Wishes Cruise question

[DisneyNutzy]

I have a Wishes Premium Cruise booked in February leaving from the Grand Floridian Marina. We were told to be at the marina by 7:30 to depart by 8:00 PM. Wishes is not scheduled until 10:00 that evening. Has anyone taken this cruise and can advise me what to expect for the 2 hours prior to the show? Thanks.

Hi,

When I booked mine last week, I was told to call back 14 days prior to find out what time Wishes is scheduled for on my cruise night. Based on that time, the cruise will leave a half hour before, and we have to be at the marina a half hour before it leaves ( so an hour before Wishes starts). Hope that helps.

The Wishes show time changed for us as well. You'll probably want to confirm the time when you arrive. They may lock the time down 14 days out, but just in case...

Thanks! I was hoping we wouldn't be cruising in the dark for 2 hours.

No, you dont cruise around for 2 hours lol. Call a little befor eyou get there and even the same day as park hours are always subject to change.

Definitely confirm the time when you get there. I wanted to give you a heads up, too. Almost every night a party will come out to the dock where the resort launches (like the boat in the picture) pick up guests, and wait for the wishes cruise to pick them up. The launch dock is not the marina. The marina is where you'll see the Grand I yacht, a bunch of pontoon boats, and the little sea raycers.

I also have a Wishes cruise booked for Feb. Originally I was told 8:00 also. I called back yesterday and was told that it is now 10:00 so be there by 9:30.

Thanks for all the tips. Now I can re-do my itinerary for that day and spend more time in the park. Hope the kids can make it until 10!

I am a newbie, and I have a question about wishes. Not the boat ride. The show itself. Is it every evening? Or once a week? Where can I find show times for April 2006 . If that is possible? I appreciate your help!
