ILLUMINATIONS CRUISES-What they are--How to book--FIND ONE TO SHARE

[silverhaze269]

I'm just going to put this out here on this board too...if anyone has success at securing an Illuminations cruise for any dates between Dec 18 and 26, there are 4 of us who would be really appreciative if someone doesn't mind sharing. Thanks a bunch! (I'll let you guys know if I can get something for any of those dates)

I am looking for 3 spots, 2 adults and 1 child (10yr old) for any of these nights. I know it's close but if someone has something open up we would really appreciate it. Thanks

How about a wishes cruise we have room. We also have a 10 year old DD.

Thanks so much!!! I can't call til Nov 3, so wish me luck!!!

Yeah, good luck!!! I had my DH calling on his cellphone and I had my cellphone and landphone preparing for a very busy morning, but like I said, I got right thru as soon as it was 7 a.m. I'm really excited about the Wishes cruise. I have a brother who goes to WDW at least 2x's a month, and can't for the life of him figure out why I want to go on this cruise. Like you said, maybe it's the woman and the castle thing.

We are a well behaved family (DW, DD10, DD14 and me) from South Africa still looking for a cruise on Sat 8 December 2007! We tried to book at the 90 day mark but were beaten to the post (by mere seconds I believe). Anybody have room?

 

[schaery]

Keep calling every day as someone may cancel a cruise on your day, and keep posting in case someone gets an opening. Best of luck to you.

Hi -

We have space for a family of 4-5, preferably with elementary aged children. It's my son's 7th birthday, so we'll be having cake and it would be fun for him to have some other kids around. Be there at 8:15 pm, boat leaves from the Polynesian Marina at 8:30 pm, Wishes at 9 pm.

Hope someone wants to join the party!

I was lucky enough to snag an Illuminations Cruise this morning for Jan 17th. We are an adult only group and I would like to offer a couple honeymooning the chance to join us as our guest. The only requirement is you have to wear the bride and groom mouse ears (just kidding).

 

[DaisyDuck001]

I have reserved an Illuminations Cruise for Monday, December 10. There is currently room for eight more people to join me. It will be fun to share this experience with other Disney fans.

The total cost for the whole boatload is $275, so divided among ten people, that is $27.50 per person.

(Beyond that, tipping the boat driver is at your discretion.)

Please PM me to arrange to send me your payment of $27.50 per person to save your spot(s). I will ask you to pay me in advance, because I am getting billed for the whole group.

Looking forward to sharing the Illuminations cruise with some of you!

Daisy

My partner Jake and I are going to Disney World for the first time this November. We're super duper excited. But before I started reading about the Illuminations Cruise on DisBoards, I didn't know about having to book the Illuminations Cruise in advance. So we're looking for two spots on a cruise on either November 10th or November 16th. If anyone has any spots available on either day, and you wouldn't mind the company of 2 thirty year-old, professional guys from Berkeley, CA, please PM me. Thanks!

 

[OnceUponADream07]

Our trip is just about a month away. We are 3 adults hoping to share an Illuminations Cruise on Nov. 29th. Hope someone has room for us -
Me (50 +); DH (50+) and DBFF (40+)

Sorry to get back to you so late. You have probably already left on your vacation. But, if not, what date do you have the cruise booked for?

 

[lbcrosby]

I want to say thanks to this message board for helping us pull together a wonderful illuminations cruise we took a few weeks ago. We are a family of three and were able to find seven other people to share the event with us. It was a lot of fun and was a wonderful ending to our Disney World vacation.

Dh and I have decided to cancel our Wishes cruise for Dec 17th.

If anyone would like to set up a time for me to cancel so that you can snag it let me know. Otherwise I will be cancelling it this weekend.

 

[Hobbes]

Still hoping for a Wishes or Illuminations cruise for 2 Brits (fairly well-behaved) between 27th November and 5th December.If anyone has 2 spaces available please PM me-its a surprise for my DBf if I can pull it off (I'm not very good at keeping surprises )

I have the following booked:


December 19th
Grand 1 Yacht 1.5 hour excursion 8:30 pm we will be seeing the Wishes Fireworks.......I have room for 6 people. Off the top of my head I would say it will be $45-50 pp. give or take.

December 22

I have an Illuminations Pontoon booked & the Breathless booked. I have room for 6 more people. We can equally divided the cost pp including tip for the driver.

This is my 3rd year sharing cruises and it has always been a wonderful experience! If you need a reference from a past Dis member who shared a cruise with me...just let me know.

If you are interested...please PM me.

edited to add...I didn't realize how many people fit on the Grand 1, so I actually have room for 6 more. Price down to $45-50 pp.
