    Hello panel. You all have been so helpful in planning. Coming in June. Planning Chef Mickeys for sons bday followed by Pirate and Pals Fireworks Cruise. What time should I make the ressie for Chef Mickeys so we aren't rushed to make the cruise? Thank you!

    Hi Jaynee

    My son and I experienced this voyage on our last trip, and it was incredible!  It was a lot of fun, and in my opinion probably the best way to experience Wishes!

    You should probably back into your dining reservation time based on what time Wishes is that evening.  The Pirate and Pals Fireworks Voyage begins an hour and forty-five minutes prior to the Wishes time.  I would then add at least an hour to that for your meal at chef Mickeys.

    So for example, if Wishes is at 8:00 P.M. that evening, you will be expected to arrive for your voyage at 6:45 P.M.  Based on that time, I would try to secure my dinner reservation at Chef Mickey's for 5:30 to give us plenty of time to eat and take bathroom breaks before the voyage.  I always like to err on the side of caution, so you may wind up with a few minutes to spare but that would be the perfect time to brows the merchandise shops while you wait!

    Hope this helps!
