Be Our Guest Lunch Fastpass

[ashleighbass06]

You need the reservation number shown on the magic band page of the MDE site. 12 digits, no letters.

Thank you!

Was just able today, for the first time, to get a Fastpass+ for BOG on June 12. I've been trying every day for about two weeks, and up until today, got the "no fastpasses are available" message. Did not get an invite, just went to the BOG fastpass website and logged in like I was logging in to MDE. The times available tended to be early (10:30-ish) or late (1:30-ish) but once I reserved one time, I clicked to modify and got a much better set of times to choose from the second time around.

On April 3rd I made a lunch ADR and pre-ordered our meal. It occurred to me today that I never received an email confirming our lunch. I called Disney dining. She said there is no way for her to check to see if we do have a confirmed reservation. She said it was in the testing stage so she has no idea. We have to go to concierge on our arrival date to check on the status?? I said in other words I won't know until 2 days before the reservation if I actually have one. Anyone else have this same problem? I did try to sign in to www.beourguestlunch.disney.go.com and it said the guest is already registered. I assume that's a good sign. SMH.

I plan to print my reservation details from online and take it with me since that is the only confirmation we have.

I was able to book June 9th without an invitation. I think if I get an invitation I will try to get another one for a different day. This way, if the June 9th one doesn't work because I wasn't "invited" I should be okay with the second one. And if both of them work we'll eat there twice!

FYI- You need an invite to make this reservation now. We were just there and at the counter the CM wanted to see our email invite. The CM articulated that guests were doing this without being sent an invite. I guess even though guests can make the reservation they are checking.

Thanks for the report.

You'd think Disney IT could just limit access to those actually invited. Allowing people to book things, then having a surprise at BOG isn't great customer service. The whole FP+ rollout has been a mess.

That said, I still nabbed one for 5/24. If it works, great, if not oh well.

Just got a FP for June 11th! I'm super excited because I have been checking numerous times a day for a dinner ADR since 180 days out with no luck!

I got in but when I go back it doesn't give me any option to edit my meal or view it, the only option available is to pick another date. Does this mean I don't really have a fast pass? I'll be ok if it doesn't work because I mannaged to get a dinner reservation on our last night.

I was told by a CM today. She said I didn't need to be invited but I needed to book through www.beourguestlunch.disney.go.com and that we needed to be staying on property. That's why when booking it asks for you confirmation number.

As for the PP that wanted to cancel their dinner ADR, I wouldn't. When you get to the resort have concierge check on you lunch FP. If it's there then I would cancel dinner. I believe that lunch and dinner are vastly different experiences. I've had dinner there and it was very good. Lunch seems to be the same old glop you can get anywhere in the parks. I say that and hope my lunch FP goes through

had the braised pork for lunch in October (used FP+, no invite) it was wonderful, best meal of the trip. was not the "same old glop" you can get anywhere in the parks.

It is not the same stuff the other places have for lunch. It was a nice change. I was able to get something that was healthy and very good. I usually don't like healthy. Haha

 

[HopperFan]

No way same old! Show me real French Onion Soup, Quiche and a fresh greens salad at any other counter service in MK. DS loves the pork, reminds us of CRT Major Domo pie minus the crust. And if you have DDP between food, atmosphere and your food brought to your table it's a great QSDP value! Have eaten there 5 times and will always be a must do for us.

Didn't receive email invite but used suggested link. Several weeks ago our June dates came up but no reservations available. Today I was able to choose an arrival time. THE PROBLEM is that only 8 names of the 12 on our resort reservation came up, and I could only order for 8. Has anyone else had experience with a larger party? Originally we had two separate ressies (for 8 and 4), but we were on wait list and got upgraded to a 3 BR villa for 12 with one new res. #. I thought they might be going off the original one for 8, but the names on BOG site include names from both. There was no opportunity to enter res. # or change party size. Afraid I wouldn't get another chance, I went ahead and signed up.

I received my FP invite to BOG yesterday, so I immediately clicked on the link to book and it says there are no more reservations left. I called WDW Dining and the lady pretty much told me I was out of luck. I was pretty bummed since DH will refuses to wait in that long line for lunch. Maybe next time?!

When will you be there?

 

[tlynk]

May 13-18

May 13-18

Those are my dates. I didn't get an invite. Do you think it's because I used a TA?

 

[cantoine]

Super excited!!!!! I logged into the Be Our Guest Fast Pass+ selection and there it was!!!!! I was so happy. We HAD dinner reservations but it was for 9:15pm and with the little ones we didn't want to eat that late. My DH said we could do lunch there instead but after seeing pictures of the lines said if we couldn't get a fast pass then it was a no go. So this was a blessing!!!! I was shocked because I didn't get an invite to my email the way I was told by several CM's that I needed one. Either way I am super happy

Don't give up. If the site is saying that there is nothing at all for all the dates of your stay, that probably means that those dates aren't open to you yet for whatever reason. Even with the invitation, there seems to be no logic to when times open up, and apparently it's different for different people. Some people can make FP+ a month or more in advance, and others seem to have to wait til within a week or so of their trip. Keep checking the site. When your dates do open up, you'll probably have a choice of times for each day. The BoG FP+ process just isn't that well known to the average WDW visitor, so there are nearly alwaye times available as long as your dates have opened up. And the WDW dining people don't have a clue about BoG FP+, since it's totally separate from the regular ADRs that show up in your MDE. Almost everything that's been reportedly said by CMs about the BoG FP+ has been wrong, according to the real world experience of the posters here.

I was just able to book June 13th.

I had been trying over the last few weeks, and kept getting all full, it just wasn't open yet.
