Who are the DISsers on the lookout for 6/13 reservations for Galactic and Jedi Mickey? There were a couple of you! I can PM you if I see anything! (And if I take an earlier Galactic, I'll gladly transfer my current one to one of y'all).

I'm on the lookout for a Galactic on the 13th or 14th. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!
 
I have a lot of reservations to cancel due to debating 2 different weeks to go during SWW and the late addition of my in-laws to the trip. Now that work has settled down (tax season is finally over) I have time to try to coordinate with someone for the following. All of the following reservations are for 4 people.

Sci-Fi Galactic Breakfast

Tues, May 26 8:05
Wed, May 27 8:05
Fri, May 29 9:10 - GONE
Sun, May 31 11:00
Tues, June 2 8:15
Fri, June 5 11:00

H&V Jedi Mickey w/Fantasmic

Tues, June 2 5:40 p.m.
Wed, June 3 5:45 p.m.

Awesome, worked like a charm!!!! Thank you for the ADR help!!!

Ok... help! What to do, what to do... There's a Galactic Breakfast available for the day I want, but for 4, not the 5 I need! Do I take it, and hope that I can somehow convince them to let in my 3 year old as well??

We've actually done this, it was for be our guest dinner and CRT, they was fine with it, and said it happens!
They just told us we may have a couple of minute extra wait due to getting the table ready.
 
Somebody is cancelling several reservations for May and June for Sci Fi and H&W on the May cancellation thread
 
I'm confused, I booked a standard room at CBR using an AP rate, didn't I? Were they never available or currently sold out? I'm starting to doubt my reservation is correct.

You should be fine the AP rates sold out really quick and there are a few popping up now. People are either canceling or Disney released another block of rooms.
 


I'm watching/stalking for a galactic breakfast on June 14th too. We have a party of 5, but would take 4, or even 3 if we could get it. Remaining optimistic.
 
Ok Star Wars fans I need a little help. I'll start by saying I'm super cheap and being out of a job right now isn't helping lol. I'm looking for some original trilogy as well as rebels tattoos or stickers for my magic band. And ideas? I looked on Amazon and they didn't really float my boat, but if you seen something from there post it. I e been to Walmart, not target yet, and Walmart in two stores had nothing sw related in the toy isle. I was looking there because I keep seeing there doc mcstuffins packs and hope to see a rebels one.

Any suggestions, any help would be great.

Party City has Rebels tattoos. It is one page with 16 images for 99 cents. At the store I went to, they were on an end cap (rather than in an aisle with a character marker), so it took me a smidge to find them. That store had all of the original SW party stuff on clearance, so if there had been any tattoos, they were gone when I looked.

I have seen original stickers at Michaels and Joann, Hobby Lobby probably has them, too...probably any craft store. I have also seen them at Hallmark. I recently saw them someplace else, but I am totally drawing a blank...
 
yulilin3, Can you add me to May 17th and DPPFTF for the same day? And can you post the link to the meetup thread?
 
completely unrelated, BUT is anyone going to the DISapalooza in December at Universal Studios?
 
So I think only my friends on here can truly understand the emotional roller coaster I just went on :crazy2: I've been trying for weeks to get an earlier Sci-fi Galactic Breakfast ADR for May 17th for the 4 of us. We got the premium ftf for that day :cloud9: but our current ADR will make us miss the parade :hourglass DS 7 loves Star Wars just like his mom :yoda: and I really want him to be able to experience it all on our very 1st and only SWW day. So through all of the great advice on here :thanks: I signed up for dining buddy and I got a text at 8:24pm :cool1: I immediately got on my iPad and was so excited... I couldn't believe it but it said there was an 8:15am for 4 :dogdance:that was perfect! I was already on the reservation page on another tab so I kept trying and nothing :scared: It was only 8:25pm! I went from being on the biggest emotional high to complete frustration :sad: I know it may seem silly to some but I figured some of you could relate to my excitement and then let down :badpc: lol. I'm not giving up hope yet though :flower1:

I had something similar to this happen to me and it took me a couple hours to realize the problem was I had a FP that was conflicting with the time. The adr would be available but when I would log in, it would disappear. I was so stressed out until I finally figured it out. Make sure that isn't what's happening to you. Maybe it's still there?

Yeah don't give up! You will likely find one as the day approaches. Also, can you possibly do the breakfast on a non SWW day? Even if you just popped into HS in the morning? That is what we are ending up doing to avoid missing the parade and things. I like to combine HS days with EP days since the walk/boat is so easy.
 
Thanks to another DISer, I finally got a Jedi Mickey dinner that will work for us! :goodvibes Since we got the DPFtF on the day we were going to do it originally (and it conflicted), I hung onto all my back-up scenarios until I got one that we could actually do without too much trouble. Since I have that now, I think I can finally part with all of my hoarded Weekend 1 & 2 H&V ADRs. Wanted to put it here first and I'll post it on the May dining cancellation thread a bit later tonight (well, any that aren't taken). I'll be on for awhile tonight if anyone wants to coordinate - just send me a PM.

All reservations are for 3 people (but probably would also work for 4, though I'm not 100% sure).

Friday, 5/15 at 5pm WITH Fantasmic (GONE to another DISer!)
Friday, 5/15 at 8:50pm
Saturday, 5/23 at 4:45pm
Sunday, 5/24 at 7:55pm
Monday, 5/25 at 4:55pm WITH Fantasmic

Hope someone can use these! :goodvibes

ETA - I think I'll wait until tomorrow night to put these on the main cancellation thread. Feel free to PM if you want one before that.

I think I might be! Being a huge Harry Potter fan (geez, at this point, what am I not a huge fan of?). I couldn't resist! Maybe now I'll finally get picked in the Olivander show! That will be my goal that night, that and to make myself sick off butterbeer.
 
Did you try to register by clicking the link in the text/email Dining buddy sends or by logging into MDE? I jut clicked the link and had success that time hit not when I tried to find it myself.
