Hey there DIS-ers,

My wife and I (30's) are going Aug 24-29 and would love to join an existing cruise if anybody has space.

If I don't hear back,I'm going to try to book my own and if I do, I'll extend the offer to join. So excited!

Hi All!

We have a party of 4 adults who would like to do a fireworks cruise for either November 9th or 10th. Anyone willing to split it with us?

Thanks!

My son and daughter-in-law will be celebrating their 5th anniversary at Disney on Sunday, December 15 (they were married in the Gazebo outside of the Beach Club resort!) - They will be having dinner at the Yachtsman and I thought a cruise after would be a GREAT anniversary present. Does anyone have room for 2 on that night? Thanks SO very much!

On the off chance that someone managed to book a cruise but still has space, my hubby and I would love the chance to view illuminations from one of the boats. We're planning on being in EPCOT both 12/28 and NYE.

Thanks in advance!!!

Mom and daughter (super fun, adults) team are looking to find some fun shipmates for July 16-24, 2014. Obviously, we can't afford it on our own, so who's with us?

Please PM... I have not yet booked!

Anybody up for sharing an Illuminations cruise with my wife and I on our baby moon on May 27th? We would have room for 8 more on the boat. I haven't made reservations yet, but we are hoping to find some other fans to split the cost before booking. Hope we can make this work for a special night!

I have an Illuminations Cruise booked for Saturday, 9/27, with room to share. Our party consists of just my best friend and I (two fun single moms in our early 40s leaving the kids with their Grammas to enjoy the Food & Wine Festival for a few days ), so we have room for 8 more. If we fill the boat, the cost per person would work out to about $37, plus a tip for the captain. Illuminations is at 10:00 that night, so we need to be at the marina at the Yacht Club at 9:00.

Since this is a rare opportunity for us to travel without our respective kids, I'd like to keep the cruise to adults only. PM me if interested!

Thinking about getting a cruise for my friend and I. How does everyone work payment. Do you have your guests pre-pay or just pay that night. I would hate for them not to show up and being left with an empty boat.

When I've shared cruises in the past, everyone just pays the person who booked in cash that night. Yes, there's an element of trust, since the person booking could get stuck with the cost, but I've shared a few and never run into any issues.
