One of the most convenient things that many Disney World restaurants offer is the Walk-Up Waitlist that lets you use the My Disney Experience app to get on a waitlist to get into a restaurant, even if you don’t have a reservation. In fact, sometimes it’s the best way to get into the popular spots!
The Beak and Barrel!
Well, two popular Disney World lounges that have been EXTREMELY hard to get reservations for have added the Walk-Up Waitlist option, so it just got easier to visit those lounges. YAY!!
We were checking the My Disney Experience app today and noticed that when we looked at the Magic Kingdom map and selected The Beak and Barrel, the park’s Pirates of the Caribbean-themed lounge, it had a button that said: “Join the Walk-Up Waitlist.” Say what? It’s also listed as available on The Beak and Barrel page in the app.

We did click on the button, but we got an error message, so it doesn’t seem to be working just yet.

However, once we went back on the app, we got a full list of restaurants with the Walk-Up Waitlist, and it said: “Walk-up list is currently unavailable to join due to high demand.” INTERESTING.

Well, that’s not all. Over in EPCOT, the new Spaceship Earth-themed lounge there, GEO-82, was showing the same button to “Join the Walk-Up Waitlist.” When we checked it on the list, it also gave us the error, and when we tried to go back to the previous page on the app to view the list, we got the same message: “Walk-up list is currently unavailable to join due to high demand.”

So this feature might not QUITE be ready just yet, but it looks like it’s something that could be coming very soon. This will make getting into these lounges a lot easier for those who can’t manage to snag reservations.
GEO-82
We’ll be keeping an eye out for more updates from Disney World, so stay tuned to Magical Guides for more.
