Hi, there!
Welcome to planDisney, Sue. I'm so very excited to hear that you and your family have plans to visit
Magic Kingdom Park on Christmas Day! I can't think of a better place to celebrate.
A meal at
Be Our Guest Restaurant is always a must-do for my family's Disney vacations. With three unique dining rooms and French-inspired fare, a reservation at Beast's enchanted castle never disappoints! The snow gently falling outside The Grand Ballroom will make the perfect backdrop for a Christmas Day meal.
How strange that the dining reservation your son made isn't appearing on
My Disney Experience. Not to fret! If he has the confirmation number, he can easily get the reservation linked to his account. He should start by logging in to his My Disney Experience account on the Walt Disney World Resort website. He should then hover over the My Disney Experience tab on the homepage and select "My Plans" from the drop-down menu that appears. When he scrolls down his planning page, he'll see several round planning icons. If he hovers over the Dining icon, he'll see an option to link a reservation. By clicking that button, he can enter the reservation confirmation number along with his last name to link it to his My Disney Experience account.
Has everyone in your travel party connected through
Family & Friends on My Disney Experience? With everyone connected, you can make and share plans together! As someone listed on your son's Family & Friends list, you should be able to view the Be Our Guest Restaurant dining reservation on your My Disney Experience account once he gets it linked.
Did you know you can catch
Mickey's Once Upon a Christmastime Parade on Christmas Day in Magic Kingdom Park? You won't want to miss this festive procession! It's currently scheduled for 12:00 PM and 3:45 PM the day of your visit. When you arrive at the park, be sure to grab a Times Guide for the day's most up-to-date schedule of events.
I hope this was helpful, Sue. I'm wishing you and your family a very merry visit to Magic Kingdom Park!
