Bright suns, Lauren!
Welcome to planDisney and thank you for cruising over with a fantastic
Walt Disney World Resort vacation planning question. I'm thrilled to hear you'll be heading to The Most Magical Place on Earth on holiday with your father in just a short couple of months. Before you board your spacecraft and set out towards a galaxy far, far away, let's chat about how to create a magical moment for your dad!
Lauren, I love that you're hoping to surprise your father with a visit to Oga's Cantina in
Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge. This immersive experience is sure to please the
Star Wars fanatics in your family, serving up libations that both the Rebels and the First Order agree are not-to-be-missed! As you may know, you're coming up on an important milestone: the
60-day advance booking window for dining reservations. You'll be able to secure your reservation for Oga's Cantina beginning at 6:00 a.m. Eastern Time 60 days before your scheduled arrival, so set your alarm now! In order to
make a dining reservation, you will need to be logged in to a My Disney Experience account. If you don't already have an account, I encourage you to set one up, Lauren. This way, you can book the reservation in secret for now, then link your account to your father's via
Family & Friends immediately before you arrive at the Walt Disney World Resort!
There's nothing quite like a Disney surprise, Lauren. A couple of years ago, I actually removed my mom from my Family & Friends List just so I could surprise her with a stay at her favorite Disney Resort hotel! Sometimes, you have to be sneaky in order to pull off an out-of-this-galaxy surprise. I hope this one brings great joy to your
Star Wars-loving father! If you have any additional questions ahead of your exciting holiday, you're always welcome to revisit us here at
planDisney. Happy to help, we are!
May the Force be with you,
Lauren
