When I called yesterday the CM said for me to call at the 60-day mark and they would help set up accounts for the kids.
Since my kids are under 13, when I went through the set up, it asked for their dates of birth then asked me to provide my email address to approve accounts for them. So they each have their own username/passwords for each account but didn't give me the option to add an email address for them. Then when I logged in under each account, it asked to link a GS reservation to which I matched up each account to the corresponding kid on the reservation.Are you saying that you were able to set up multiple Play Disney accounts using the same email address?
I got that yesterday morning around 9:30, then called back a couple hours later and got through.Does anyone know if there are issues with the Galactic Starcruiser reservation number? I’ve been trying to make reservations for the past three days but all I get is an automated message that they cannot accept any more calls. Super frustrating and unprofessional to not have an option to get a call back.
The last time I used the main GS reservations line [(407) 939-1800] I was able to get through on 3/3/22 when I started my call early in the morning. The time previous to that, I tried calling after I got off work in the evening and it was nothing but "cannot accept any more calls" all night long. According to my call log on 3/3, I started the phone call at 7:38am (luckily it was my day off) and went about doing chores for about 1.5 hours before I got ahold of someone. Then I called again later that day at 10:01am because I wanted to add something onto my reservation and that phone call took 2.5 hours to get through.Does anyone know if there are issues with the Galactic Starcruiser reservation number?

We are going next week - we are on the Fantasy 3/12-19 then GS 3/19-21. We paid for Disney transfers from DCL to WDW, but those don't (yet?) include an option to go to GS. So they are going to drop us off at Art of Animation, and told us to take an uber from there. It will be ~9am, so we can't even check in.
We were planning to go to Disney Springs until it's time to check in, but of course there's a luggage issue along with transportation. Which seems most feasible -
(a) DCL - Art of animation (prepaid), ask for the resorts to transfer the luggage (?? is this a thing??), bus from art of animation to Disney springs, back to GS at 1pm
(b) The official solution - DCL - Art of Animation (prepaid), uber to GS (we pay), drop off luggage, bus from GS to DS and back
(c) screw it, hire a car from port canavarel direct to GS, hope for a refund of the transfer cost.
(d) keep whining, eventually they'll solve this for us?
UNRELATED: For those of you who have been, if you only have one costume (because, for example, youre spending the prior week on an actual cruise, LOL), which is the "better" day to wear it -- check in day or Galaxy's Edge day?
For like 3 hours? What would we do? (Genuine question, I know nothing about it)Unless you want to go to Disney Springs, why not just hang out at Art of Animation, and then Uber from there to GS with your luggage?
Does it have to be AoA? Why not get dropped off at AK lodge for animal spotting or a resort with free activities. Pick a resort on the monorail line and ride the boat to MK or a trip to EPCOT. Considering bus transportation from AoA to DS, 3 hours doesn't get you a lot of time at DS either.For like 3 hours? What would we do? (Genuine question, I know nothing about it)
You can probably take up an hour walking around the resort and taking pictures of the different areas (Cars, Nemo, Lion King, The Little Mermaid.) They’ve got very cool looking statues and decor for each area. Otherwise you can take the skyliner to the Caribbean Beach resort or Riviera. CBR has small beaches by the waters edge with hammocks, and my kids enjoy playing in the sand. Riviera is a beautiful resort in general (love the mosaics.)For like 3 hours? What would we do?

Of course, right after I posted I called again and got in. Waited close to two hours, but I’m now booked! The Fam is stoked.The last time I used the main GS reservations line [(407) 939-1800] I was able to get through on 3/3/22 when I started my call early in the morning.

As was previously mentioned some pages back, there is another number that I think is a member services line for GS: (407) 939-4243. When I tried calling that one with a question about an existing reservation, I was only on hold for 20 minutes calling at 9:43pm.

Princess Leia bikini?Anyone have any lightweight costume ideas for SWGS? If/When I go, I really want to go full LARP BUT I also tend to run really hot so a costume that's more lightweight and simple would be good for me but I can't think of anything. Any ideas?
Princess Leia bikini?
I’d choose D.
