I think I need to look at all these bookings...but...just in case anyone else is looking...my DH and I (2 persons) would love to come along any cruise booked between September 10- September 21...OR November 29- December 11. PuLeeze let me know if you have room!

You have a PM

Ozymoe.....I am on the Wishes cruise with Mom21 on 9/19 leaving from the Poly. It is an adults cruise (with the exception of one well behaved 10yo). We would love to have you. I think Mom21 sent you a PM.

i know this is a far chance - but anyone have anything for new years eve for 7 adults (all very tame and friendly - no wild peoples here~!!)???? its my birthday!!!thanks for checking, wendy

Just want to warn you that 4th of July and NYE are Premium nights on the cruises and the price rises dramatically (Over $500 per boat) for that one night.

On the lookout for a Illuminations cruise to share! November 21 -27th? Two adults: me and my well-behaved DH.

DH has never seen Illuminations, and I thought this would be a great surprise.

Thanks!

Any Illumination cruises on 12/13 or 12/14?

 

[Jletendre]

We leave in 3 days for WDW

Anyways we have a Wishes Cruise booked on the 30th and wanted to know how everyone handles the tip when they share? Did you factor the tip into your split or leave it to the other party(s) to decide what to tip?

I assume the standard 15-20% on the cost applies?

I have a Wishes cruise booked for Saturday, Nov 10 with audio. We have two adults and two kids (7 & 2 1/2). Anyone want to join us? TIA.

 

[Tiggernut_jadie]

Oh darn - we go home on the 8th!!!!

 

[daninalismama]

Please, please, please, if you have a Wishes Audio cruise booked and have room for 4 very respectful adults, please PM me - would love to share.

Also, I could do 9/13, assuming we wouldn't need park tickets for the cruise. Can anyone confirm this?

I have a WISHES birthday cruise booked for the 14th of November leaving from the Wilderness Lodge at 7pm - we have 5 adults already and can take either 5 more adults and 2 children or less adults and more kids. We have the Birthday cruise booked with the piped in audio for $300 (decorations, snacks, cake and all). If we get to 12 then it would only be $25 per person plus tip for the driver - what a deal. smithhefler@hughes.net Have a glorious day! Dawn

Hello,


Just wanted to clarify something. The previous poster stated that they can accept 5 adults and 2 kids in addition to the five adults already booked. Unfortunately, the premium boat holds a maximum of 10 people, irregardless of age. The basic boat hold a max of 8. Hope that helps,

Take care,

Bill

I will have to call and check because when I called to reserve the CM told me I could have 10 adults or 12 with a mixture of children. You were right - I just called disney and they just told me a total of 10 people - but I swear they told me 12 the first time I called to reserve - so I stand corrected - thank you. So now I have room for 5 people - does not matter if adults or children. Let me know if you are interested in joining us! Have a magical day!!

 

[MajorWoody]

Hello again,

I'm sorry for the wrong info the original CM gave you. Sometimes it seems they are not all up to date on the cruises. I've had them tell guests to go to the wrong dock, at the wrong time, along with other erroneous info.

And who knows, I might be joining you on your cruise anyway, as I'm a cruise skipper for Wishes & Illuminations!!!!


Have fun, and take care,

Bill

FYI this is a temporary situation. When Bayside Marina replaced Breathless with Breathless II, manufactured by Hacker Craft, the boat went thru extensive testing and training. Only the full time driver (Aaron) was trained, so that if any major issues were discovered, he would be better suited to have them corrected before any of the other drivers were "behind the wheel."
It so happens that there were some steering issues that needed adjustment, and after this and a few other corrections were made, the boat was recently cleared for guests. Also, not that this has happened, additional drivers will be trained and as soon as their training is completed, Breathless II will be running 7 Days a week, although no timetable is currently available.

Crazy Hakim or Major Woody - any info/updates on the Breathless II running Sundays or Mondays? TIA!

 

[smithhefler]

That is too cool!! At this point I know we leave from Wilderness lodge at 7:30 - that is why I am telling people to meet at 7:00. We are celebrating my DSister's bday - 49, DH birthday - 46, DD birthday - 23 and one other person's bday who will be joining us for her 50th!!! I am a summer baby so no chance on that one. Being a native NYer could not do Florida in July - ugh!! Hope it is you commanding our 'ship'...so now we are still looking for 5 others to come and party with us!! Happy Day!

I have a Wishes cruise booked for 24th September which I am going to cancel. Anyone looking to book one for that date? Maybe a way can be worked out for me to transfer it into your name? (Anyone any idea how to do that?)

Drop me a PM if interested.

 

[GGOOFY1]

Hi Sarah,
I had two cruises booked and was trying to transfer one to someones else name. They will not do it. If you find someone who wants the cruise, you have to go to the marina and check them in. The only way to get your name off is to cancel the cruise.
Good Luck
