Yahoo! I am 24 days away from my next Disney vacation! The family is getting very excited.
Our Magic Bands are arriving today in the mail. I feel very positive all my ducks are in a row.
This morning I booked our Fastpasses for lunch at Be Our Guest Restaurant. This trip we were very lucky because we received free dining with our vacation package. I can't think of a better quick service value then to eat lunch at Be Our Guest.
However, Be Our Guest can be a tricky lunch to snag for so many reasons.
Not a Table Service meal- No reservations needed. That should be easy right? Nope, at one time park guests would line up for hours early in the morning to eat there for lunch. No thank you! We don't have time for that!
Fastpass only- The rumor is it is Fastpass only, eliminating the long waits. You might be like me scratching your head... huh?! Fastpass pass only, but I can't find in the Magic Kingdom Fastpass selection. Correct! There is a seperate website you can use to secure your Fastpass and order your food in advance. Some guests will receive an email invite from Disney to use this site. Thanks to the internet, regardless if you receive the email or not you can still reserve your Fastpass by going directly to the site.
Here are my easy instructions to secure your Fastpass in advance:
Go to https://beourguestlunch.disney.go.com/ Do this 27 days from the day you want to dine. This seemed to be the magic number for me.
Login with Disney user name and password
Next you be asked to enter in a 12 digit confirmation number. It can be found a few places- hover over the Check in online in the my Disney Experience site. It can also be found in My Memory Maker. I have also seen this number on some of our other dining reservations.
Proceed with making your Fastpass+ reservations.
2 return times will show up. If you don't find the time that you need keep refreshing. I did this until I found the perfect time.
Good luck!
Our family enjoyed last year's dinner at Be Our Guest. I think the lunch reservation is worth the hassle of planning ahead for it. It is definitely worth dining in Beast's castle some point in life, right?
