Pirates & Pals After Aloha Show

[AldenBob]

Pirates & Pals happened to be booked the day we were hoping. It is available on an alternate date but we are booked for the 5:15 Aloha Dinner Show. Would there be enough time to get from the Aloha Show back to MK without rushing to make the fireworks cruise?

The cruise is from the Contemporary Resort. It really depends on what time the Pirates and Pals event starts that evening. It doesn't take long to get from Poly to CR. Personally, I wouldn't do it. I would be completely stuffed from dinner at Spirit of Aloha to enjoy the dessert buffet at P&P, which is enormous. IMHO, I would pick one or the other event. We've done the early Spirit of Aloha and then went over to MK for some rides and the fireworks.

As mentioned above, it all depends on the time you are to meet at the Contemporary. You don't meet on the dock, you meet inside the building in a convention room where the desserts, Smee and Hook will be. Also where you'll meet your Pirate, Patch.

Have you checked to see of the Aloha show is available on the day the cruise isn't?

It appears the meeting place is at the Contemporary Lobby at 8:35 PM. I can't find anywhere that shows the ending time of the Aloha Show and the travel time from the Polynesian to the Contemporary. We'll have our DD (9) and DS (4) in tow and don't want to feel rushed.

We had all FP+ and dinner reservations set at the 180 day & 60 day points. Disney recently changed the Magic Hours for a number of our days - now were are try to rearrange a couple days and fill. We already have the Aloha Show booked but were hoping to add the Pirates & Pals somewhere in our trip. Hoping it fit after the Aloha Show.

THANKS - The cruise is fully booked on our first choice of days & was hoping to fit it somewhere during our trip. The great thing about Disney is that if you miss something this year it gives you a reason to book for next year. Thanks for all your help.
