Welcome back to planDisney, Jennifer! We always appreciate our loyal fans!
Booking a
Fireworks Specialty Cruise is one way to make your trip a blast! For the ultimate indulgent experience, you can charter the Grand 1 Yacht, accomodating up to 18 guests; or for a more intimate family gathering, I recommend a pontoon boat, holding up to eight people. Either way, you'll be treated to a unique view of
Disney Enchantment while sailing around the Seven Seas Lagoon!
During the fireworks show, synchronized narration and music streams through the boat's speakers, helping to immerse you in the moment. Your captain will also stock a cooler with sodas and water and have some light snacks available (Disney brand packaged pretzels, popcorn, and candy) onboard. You are more than welcome to bring your own food. When I called to inquire about booking a cruise for my upcoming trip, they told me that I could bring a birthday cake (
Amorette's Patisserie makes the best, in my opinion) and extra beverages, including alcohol, as long as they aren't in glass containers. This is one occasion where boxed wine is perfectly acceptable!
These cruises are very popular and fill up quickly. You'll want to be on the phone at 7:00 AM EST the day your booking window opens, which is 60 days before check-in for guests staying in a Walt Disney World Resort hotel; the phone number for
Enchanting Extras is (407) 939-7529. Make sure to mention if you are an Annual Passholder or Disney Vacation Club Member for a discount. Another tip: let them know if you are celebrating anything, and they'll decorate with balloons and a banner.
I hope this is an experience your family will never forget, Jennifer! See ya real soon!
