Official Star Wars Weekends Thread Tips and Tricks 2015

Rebel Hangar is up on the dining page now. I don't remember seeing it before. It says to call or try online to make reservations. Online didn't work. It said to call.

I'm in the uk and can't book buy phone for another 3 hours!!
The menu looks great, right up my street I soooo need this in my life, but when would be the best time to book?

I guess when the dining lines open at 7am EST. You could try online first at 6am EST.

I thought it looked kind of cool. The descriptions were awesome. I hope they do this next year, since I'm not going this year.

Good luck to everyone in booking. Hopefully, booking will open tomorrow.

How do we print just our weekend? Whoops, thought I was quoting the great tags that Terri posted!

i dont look at myself as picky but i guess i am as i really eat what i know i like, and unless im splitting something with someone i wont try anything new. We had the ratatouille at YSH and it was actually really good

It doesn't mention prices at all! I know there was info before about it being under the $15 bracket but would be nice to know before booking although out of the sample menu, both being fussy eaters I think we would struggle to find something we like! x

The description is kinda vague along with the menu - Are there adult beverages? Cost? Is this still a quick service like place?

"Explore the bounty of sights and sounds as you pass through the entryway—framed by the remnants long-abandoned spacecraft and other vehicles. Then, get ready for Star Wars-inspired food and beverage offerings as only a galaxy far, far away can supply—such as:

• Spicy pork wings topped with piquillo pepper sauce
• Slider sampler featuring barbecue-braised brisket with coleslaw, and barbecued pulled chicken with arugula
• Hummus with red pepper coulis, black sesame dust and corn tortilla chips
• Key lime cake"

Saw Age of Ultron tonight, very good movie. They didn't play the Star Wars trailer with ours though. We kept waiting. They pretty much played everything else.

Ended up finding some fastpasses for Saturday the 16th last minute so I'm glad. My countdown app alerted me during the movie that we are now 2 weeks away from SWW!

Question for anyone who is up right now. I already have a dining reservation booked at Chef Mickey at 5:30pm on the day we want to go to Rebel Hanger. Can I book a table at Rebel Hanger at 4:30pm and then cancel Chef Mickey? Will they allow two reservations one hour apart on the same day?

 

[BobaFettFan]

Well looks like I'm staying up after all...

When you try to complete the reservation, it will tell you that you have a conflict. It will give you the opportunity to cancel the existing reservation to make room for the new reservation. The language at the bottom of that screen says that the existing reservation won't be cancelled until the new reservation is completed. So, yes, you can cancel Chef Mickey, but it won't be a separate step. It will be part of the reservation process for Rebel Hangar. No, it shouldn't let you have 2 reservations that close together.

I keep getting the message-unable to check for tables at this time.

 

[slaveone]

My guess is it won't go live till 7 on phone and 9 or so online when dpb hits but keep trying.

Same here. Also from the main dining page "we're sorry there's a problem searching for reservations at this time"

Will do!

 

[Tltorrez]

Typically when it's online like that, it's available before the phones. So keep trying but be prepared to call.

That's very possible.

When BOG went live, I was able to book it at 3am-ish online.
