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

[UrsulasShadow]

Hey!!...how are you??

Yep, cake again!

Darn, I miss you this time around...I'm going the 4th to the 11th, and have the Breathless myself one night.
Doing the double birthday again?

 

[KristineN]

this time the entire family is going (11 of us) 16-27. Bill's birthday again & my nephew. I hope I don't pass out with the crowds...where are you staying? have you done the Breathless before?

Breathless is going to be a new experience for me. I wasn't even planning on going to WDW this year, but some friends of mine had rented a house offsite, and asked me to call and book them some ADRs and the Breathless for them, and in exchange I could stay with them free of charge! How can I pass that up, even staying offsite (which I hate to do, but hey, can't have everything)?
So, you're doing actual Christmas? I've done that twice, and I know you'll be able to handle it! Plan, plan, plan.

sounds like a pretty good deal to me (even with off site ) I have everything pretty much planned out...just a little concerned with the crowds...but at the same time excited to actually be there on Christmas

KristineN I have just pm'd you but thought I would reply on the boards as well just to let you know how excited I am. I have been scouring the boards for a cruise to share, and this is the exact date we had planned to view the Illuminations anyway, so it would be perfect. We are a family of three from the UK. This is our first trip at Christmas so we are extra excited about that. Holding thumbs that this works out for us.

 

[KristineN]

sent you an email

KristineN, I just PMed you as well. My Husband2Be and I will be honeymooning in WDW and would love to join you on your Illuminations cruise on December 22nd. I hope you still have space. I really want to surprise my DH2B. Let me know.

Hi,

We (DD10, DD14, DW and me DH) are a well behaved family and are coming all the way from South Africa to Disney for 6 to 16 December 2007.

We tried to book an Illuminations cruise at the 90 mark but were pipped to the post for some speedier dialers than us

We would love to share a cruise on any of these nights

Fri 7
Mon 10
Wed 12

This is a once in a lifetime vacation for us and this would help make it a little more special

[alijolly]

looking for 2 spots on a Dec 31st NYE cruise. (prefer wishes )

2 spaces still available for NYE, I have pmed you

 

[wdw4mealso]

Does anyone have room for 5 on an Illuminations cruise anytime from Dec.21-Dec. 30? It is with my DH, DD,DD,DS and myself. I didn't call to book one figuring it is too late. This will be our second trip for Christmas 10th overall and I'm trying to find things we haven't done yet that everyone will like (not just golfing for the hubby). Let me know if you do . Thanks.

Specialty cruises involving the Breathless II now have a maximum capacity of SIX guests.. which is a reduction from the former number of seven guests.

This is still early, but I just wanted to see if anyone who is going in May (6th-14 for us) will be looking into getting an Illuminations cruise during this same time? Our anniversary is the 12th, but any night would be fun. Again this is early, but just wanted to see if anyone had thought about it.

Wow, I hope this doesn't mess anyone up who has one booked.

 

[goofygirlz]

My breathless cruise is in December...I called and was told they will honor the 7 guests. I would think they would have to honor anyone who already made the reservation based upon that number.

 

[CanadianGuy]

Thanks for the update goofygirlz. I'm going to copy that post over to the main notice thread.

[JuneChickie]

I will be there next week .

I would love to see the fireworks via one of the specialty boats.


Does anyone have room for "one" quiet person who would love
to be a part of the excitement.
I would be willing to pay my fair share.

I will be there from 11-8 thru 11-16

Please pm me if you would be willing to let me come aboard.

I love fireworks.

Thanks

It will be a tight squeeze.......

 

[goofygirlz]

I have a large group, so I booked a pontoon as well as a breathless...guess I will put the smaller folks over on the breathless

It will be a tight squeeze.......

 

[UrsulasShadow]

Crazy Hakim or anyone with this knowledge,
I know that the boat captain will drop you off at the MGM boat dock after the specialty cruise if you ask (or so I've heard). Will there be any problem doing that with the Breathless? And will they do that even if MGM is closed by that time? And is it safe to leave your car parked in the lot when the park is closed? Any problem with getting out, or having your car towed?
