and then tip the captain as we leave? That would certainly get rid of the change portion of the tip. I did the cruise once before, but was a passenger, so just handed my money over. This time I booked it.

I have room for three more on an Illuminations cruise April 30, 2013.

Hi-
I had a few questions. We pay for the cruise at the Yacht club marina before casting off on the day of cruise? Also, if we're sharing, can we charge $X to one room/credit card and charge $X to another room/credit card? Thanks!
