Hey! So my dining dates are coming up soon and I need to solidify plans for our HS day. I'm trying to figure out when during the day to place our dining plans. Going the first week of December.
We will be doing the Lightning Lane options since there's so much to see, which I plan to look like this:
LL Single: RotR
LL Multipass ...
Tier 1 = Slinky
Tier 2 = TS Mania, Star Tours, Frozen Sing-Along
Rope Drop Millennium Falcon
I very much want to see Fantasmic too.

So, where would I put an Oga's Cantina reservation? We also are going to reserve a Storybook ADR but want to go back to HS in time for Fantasmic. Has anyone done this before? What was a good time to do it?

Thanks!

Edit: I will be staying at a WDW resort on property

Are you staying on-site? Slinky commonly books out 8-10 days before (right now it's an oddity with so many people moving/canceling trips with the storm later this week). Thrill data will help you track into your trip here.

I wouldn't book Oga until after lunch. The LL system doesn't allow ADR overlap during initial booking so it can screw with what LLs will be offered to you versus others.

Yes, I updated my post to include that. We are staying at AoA.

Our HS day is 4 days after our check in date, so considering we will be doing LL a week early, I should be okay.

Ooooh I didn't know LL and ADR were tied like that, thanks so much!
 
If you don't want the reservation to interfere with any other plans you could book Oga's for after Fantasmic as a nightcap. You would have to see the earlier show though, for the timing to work.
 

We are always get HS about 7:45 and get through security and in-line at the turnstiles since they are know. To open early. We head to slinky first and even if the line is back toward the entrance to Toy Story lane once they open the ride we are on in about 10 min. We then head to Millenium Falcon and have neve4 had a wait that early in the day. Something to consider since slinky is hard to get got ll. We then use our 3 early selections for the other rides we want to do

I don't think there are 2 Fantasmics in early December. In past years there is only one

Okay, I'll do that if we can't get LL for slinky!
