Question about the DDP restaurants.

[poppie123]

If i have it right then as from the end of October people will be able to book their ADR's online instead of having to ring up.

I am going in August 2009 on the free dining plan so when would i be able to book the restaurants i wanted? also when does the list of participating restaurants for 2009 actually get released? is it likely to be similiar to this years.

Until it is up and running don't hold your breath! They have already had a delay implementing the new system.

By the time you need to book it should be 180 days in advance but until the new system is fully in place we won't know for sure.

Here are links to Disney PDF leaflets for next years plans they contain the list of restaurants. Some non-Disney owned ones are not on there at the moment as new contracts are yet to be agreeded and can be added as late as December.
