RotR Planning & Daily Boarding Group Discussion - *CLOSED*

[SouthFayetteFan]

We finally moved to BG 74. I’m not exactly sure when it happened (definitely in the last 15 minutes tho). We were stuck on 73 since 3:29pm.

We scheduled an uber to pick us up at 430 and they no showed. It did not say whether they are on the way or not, just scheduled. So then at 440 we just got one in the area ... he was at CBR in 10 mins and at HS in about 5 mins more.drop off right near security area at 502 better than walking from BW

Boarding is 72-75 now. Interesting. Was 75 the highest BG assigned? I would start wandering around there just in case a CM wants to give out pixie dusts.

i have 88. Also I know a story was shared on here about the cast pixie dusting one of our posters on a day they got through all BG. But I don’t think they were give any special treatment. According to some operations CMs at MK I talked to the next day, they opened the line up for everyone. You just had to be in the right place at the right time. But then the ride broke down for the rest of the day and they gave comp FP to everyone in line. Take this for what it’s worth. Idk if true or not. But it makes more sense to me than just letting random people in line. They either keep the ride going or they don’t.

average down to 3.5 per hour over last 2 hours.

I jinxed it, didn't I?

 

[ML_LovesDisney]

Yes, everyone has to be in the park to get in a BG. If they want to ride they'll have to wake up and join you.

Yes can’t add to BG unless tapped in

Thank you!

Any reason to use Minnie Van over a cheaper Lyft ride (e.g. from Epcot Resorts to DHS)?

YES! Huge reason to use Minnie Van over regular Lyft.....Saturday I took my first Lyft ride ever at 5:30am to Hollywood Studios. The driver had an IPad stuck to his dashboard and was watching a music video with burning crosses. When I asked him to turn it off he said, “No, I like it!.” I was afraid for my life. I’ll never take another Lyft unless it’s a Minnie Van.

Knock on wood, looks like they'll make it through all the boarding groups in a reasonable amount of time. Hopefully this means things are starting to run more smoothly. Just in time for the chaos of christmas.

Watching a video while driving Report him to Lyft. I’m sure it’s very!! very!! against the rules regardless the content of the video

So what happens if your group is called, but it goes down for the day before you can ride but you haven’t scanned in yet?

go to guest relations

sorry, couldn’t resist. It sounds like one of those limited scenarios that Guest Relations will be able to solve after a lengthy wait in line (Can you tell I don’t like going there? Lol)

Yes, I did report the driver by calling the Lyft safety phone number (After I got my boarding group of course! First things first.) They said they would be sure not to match me to that driver again. I told them I would not ever be a Lyft customer again.

This happened to me on the first day. I didn’t even go back to the park for my ride and I still received a free park hopper ticket and a pass to ride the next day.
So I got my first ride on day 2.

I actually already went there this morning. They used my comp ticket instead of my AP... they gave me a piece of paper with a long code to redeem whenever I want to use it. So instead of having it in my account for 10 years, I have to keep up with this piece of paper or a picture of it for 10 years.
