Be Our Guest Lunch FastPass Thread [PLEASE read the FAQs in the first post!]

Wow. That sounds awful.

I wonder if it has anything to do with the tickets they are handing out now? Maybe they gave out too many for one time period or something. What time was your FP+?

Our return time was 1:05 pm to 1:35 pm. Got there at 1:15.

Somewhere in between midnight and 6am! I booked the 23rd today. I happened to wake up at 1am and tried to book then and it wasn't available yet. I woke up again at 4am and it WAS available. Lots of time slots available, so you'll be fine if you wait until the morning.

Thanks, I'm on Pacific time so it's easy for me to do midnight or 1am but not 6am!

I have a large group-- 8-- and even though my parents have their own reservation number, I control them on FP+ because they're not at all tech savvy. How does this work?? When I go into the system it's only letting me book for myself and the person I'm in the room with. There are LOADS of surprises in store for my parents on this trip because it's their 40th anniversary and I don't want them going in and actually SEEING our plans if they create an account. Is there anything I can do??

you need the reservation numbers of all the rooms in your party, and make completely separate reservations for each room. It will give you times when you go in to select a lunch fast pass, and you can just refresh at the top of the page to try and get an overlapping time to the reservation you have already made for yourself.

I have all their reservation numbers-- but I don't see any place to input them. It's just letting me sign in with my info. Grrrr.

You'll have to use a different email address for each separate reservation. It can be an email that belongs to another person in your party, as long as that email has never been used on the Disney website. Or you can make up a couple alias emails for yourself and use those. It doesn't matter who you control on the MDE FP+ - that is unrelated to the BoG FP+.

Edited to add - see the first post in this thread, specifically the section entitled: How do I make bookings for my whole group if we are in different rooms with different reservation numbers?
The first post is your friend.

Just made my FP+ for September 24. Thanks to this thread for the tip about refreshing to get new times. The initial times they gave us wouldn't' have worked at all, but I ended up with something perfect!

Can't wait!

What time does this open up on the 27th day? i.e. 12:01am or 6am?

also can I make FP+ for 2 days during my trip (each 27 days out) or can you only have 1 reservation linked to each hotel reservation?

TIA!

I went to the first page and it is AWESOME!!! After months of searching for tips on how to get my 12 digit reservation # I FINALLY found a useful tip. The "Make a payment" trick worked for me. Even thought I'm 106 days out from my stay I was able to log into the BOG booking site. Now I just have to wait until the booking window opens up

 

[nagshead]

Im booking ours now and it's giving me the option for an appetizer? If you are on the meal plan and this is counting for counter service don't select appetizer right?

 

[magictam2]

I actually got the email with the fast pass offer. Have never received the email before so I'm quite excited. Mind you I already have a fast pass date selected. Which I will be changing tomorrow because finally the date I really want will be open. But it still exciting to get Disney mail.

 

[nagshead]

Yay!!! All booked for the 24th!!

Right, your counter service meal credit won't cover an appetizer.

Would it if you were on the DxDP??

I read the first post, but I didn't think it was clear about differentiating between groups linked together through MDE vs in different rooms. Sorry.

 

[jcarwash]

I think no, because BOG lunch is in quick service mode and so it's still a quick/counter service credit, which under deluxe is still entree and dessert and drink like the other plans.

Got a sept 25th fast pass today!

 

[bigsis1970]

just want to double check they only release one day at a time .. it's not like on the first day of your trip you can book for the 7th day out.. .. like above she said she booked for 9/25 my trip starts 9/26 but I want lunch for 9/27 and 10/1 so I need to wait for Sunday 8/31 to book 9/27 and then Thurs 9/4 to book 10/1 .. right??

Yes your correct they only release 1 day at a time! But just so you know you can ONLY book 1 BOG FP+ lunch for your stay!! So you'll have to decide which day you want to go, either 9/27 or 10/1.

But, yes for 9/27 you'll book this Sunday 8/31.. Or if you want 10/1, you'll book it on Thursday 9/4
Oh and your only able to book 1 FP+ lunch on the website for the first 7 days of your trip, anything past you'll have to do it at your Disney hotel.
