Disney's Jungle Boat Cruise goes Christmas: Jingle Cruise

This fall, I am living out my boyhood dream, working as a contractor for Disney Imagineering on all sorts of secret things I can't mention here. But last week, I previewed materials for a new project that I can mention, because it's now official: the Jungle Boat Cruise at Disneyland and Walt Disney World is getting a Christmas show called "Jingle Cruise," with new jokes, decor, and awesome. The description on the official announcement is kind of sparse, but as someone who is privy to inside knowledge, I can attest that this will be amazing.

In this new seasonal storyline of the attraction, the Skippers have grown homesick for the holidays, so they've added holiday cheer to the Jungle Cruise queue and boathouse with decorations that have been mailed to them from home (plus a few they've created themselves). The Skippers have also added a slew of new jokes to their tours that are the perfect way to get guests in the holiday spirit. Additionally, Jungle Cruise boats have been renamed with the holidays in mind, and if guests listen carefully, they may hear a holiday-themed radio broadcast playing in the background.
