Super Dissapointed- Droid Depot Reservations

[lauris87]

So I am trying to get reservations for Thanksgiving week for Droid Depot. I understand it’s a super busy time, but how is it that every single time slot for the days I will be there is booked??? They released appointments for the final day of my trip this morning (Nov. 26th)… I was on at 5am central time and checked, that day is entirely booked already. Not even one slot open. I will have two very dissapointed boys. We have rescheduled our trip twice during covid, and they have been saving up their gift cards for THREE years for this experience. Do you think walk-up will be available that week with it being a holiday week? I’m just so beside myself about all of this . I even called Disney yesterday and waited 60 minutes to talk to someone about this and she was NOT helpful…. was hoping for a bit of pixie dust. Yeah, not happening.

I feel your pain. We're going the week after Thanksgiving. I was on at midnight last night trying to book either lightsabers or droids, but there's zero availability for the entire duration of my trip. And then when I was on at 6 this morning to book ADR's, I kept getting errors when I hit "reserve". So all I have to show for my efforts is a lousy night of little sleep. Guess I'll just keep checking. Hooray.

The week after Thanksgiving isn’t even released yet though right? I can’t even click on those dates for Droid Depot.

Oh never mind about my last comment. I forgot how the whole week becomes available starting on the first date of your package. Wow, that’s insane!

May be some odd times, but you can probably walk in for Droid Depot. Easiest option is first thing in the morning or late in the evening, but you will likely walk by a few times during the day, so if you see a short line for walk ups, jump in line. Expect 20-30 minutes max for the experience.

Would have been nice if the cast member told me that when I called. She had zero information for me

Droid Depot and Savi's reservations open at midnight - ADR's open at 6am. Both are EASTERN time. This made for very little sleep when I was trying to get a Savi's and dining reservations.

We are going the same week. I find it very odd that there are reservations available nearly EVERYDAY leading up to and including rhe 19th but nothing after that (for Droids). I’m of the belief that reservations for Droids haven’t actually opened yet. (I’ve seen forums about it being delayed sometimes.) same with CRT - it didn’t open immediately and we got reservations a few days after the 60day window due to new (or more) slots opening. But I haven’t seen a single person that has a droid reservation for thanksgiving week yet (and I say this from several Disney groups on Facebook.) maybe I’m wrong…but maybe I’m not! Haha

Good luck!

Check ASAP, times opened up this morning for that week!

Sorry for you.

Droid depot times drop at midnight. If you haven’t yet sign up for a reservation watch. In our case we had reservations for 2 days and we just dropped a few since we’re refining our plans, others will do the same especially the week of your trip

I'm looking for an appointment for 1 for the weekend after Thanksgiving (25th-29th) and there are SO MANY reservations available for Droid Depot. I could literally choose almost any day/time during that time. I'm kind of surprised at so much availability.
