How We Snagged Rise of the Resistance Boarding Group 3! Will it Work for Remy's Ratatouille Adventure?

How in the Walt Disney World get we get boarding group 3 for Rise of the Resistance at Disney's Hollywood Studios on Tuesday? No, it wasn't luck but careful planning and a lot of early rising and to be honest, a prayer or two asking God to bless us! We ended up with two rides- the first being boarding group 13 on Sunday.

Here's how we did it:

1- The evening before bed, we walked outside of our resort- Old Key West- and scoped out the places to get the best signal, bypassing Disney's internet for our own network.

2- We all got up about 6:45am and confirmed our party on the My Disney Experience app.

3- The app was the only thing running and active on our phone.

4- We refreshed the screen at 6:59am.

5- Then, watching our phones, we clicked "Join Boarding Group" exactly at 7:00am.

Our son hit the jackpot twice. The key was his was the newest version phone, and it won him the top prize. It should be a success for Remy's Ratatouille Adventure as well.

Our vacation included all four Disney World parks and both Universal parks. Did Harry Potter's worlds win top theming over Disney? Stay tuned for a trip report and tons of photos!
