    Just because you can't do everything doesn't mean you shouldn't do something.

    Fireworks Dessert Party with Plaza Garden Viewing?

    We've done the Plaza view dessert party a few times to avoid crowds. We often go to WDW in early December and we don't buy MVMCP tickets, so there are only three nights a week when we and the rest of the non-MVMCP guests can see HEA. Needless to say, it makes for an very unpleasantly crowded...

    Phone Charging Stations

    Good advice about portable chargers. In the absence of official charging stations, there are a variety of places that you can plug a charging cord into the wall. Some that I've used and seen others using - upstairs at Columbia Harbor House in MK, upstairs at Pizza Planet at DHS, and along the...

    How early do they let you in?

    Just consider that, if you drive, you'll have to park at the Transportation & Ticket Center and wait for a ferry or monorail to get to the MK gates. If you take a bus, you get dropped off just outside the gates. It could be a tossup about which way is faster.

    Is it possible to do a "walk up" to Crystal Palace before MK opens

    You're supposed to have a valid ADR in order to get into MK before park opening. That being said, there have been several times when I have gone to the designated turnstile for those with ADRs and not been asked to show any proof that I had one. I just said I had an ADR (which I did) for a...

    BOG Lunch FP+

    The BoG FP+ system will only let you book in advance for the first 7 days of your reservation. On day one of your stay, you can book for day 8, on day 2 you can book for day 9, etc. Note that you can only hold one BoG FP+ at a time. Once you have used that first FP+, you can try for another...

    Lunch at Be Our Guest Question

    You won't be able to make a FP+ til you're 27 days out from the first day of your reservation. If you try before that, it will show your dates but will says that there are no FP+ available. It doesn't mean that there really aren't any - it just means that you're checking too soon and need to...

    BOG Lunch FP+

    The standard now seems to be 27 days out from the first day of your reservation. And all the dates won't open up at once - it's day by day as each day comes within 27 days. If you try to make a FP+ farther out than that, it will take you the dates of your stay but will say that there are no...

    How far out can a FP+ be made for Be our Guest Lunch?

    It will only give you two time choices at once, but that doesn't mean those are the only two available. If you don't like what comes up first, try refreshing your screen. Oftentimes, you'll get different choices each time you refresh.

    Lunch at Be Our Guest Question

    It's looking for the 12 digit Disney reservation number, which has only numbers and no letters. I don't know if the DVC reservation number is different or not. If it is, you should be able to call and get the 12 digit number.

    Lunch at Be Our Guest Question

    The system is very glitchy, and this error message seems to be fairly common. Others have reported that they just logged off and returned to the site later, and when they tried again, things were fine.

    Lunch at Be Our Guest Question

    The BoG FP+ system, such as it is, only allows you to book in advance for the first 7 days of any stay. If you want a FP+ for a later day, you'll have to wait til you get to WDW. On day one of your stay, you could book a FP+ for day 8, and on day 2 for day 9, etc. There will almost...

    How far out can a FP+ be made for Be our Guest Lunch?

    The BoG FP+ will only recognize the first part of your split stay, and there's no way to tell it otherwise. What has worked is to set up a new account with Disney with an email that has never been used with them before and link it to the second reservation. Then go to the BOG lunch website and...

    Finally - BE OUR GUEST Lunch FP+

    Just curious - what problems are you having logging into the FP+ website? Maybe we can help.

    Finally - BE OUR GUEST Lunch FP+

    Not sure how long you're staying, but the site seems to allow FP+ to be made only for the first 7 days of your stay, and then it moves up a day at a time. If your departure day is day 8, then you couldn't get a FP+ for that day until day 2. Hope that makes sense. If your stay isn't that long...

    Lunch at Be Our Guest

    The dates don't open up consistently at 30 days or any other number of days. It seems to be quite arbitrary lately. Disney will open up the dates to a certain point, maybe 3-4 weeks away, and then won't move that date for some time. It isn't a rolling date, like the 180 days to make regular...

    VALUE RESORTS BUS TRANSPORTATION

    I think it's important to note that the resorts don't have any control over their bus service - it isn't as if each resort has a fleet of buses assigned to it. Buses are all dispatched from a central location, and whether a resort's bus service is good or bad on a particular day or week really...

    FP+ at BoG

    I booked the first FP+ a few weeks before our trip - I don't remember exactly. After we ate there the first time, we decided we wanted to go again, so I went on the site and booked another FP+ for a couple days later, and then repeated that again. For the second and third FP+, I had several...

    FP+ at BoG

    I probably should have added that the IT people don't know any more about the BoG FP+ than the regular CMs, but at least they tend to admit it. I'm sorry you're having so many problems with the site and can't seem to find a solution. I'd be willing to bet that, even if you can't make a BoG FP+...
