How to Book at 7 months? - The DIS Discussion Forums

MulanMom · 11-10-2012, 11:32 PM

I'm not a newbie at this, but haven't booked exactly at the 7 month window for awhile. Back in the day where ressies could only be made by phone with MS, it was common practice to call each day right at the 7 month window, then link your days with one reservation number. With online reservations, what is best to do? Try to book each day? Or book the entire stay?

TIA!

On the first day of your call you can book up to 7 days at that time.

Just a reminder that the booking windows changed to CHECK-IN rather than CHECK-OUT.

So as Sammie posted, 7 months prior to your check in day (or 11 months if booking a home resort), you can book a stay of up to 7 nights. This is true whether you book online or call MS. If you plan to stay more than 7 nights, you can call each day after that to add nights.
