Welcome, Nathan!
Thanks for stopping by planDisney with your question.
Blue Bayou is one of my favorite dining experiences at the Disneyland Resort, so you've come to the right place. There is just a touch of magic at every turn during this particular dining experience, from the glow of the lanterns to the gentle sounds of the bayou to the waves from fellow Guests heading off on their swashbuckling
Pirates of the Caribbean adventure. It's truly one of the most enchanting dining experiences in the park!
Happy to share that your evening should be smooth sailing. I recently dined at Blue Bayou myself with a few planDisney pals, and we split the bill between two Disney Dining Cards. Of course, things are always changing in the parks, and it doesn't hurt to chat with your server or the host at the start of your meal to ensure there won't be any hiccups when the bill arrives.
I'm so happy to hear you are an expert in
Mobile Ordering, as it has certainly changed the way I plan when my family is out and about in the parks. It helps you maximize those magical minutes, doesn't it? You can use a Disney Dining Card to Mobile Order as well, but it does take an extra step, and only one card can be used per purchase at this time. Currently, there is no way to add the Disney Dining Card to your payment methods, so you will have to manually enter the number on your card. When you reach the "Order Summary", scroll to "Payment Methods", tap "Add Card", and the option to choose a Disney Dining Card should pop up. This is where it will ask you to enter the number. A planDisney pro-tip is to start a note in your smartphone where you manually list out all the numbers on your dining cards ahead of time. Then it's just a quick copy and paste of the number to complete your order!
Nathan, I hope we've set you up for a successful visit next week! One of my favorite Mobile Order moves is to place an order for hot-piping Mickey beignets from the
Mint Julep Bar just as I'm about to enter the Haunted Mansion. Tap the "I'm Here" button just as you are walking back into the sunlight and head over for one of the best treats at the Happiest Place on Earth! And, of course, your visit is extra special next week as you will get to experience
Haunted Mansion Holiday to see what Jack Skellington and his happy haunts have been up to!
If you have any more questions, Nathan, we are happy to help here at
planDisney.
Magic awaits!
