    If I make two reservations for Storytellers of 6&3 for our party of 9 will we be able to sit by each other?

    Welcome back to planDisney, Janie. Thanks so much for stopping by again with another great question for us!

    I’ve traveled with extended family members to the Happiest Place on Earth on numerous occasions. There’s just something magical about Disneyland Resort that makes it the perfect setting for family reunions and get-togethers. Oftentimes, there are 10 or 12 of us in our travel party and it can be tricky when it comes to logistics surrounding table service meals.

    While there’s no guarantee, I recommend arriving a bit early when checking in to your dining reservations and speaking with the Cast Member at the Host Stand to request to sit together as a party of 9. My family has done this many times and we’ve usually been able to sit together. Sometimes you may have to wait a bit longer for diners to finish their meals, but from my experience, Cast Members are very accommodating overall. 

    I wish you and your travel party a wonderful time during Holidays at the Disneyland Resort. Be sure to check out Disney Parks Blog and follow @Disneyland on Instagram for the latest news and updates. As you continue to plan your upcoming visit, please don’t hesitate to visit us again on planDisney if you have more trip-planning questions.

    Sending you pixie dust,

Greetings! I have been fascinated by the magic of Disney since I was a little girl; now that I am a mother of two, I love watching my children experience Disney Parks through their own eyes. I am also surrounded by fellow Disney-loving nurse friends whom I enjoy quick adults-only Disneyland Resort escapes or Disney Cruise Line voyages with. Whether you are planning your once-in-a-lifetime family trip or a short adults-only getaway to the Happiest Place on Earth, I am here to help!
