Just an FYI,
I called yesterday to get a boat for December 7th (I got one yeah!) and the number that you have to hit for boats has changed to #5 from #4, I spoke to a woman Saturday before I had to make my mad dash to the phone Sunday morning and she said that you can hit any # and it brings you to the same people, but if you hit #5 it comes up with boats on thier screen so it is quicker....before it was #4 and that is now Tennis Reservations...
This might help you get in quicker since other folks might be hitting #4.
Also, another tip, when you call at 6:55 EST (I got in at 6:58 by my cable box time) as soon as it picks up hit 5, if the message keeps going it is closed, so hang up and redial! But, if the message stops and starts to transfer you, hold on...they are open!
I will post this on the other threads for Illuminations as well.
Thanks!
