I thought my 90 day window was tomorrow 10/17 based on the PS calculator and have been planning this for months. Get up at 3:30 am, have windows open and ready yada yada. But when I pull up the reservations site, Disney is only showing open through 1/13/10. Should be opening 1/15/10 tomorrow at 6 am according to the calculators. What's the problem?

Are you checking in on 1/15 too? I don't know whether to just go to bed and get up to call or wait and see what happens. Let me know if you get in. Sometimes it's showing me open only to the 12th and sometimes to the 13th. Very frustrating

Blech. It will accept my DVC number but still nothing. What about people checking in on 1/14? Did they get reservations this morning? I guess I'll be calling when the phone lines open.

I so totally agree. But at least no one else can get in either. I hate getting up THIS early for nothing!

From 1/15 to 1/23. How about you? We've always stayed at POFQ which I love, but I'm so excited to try BLT. The washer/dryer and kitchen will be amazing!

That is good! I hadn't even thought to look at that. My kids are really hoping to eat in the castle, so that's my priority. We hav 3 little girls, so we'll probably do lots of princesses in the future! DH and I wanted Le Cellier but for this time around we're going to hold off due to little kids.

Well, I'm thinking to go to bed. Might try again at 6:00 EST

Well, I just realized/remembered that my stay is under 2 different reservation numbers: one for Fri. and Sat. in a LV studio, and Sun-Thurs. in a MK 1bedroom., So I think I can only book for for the Fri. and Sat. now, which would mean:

The Wave
Chefs de France

We're booked in 3 different reservations because of dates not being open to use with points. but i posted about that awhile back and was told it still opened the 90+10. Of course, since it won't open at all, I have no faith in that either!

Good point, but I think I'll stay up until 3:30 CST, just in case. I am fairly certain that later today when I am falling asleep in my food that I will regret this decision.

We should text eachother when it opens! Big 'BEEP' from your phone as soon as someone gets through! :rotfl: Or is it just us and that's why there's not other angry people up posting about it? Will be regretting this in the morning when the baby decides it's time to get up :surfweb:

So I cleared my history to see if that would help. I checked the date before putting my ressie info in: it says it's through the 14--okay, not what I'm looking for, but better than the 13th that I've been stuck with since almost immediately after my last post (I tried posting that update, but DIS was not responding).

I put my ressie info in, and IT GOES BACK TO THE 13th!!! WTH!!:confused3:mad:

I just tried it with my other ressie number, and the same thing happens! You all should check and see if that is true for you, too.

No problem, Julie--so glad I couldhelp ;)
