Welcome to planDisney, Cheri!
Doesn't life always seem a bit more magical when you have a Walt Disney World Resort vacation on the calendar? How exciting that you're just two months away from walking down Main Street, U.S.A. amidst a sea of balloons and bubbles as Cinderella Castle shines in the distance. While Magic Kingdom Park transports Guests to the world of yesterday, tomorrow, and fantasy, at Disney's Hollywood Studios you'll be exploring a galaxy far, far away during your visit to Black Spire Outpost in
Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge. I'll never forget the first time my husband and piloted the Millennium Falcon aboard Smuggler's Run and bopped to the tunes of DJ R-3X in
Oga's Cantina. It was a childhood dream come to life, and I still proudly display the souvenir porg cup I purchased at Oga's Cantina on my desk at work!
The atmosphere and
menu of Oga's Cantina make it wildly popular with Guests and one of Hollywood Studios' most sought-after dining reservations, so congrats on securing yours! As long as the reservation is linked to your My Disney Experience account, you've guaranteed entry for the number of Guests in your reserved party size even if all members of your party aren't directly linked to the reservation. Although not required, my husband and I do prefer to link each other's accounts to all of our dining reservations so that they appear in the upcoming plans of both of our My Disney Experience accounts. Conveniently, this process can easily be completed by using both the Walt Disney World website and the My Disney Experience app.
To link Guests to the reservation using the website, you'll select '
My Disney Experience' from the right corner of the blue header at the top of your screen and then scroll down until you see 'My Plans, Reservations and Tickets'. There you should see the reservation and the option to 'Update Guests'. When using the app, you'll select the three horizontal lines in the bottom right corner of the screen then scroll until you see 'Future Plans'. Once you've selected your Oga's Cantina reservation you can choose to 'Update Party'. If you don't see the Guests you are hoping to add to the reservation from the list of Guests available for the reservation, you'll need to add them to your Family & Friends List. If you're unsure of how to go about it, my pal Elaine helpfully explained the process for a Guest previously, and I encourage you to check out
her thorough response to their question.
planDisney Pixie Dust: While you're in Batuu I encourage you to stop by
Kat Saka's Kettle for a Cold Brew Black Caf. It's my favorite pick-me-up for long days spent making memories in Hollywood Studios!
I hope this was helpful, Cheri! If any additional questions arise as you finalize your plans, feel free to
stop back by. I'm always happy to help!
Thinking Happy Thoughts,
