I guess TheDisneyThree and I both got extremely lucky.

I called it the Backlot Express Lounge like

I called it the Backlot Express Lounge like DisneyCrazy said to, but it does show up on MDE as Rebel Lounge. Mine is for May 16th 4pm.

Did you catch the name of the person who booked yours?

I was told they were calling it the backlot express lounge. Shows up in their system but still not available for the entire time frame.

Cm told me walk up. Asked for supervisor. Told it would be bookable today but having systems issues.

 

[THEDISNEYTHREE]

Congrats The Disney Three. I am sorry so many folks are having trouble.

Thank you for sharing to call it the Backlot Express Lounge. Perhaps I got the same agent as you. It seems many are not booking it yet. I wish for everybody else and hope the rest of the cm's start booking it!

System issues at Disney? What?

I tried and was told it's walk up too. I told them I knew someone who had booked it and they asked me for their res number
So frustrating!

 

[lovethattink]

No luck, she tried every date and nothing showed up.

I am sorry I did not. I was busy turning my volume back up on my phone. Mine was a gentleman.

Happy May the 4th! I'm getting ready to head to DHS with my mom. Should make it there right before opening. I'll try and take pictures of the 4th merchandise as well.

Good luck with the Rebel Hangar...I think I'm going to wait on that one.

 

[Felipe4]

Now for the excruciating 30 minute subway ride when I'll be unable to call...

 

[HCinKC]

My total call was 19 minutes which included the survey. The girl knew what I wanted. She said her system called it "Rebel Lounge", and she could not book it yet. It was showing walk up only. She encouraged me to call back later though.

Ugh they are releasing the magic bands today.... was hoping to get one at SWW

 

[DisneyCrazy123]

My agent was a woman and I don't recall her name either. Sorry.

 

[slaveone]

Must be a loaded day with dpb. Very unusual to have so many posts so early.

Me too

 

[prgal0715]

Held for half an hour and was told it's not bookable, though it did show up in the system. I will not get discouraged; the same thing happened when I tried to book FTF!

BTW - for those of you who have gotten through, have you used regular dining or special dining events? TIA!

 

[BobaFettFan]

Told again: no dice. Now to refresh parks blog, the donald express backlot lounge page, and this website!

I was just told that it's open for booking bit nothing available for my date...
