Illuminations Ressie ???

[magiroux]

Well, after going back in forth I have decided to see if I can snag an Illuminations Cruise for my stay(July 10-24)

My first day of calling will be 4/11, this Easter Sunday. Do the phone lines open at 7:00AM on weekends/holidays also??

Since it is just me and my DD (8) this trip I will be looking for new friends to share with us. If I am unsuccesful for my entire trip I will be looking for new friends to share with me on the July Cruise Thread.

Thanks

The phones are answered at 7am everyday. Be sure to start calling about 6:55am just to be safe.

FYI, When you call and if the illuminations cruise is booked already, ask about the wishes cruise. Good Luck

And if you can get more then one person calling...say maybe on a cell phone do it...the more trying the better...

Good Luck..

I called on a Sunday for mine and was able to get it. I suspect fewer people were willing to get up early on a Sunday. Good luck!

DW and I booked the breathless for June 24th. That was all that was left and I started calleing at 6:50 in morning. Good luck.

We were lucky enough to get one of the pontoon boats for our upcoming trip. However, we had four people calling (two land phones and two cell phones) starting at 6:50 a.m.
I asked for the Illuminations cruise and the nice reservationist said that it had been reserved. She suggested the pontoon boat. Make sure that you ask for it as well. Thanks to her suggestion, we get to go!

I agree. It's easier to score a cruise if you can call on a Saturday or Sunday morning. Works for other hard to get reservations (like Chef's Table at V&A or CRT Breakfast), too.
