Official Star Wars Weekends 2014 Tips and Tricks

[denneg]

After an hour on hold, I was able to book both - dinner at H&V on 5/17 and breakfast at Sci-Fi on 5/23. Of course now I'm second guessing my date choices and may call back to make a second dinner reservation...

My DBF was on the phone for an hour and we got F! Dinner at 6:05 on the 17th. He asked the CM if everyone else was calling for this and she said its extremely busy with people calling for this! Kind of stinks it's 2 credits. Wish we could have done breakfast too. Good luck everyone and hang in there!

FINALLY got reservations. 6/13 @1055am. May have to sneak in an extra day on June 8th now just to catch the parade that I'll miss. Nothing was available after 11am by the time I called

 

[stasijane]

1 hour 13 minutes. I am not giving up!

 

[ratlenhum]

I hung up and called the mainline and has a CM booking me in 2 minutes! Got breakfast and dinner on May 31st!!!

 

[spritna]

is it just me or does anybody else think the older Mark Hamill looks a tiny bit like Meatloaf (the singer)?

 

[OhioStateBuckeye]

If your still on hold try hotel reservations on the other line and have them transfer you. Not sure if it was a fluke but my friend got right through

 

[Vala]

I better hide that phone bill in a place where my boyfriend will never every find it.

Through, reservations done. 1 hour 23 minutes.

After the CM did some searching on the system, finally got the dinner booked for 5:20 on 5/16. Had to do the fantasmic package as it wasn't coming up without it, even tho I'm gonna wait for the 10:30 show so I can get a good spot for the fireworks. Ok now to try and get some sleep

Heard people were having luck calling the Pirates League number as well with less than a 10 min wait. 407-WDW CREW. Might be worth giving it a try if you have another phone handy

I was on hold with disney dining for 56 minutes when I called Pirates League. Got thru and made my ressies in under 5 minutes. Dinner May 16 at HV and Breakfast at SciFi May 17. We're all set!

Called that pirate line number, got through in 2 min and took 5 min to book. My hubby was still on hold on the other phone when I got off 1 hour. He was happy to hang up. Got breakfast for
May 29th at 8am. It's a Thursday. Kind of nice also that will get in before park opens.

I finally got through, my original May 31st Saturday Hollywood and Vine 5 pm meal was already switched to "Jedi Mickey Character Dining" but the lady didn't know that until she went in to cancel it to make sure I didn't have duplicates.

I have May 31st Saturday Hollywood and Vine 5 pm "Jedi Mickey Character Dining"

AND

June 1st Sunday Galactic SciFi Breakfast at 8am!


Woot Woot!

Headed to work... see ya! and Good Luck to those still on hold!

Glad everyone is getting thru...got our breakfast ressies at 8am on June 1st. I wasn't even gonna try because my kids are old now and not that interested in characters but I'll keep the reservation just for the atmosphere of it all.
It'll probably be the most expensive breakfast I've had (closely followed by Cindy's Royal Table)

Congrats 55 minutes on hold for me.

There's going to be a number of us in for dinner on the 16th - we're booked at 4.50 PM.

I am happy to report that we got dinner reservations at H&V @ 5:00 on Friday, May 23rd! I was on hold for over an hour but we got our reservation

 

[figmentvinny]

I used this info and was with an agent in less than 60 seconds. And this is after hanging up on my 50 minute wait call just to try it. CM knew exactly what I was looking for!



Edit: this is how it shows on my Disney experience: Hollywood & Vine Star Wars Dinner F! 1st Show-2DDP

I LOVE YOU!!!! I just landed a 9:10 ADR for Friday May 16th. I will be naming my next child after you!!!!
