Hello, Briana!
Thanks so much for your question! Ahh, the Blue Bayou...it has such a unique atmosphere and I love the Monte Cristo! You will have a fantastic time.
I can understand why your nephew would want to be a stowaway for your swashbuckling meal! You can
modify an existing dining reservation by following these steps:
- Open up the Disneyland Mobile App and tap the "☰" icon to open the feature menu
- Select "Future Plans"
- Tap on your dining reservation and select "Modify"
- Enter the correct number of guests
If there is availability then you'll see a reservation time that you can select. If you don't see availability then I recommend that you keep checking back, because guests change their plans all the time. Hopefully something will open up!
I'd hate for your nephew to feel like he had to walk the plank, so I'll share one more idea. If you use the
Disneyland Mobile App to complete
Mobile Dine Check-In while you're in the park, one step of that process is usually confirming how many guests are in your party. I've sometimes been able to add one more guest at that point! You could also visit the Cast Member at the host stand when you arrive at the Blue Bayou to ask if your party can be accommodated. The captain may still say the ship is completely full, but it's worth a try!
Thanks again for sailing over with your question, Briana! I hope you'll be able to adjust your reservation and enjoy an amazing meal with your group...including your scallawag nephew. Have a safe and delicious voyage!
Keep moving forward!
Amanda
