Hi there

Anyone looking to share an Illuminations Cruise during JANUARY? If you have reserved an Illuminations Cruise and are willing to share, please post your date here. Perhaps we can coordinate this and help each other out.

When you post your reply, use the subject box to tell whether you need space (and how many you need) on a cruise or if you have space available and include the dates. I think that might make it a little easier to coordinate a match.

Even with the new changes, you can still get an Illuminations Cruise

There have been some changes made in the Illuminations Cruises. First, they are no longer called Illuminations Cruises, all of the fireworks cruises at WDW are known as "Specialty Cruises" because they cannot guarantee that you will see Illuminations.

There are also daytime "Specialty" cruises. They are booked at two hour intervals beginning at 12 noon. In order to have a chance to see Illuminations, you will need to call 407-WDW-PLAY 90 days in advance and request the 8:00 PM cruise, telling them that you hope to see Illuminations (or the Magic Kingdom fireworks). They will then schedule your cruise for 1/2 hour prior to the beginning of Illuminations.

Why can't they guarantee that you will see Illuminations? These cruises last 45 minutes, only. If, for some reason, Illuminations is delayed, your boat will still return to the marina when 45 minutes have passed, whether or not Illuminations has finished.

So, who has a cruise to share in JANUARY?
 
Hello,
I have 8 seats left on an Illuminations Cruise on January 25th.
My wife and I would love some shipmates onboard!
This will be our fourth cruise. Soda and Snacks will be provided.
The cruise will depart the Beach and Yacht Club dock between 8:15PM and 8:30PM.
If anyone is interested, please email me for details.
Thanks,

Hi there,

It looks like there might be a group of people on this thread looking for Jan 21. There are 4 in your family, 3 in hannymom's group, and I'm a solo rider. If we can find an additional 2 to 4 people, we could fill a pontoon for a cruise... Thoughts?
 
First question I have is: What exactly is the Illuminations Cruise?? :confused3

Second: What is the cost?

We are a party of 3 Adults, 1 - 15 year old, and 1 - 6 month old. (Mothers & Daughters trip). Our dates are January 23-27. This is a first time trip for 2 of the Adults and infant and I would like to make it very special for them. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Here's some info on the cruises :

http://www.wdwinfo.com/recreation/fireworks.htm

Illuminations is the fireworks show at Epcot. You see it from a boat on the lagoon. It's supposed to be awesome! If you share the costs, it should be about $30 - $40 per person depending on how many people you find to share with you.
 
We'd love to share a cruise with someone any day January 20-28 (except 1/25). We are a party of 5- three little boys and DH and I. Anyone have a cruise booked?

Anyone know what happens if the weather is bad?
they cancel it and give you your $$$ back - we had this happen last visit during a bad storm :(

All depends how bad. Pontoon boats can go out in rain but not lightning. They will try to wait out the storm, but if weather causes the cancellation you will not be charged.
 
Thanks and bump hoping someone is looking to share illuminations once from Jan 27 to Feb 1/ Just my husband and I.

DD23 and I will be in WDW 1/7 to 1/14. It would be great to share a cruise on 1/8, 1/10, 1/12 or 1/13. Let me know, we are celebrating her college graduation.
