Touring St. Peter's Basilica the first week of December

We will be in Rome three days from 12/1/24 to 12/4/24. Rome is our departure point for a Trans-Atlantic cruise that leaves Rome/Civitavecchia on Wednesday, 12/4/24.

We have all visited St. Peter's Basilica previously. Our main goal on this visit is to see "The Chair of St. Peter" which is on display there for the first time since 1867. We are planning to go to St. Peter's Basilica on Monday morning 12/2/24.

Do you have any suggestions or advice regarding our planned visit?

Thanks

Wow, what an opportunity! I would get there as early as possible that Monday morning since there will, undoubtedly, be a line, both to enter and to pass through security.
