it's usually about 15 minutes they let you wait. The park isn't that big, although it is sort of walking across the park.

im getting a friend to go with me and I don't think she will be at Stars of the Saga so she can check in and let them know I'm coming.

I was originally told they were completely booked and I asked to speak to guest relations...they immediately found me a 6:15 slot for May 22! I wanted earlier since that's our FTF day but I'll take it. Should I call back if I want an earlier time? I feel like I should just leave it alone for now...I can feel the menacing glares from my bosses as they keep catching me on my phone!

Third call I was able to get 6/13 @ 6PM. A little too close for comfort with seeing Frank Oz. 4th call I was able to get 6:30 PM. WooHoo!

I gave my person four dates and she originally said they was no availability for any of them. I told her that the reservations just opened less than 30 minutes ago. She said let me try another way-sometimes the quick book system does not allow for special bookings. She too my info and I was able to get times for three different dates. (I made reservations for two of them.

I'm in the same boat for 6/13 - end of SotS to a 4:05 RH ressie. Does the fast walk get us there by 4:05 or by the acceptable ADR arrival window (is it within 5 or 10 mins?) ?

you'll make it.

got 5/15 at 6 pm!!! Was hoping for 5/17 so we could cancel if Disers reported it to be lame (or not worth it) but the 5/15 came up and I grabbed it!!

Also had to let DD in on the surprise (she heard me on the phone) but that's not too tragic!

well be there at the same time......

I have another ADR for 3:55 on the day I want... if they're only letting everyone book 4:00, will I not be able to get it because it will conflict?

Click to expand...

I got one for 5:30 on a day when I have another ADR for 5:15 no problem. Just can't link in MDX without canceling the first reservation.

If I want to try changing times, should I ask to modify my reservation or just try to book a new one??

Click to expand...

I chose the option to modify when I called back. Gave her me conf # and she was able to get me a better time. Good luck.

Second call this morning. First time = no luck. Second time no issues. 5/17 @7:30! Need to wedge it between SW Dinner and Dessert Party but seems worth it.
