BOG new test lunch res online?

[mgrayar]

No when I logged to the web page for BOG I put in my reservation number.

it is still your linked ap that makes it open for the next 7 days. I promise.

You should also be able to see the dates of your reservation. If not, you have a problem.

I think in my case. I was able to get a reservation in September. So the reservation number that is in there is the September one and there is no place to change it. So it doesn't have my December number.

you need to setup a separate account using an alternative email. Then you can login with that email and your December reservation number. I actually had to do the same thing due to a split reservation.

Just back from Disney, and wanted to share my BOG experience with you.

I had booked our reservation online using the MB # that starts with a 4, just like all of you are doing now.
I had no problem booking, or even changing things a few times.

We were a party of 2, and we had pre-selected our meals at the time we booked. 2 steak sandwiches, one without the sauce.
I was so nervous that something would go wrong......that we would arrive and be turned away because we didn't actually get an email invite to be a tester.

On the day of our reservation, we arrived a few mins into our arrival time window.
The standby line was loooooooooooooong.
We stepped to the left of the standby line, where there is a little stone check in area that is right next to stroller parking.
I gave my name, was greeted with a smile and told to proceed forward and Tyler would meet us.
Oh, that walk past all of those folks waiting in standby was fun!!! However, we did get a few dirty looks too
When we approached the castle entrance Tyler came out and greeted me by name!! He escorted us in and handed us over to a lady on the left who had a small portable scanner and a small desk area.She confirmed that we had pre-ordered our meal, read our selections off to us and since everything was correct, she scanned my Magic Band, gave us a receipt and told us to go find a table anywhere we would like and our food would be brought to us !
Easy, peasey!

We really wanted to sit in the West Wing but no tables were available there, so we selected a table in the main ballroom. DH went to get our drinks while I sat and marveled at the beauty of this restaurant!
Then it dawned on me............"WAIT!! How would they know where we are sitting? I was not given a little red plastic rose???".

Dh went to ask someone, and came back smiling. He was told that because my band had been scanned, my band talks to the kitchen, who talks to the server, and tells them where we are. So it was very important that my band remain at the table until our food arrived. Technology is amazing isn't it??

In about 10-12 minutes our food came out, exactly what we ordered, even no sauce for me. Everything was great!!

The one down side to pre-ordering is that we did not get to experience the ordering kiosks or the wall of armored men who whisper to each other.
So, if that part interests you, you may not want to pre-order your meal.

I hope all of you enjoy your BOG meal as much as we did !!!
Any questions? Ask away

Great info here, thank you for sharing.

I also had to set up with an alternative email address because we had two separate reservation numbers. It worked out very well though.

The system will only allow you to get a fast pass for the first 7 days you're there. BUT if you have a long stay, and want to go on your FP later in your vacation, wait until you are there. Log in from your phone or iPad or whatever and pick one up just a few days in advance. I did that just three days in advance and still had three windows to choose from for seating for lunch.

Good luck!

I set up another email address and can now see my dec reservation but like everyone else nothing available right now.

I mentioned this earlier - once you're there, the window is a rolling 7 days so it avances a day for each day of your stay.

What time did you have reservations? We had a 1315 reservation with a pre-ordered meal but were standing in a FP line in the room with the whispering armored men. Granted it moved much faster than the standby, but I was like I thought I just pay and sit? Lol. We first ended up in the main ballroom but our host was able to find us a table in the west wing.

Thanks so much for posting! Good to hear it all went ok. Makes me a little less nervous for my own FP reservation in four days!!!!

I'm just finding this thread. I made. fP+ reservation a few weeks back for our trip next week. Preordered meals and everything. Now I don't remember the exact window time. Is there a way to look up all the information? It's not listed as an ADR.

Go back in the BOG website where you made the reservation and there are links to view and change anything.

Good. I was wondering if it worked for you. I have a feeling that our chances are dicey at best though. I wonder how many true invites they send out.

If this one doesn't work for December I'm hoping the other one that is walking one day at a time will get me one. Will have to wait until last week of November to se if it walks into December.

yes. I think it will work for you. I'm pretty sure that was what the CM meant above about "once you are there". I think once someone checks in the site will work like yours as long as they have active tickets linked.

The fact you had a previous stay and an active AP linked means you will be able to book even before checkin.

Just my guess, but it makes sense in my head.

What is the one walking one day at a time?

Our arrival window was 11:40 - 11:55.

And I don't know if this makes a difference or not, but there was no one either right before us, or right after us in the FP line that I could see.
