Mobile order questions

[CeCe0906]

Do you have to be in the same park that you want the mobile order from to place the order? We will park hop after AK closes, and would want to eat dinner after that. Can I place an order while waiting on the bus?
I've heard that you often wait a while when you say I'm here, should I say that earlier than actually being at the restaurant?

Yes, I believe many will order from their hotels in the morning in preparation for lunch. I believe you pay for it when you order and if that is the case, if you order, pay for it, you should be able to order from anywhere. As for “I’m here”, the feedback, I got was tapping it when you are a few min away or walking there was the norm. There wasn’t usually much wait after that.

Thanks, it's all really changed since I was there. When we went with our kids 20+ years ago, when we were hungry we just stopped at a restaurant, never made a reservation before this trip. But we're never done the special character bfast or Cinderella castle dinner either. I think I remember the castle being decorated for the 25th Anniversary!

Unless they've changed things in the last few weeks, you can, in fact, order from anywhere. I don't think they charge you until you hit the "I'm here, prepare my food" button, as you have the option to cancel anytime up to that point. Generally we've waited 5-10 minutes once we hit that button. I'd order on the bus but wait until I was at the park or hotel to hit "I'm here..."

Yes that would be more accurate. I think you can literally order from anywhere even from another state LOL. Thanks!
