Hi Chris! Welcome to planDisney! Thanks so much for stopping by to send us your question!
The Happiest Place on Earth is even more magical with friends or family! My friends and I love making
Advanced Dining Reservations, and I know it can be more challenging with a large group. I have a couple of suggestions for trying to streamline both of your dining times to be the same. Before you arrive for your vacation, you could continue to try to modify one of the dining times to be the same, or within 15 minutes or less of the other dining time. When it's time for your reservation, you can use the Disneyland Mobile App to check in for dining reservations up to 15 minutes ahead of the start of your dining time. If you don't have any success with modifying one of the reservations to be closer in time, I recommend speaking with a Cast Member when you arrive at
Goofy's Kitchen at the
Disneyland Hotel. It would be best if everyone in your dining party arrives at the earlier reserved time. In my experience, Cast Members will do what they can to seat your dining party together. With some faith, trust, and pixie dust, I hope these suggestions help and you're able to enjoy your meal together at Goofy's Kitchen!
Before you arrive, be sure to
download the Disneyland Mobile App. The app gives you easy access to your dining reservations,
Theme Park Tickets, attraction wait times, and much more! If you have more planning questions, please send them to us at planDisney. We're excited for you to visit, and we would love to help!
Wishing you magic,
Lisa
