It’s Time to Mingle and Jingle on the Jingle Cruise at the Magic Kingdom!
It’s an extra magical morning at the Magic Kingdom today! We were treated to a surprise with all the Christmas and holiday decorations going up a few days earlier than planned. But, we also journeyed over to Adventureland to learn that the Jungle Cruise has magically transformed into the Jingle Cruise!
The Jingle Cruise is the holiday time edition of the iconic Jungle Cruise attraction with an extra festive overlay. Guests will notice the change as the walk up to get in the queue where the “U” in Jungle is changed out for an “I” with a candy cane design.
Walt Disney Imagineers dreamed up the concept of the Jingle Cruise when thinking about how the skippers, just like the rest of us, get homesick for the holidays. To bring a touch of the holidays to them out there in the jungle, the skippers decorate their habitat to bring a touch of holiday joy to all.
When you ride the Jingle Cruise at the Magic Kingdom, not one holiday-themed detail is left untouched. All of the skipper’s boats have been renamed with a holiday name and colorful Christmas lights are seen throughout. In years past, names of the boats have included Garland Gertie, Icicle Irma, Poinsettia Sal, Yuelog Lolly, Candy Cane Connie, Brrr Bertha, and Mistletoe Millie.
And even though the Jungle Cruise transforms into the Jingle Cruise with a bit of tacky decor, the corny skipper jokes are still there to stay!
The Jingle Cruise holiday overlay will be offered at the Magic Kingdom until the end of the year. But, that’s not the only holiday happenings going on at the Magic Kingdom and Walt Disney World this year! Holiday-themed cavalcades featuring your favorite Disney pals and even Santa Clause will arrive at the Magic Kingdom this Friday (November 6), the EPCOT Festival of the Holidays will begin later this month, and so much more!
