Thanks so much for your reply and your invitation to share! Could you tell me a few details about your cruise ~ location, approximate time, price, etc? This would be especially wonderful, since it's our anniversary! Thanks again!

I have a question. I booked the Wishes cruise for DH and I, they charged me $200.00 She (Emily) questioned frequently that it was just DH and I. If I wanted to add addtional people can I? I have to confirm two weeks prior could I add people then?

I think this is because they have two different sized pontoon boats for Wishes, the smaller 20 foot and the larger 24 foot ($250.00).
The 20 Footer will easily handle up to 8 guests.
The boat charge is by the boat, not by the person, so the entire boat is yours, if you want to bring additional people you can without calling first.
You should have no problem adding people to your boat.

I have reserved an illuminations cruise for March 30th, 2006. The quoted price is $234 PLUS TAX, which is way different from $150. I've called once to verify that I was getting what I thought I was, and they said, that yes it is the "specialty cruise that leaves the yacht marina at 8 PM, the last cruise of the day. "Illuminations is scheduled for 9PM that night; will I get to see it? Thanks in advance.

Yes, you arrive at Bayside Marina at 8pm, check in, meet your driver, pay for your cruise ($250.00 inc/tax), and depart between 8:15 and 8:30.
You will be on the water for about 1-hour, you will definitly see the entire performance of IllumiNations.

I did a search on tipping and all I found was that some people collect from each family and another group gave $25.00 and wished they had tipped more.

So for a $200 cruise carrying 5 people what would you suggest?

Thanks.

 

[Dustball]

If by some miracle someone has room on a fireworks cruise 2/14-2/17 please PM or e-mail me dustball1@verizon.net

You would make me, my ds 2 and dh very happy!!!! Thanks so much!!!!

We tipped $25 or $30. I think that is reasonable, but like you, I wanted to know what was customary. If I had an idea of what they were being paid (I know, shouldn't matter)...

The price went up on or about Oct 1, 2005. :-(

They know what your intentions are by booking the last trip of the day. You'll be fine.
