From the Disneyland website, BVS reopening Carthay Circle Know Before You Go info - it says with proof of reservation, one can speak to a CM when Simba Lot entry is paused, and can enter BVS up to one hour ahead of reservation time.
For mobile ordering, you would probably have to order at the counter so the CM can manually input the discount.
They are hardcore pushing the mobile system. When BVS first opened I was watching a blogger review and he didn’t even realize you could order in person at Award Wieners. He only knew after someone stated you could. I did notice that since they are pushing the mobile system, the actual lines to order are very short. When I walked by Award Wieners had maybe 3 people in line. I didn’t even see a line for Smoke Jumpers. So that’s something to keep in mind too if you go and want to order
Thanks for this! Does anyone know if this applies for DTD reservations, too, or is that time allowance still approximately 15 minutes before your TS reservation?
Good move to post here first -- I wanted to wait to post this in the official news thread, too.
It's being reported (by GR, for one) that expired APs or any APs which have disappeared from the app must go to the registers to get the discount. You will be able to get your discount, but only by going to the registers. This applies to mobile ordering and mobile checkout.
I saw this was answered, but wanted to confirm that it’s an hour earlier. We had a 1:10 reservation and happened to hit the gate at precisely 12:10 and got right in.
Good to know that this works in real life, just as published -- which we know isn't always the case with Disney!
Hope you and your family had a good Thanksgiving!
Seeing this, I’m so glad my visit got pushed back to next week!
This makes me so happy!!!
Just in time for your trip!
