made all my ADR today. very happy

[sejeta]

I did have some problems getting though. The computers were down so I had to call back 3 times but it was totally worth it.

I got everything except for CM dinner on our arrival day. I booked Park fare instead. I did book cm for later in the week though.

So my ADR are.
Dec 12 park fare (6:15pm)
dec 14 garden grill (5pm)
dec 15 sci fi (1:15)
dec 16 royal table castle lunch(12:10)
dec 17 cape may (10:15)
dec 17 CM (6:15)
dec 18 norway princess dinner (5:00)
dec 19 crystal palace (12:55)
dec 20 Ohana's (11:00)

I need to Pay OOP for two. I was thinking Ohana's and cape may since they are the cheapest but not sure what I should do.

I'm also going to try and move CM to Dec 12 and cancel park fare. I went last time but if I can't get CM that night I'll keep what I have.

I'm so glad that's over with, especially since all the trouble I had this morning.
I called at 7 but I wasn't done until after 9 because I had to keep calling back.

Now I get to plan which rides we want to ride first.

I have to make mine in the morning. I have a question...I am trying to get CRT on the 16th for breakfast. Did you want lunch or were the breakfasts all gone already?

Glad you're happy with everything and sure hope I am tomorrow!! Of course the site is down right now grrrr

Looks like you got some great (highly sought) ressies. . . and great times to boot. Congrats!

I had trouble with the online booking system at first this morning, but I was able to get an 8:35 breakfast ressie for CRT on the 15th this morning around 3:30

Great choices! I will be there the week before you and I booked a lot of the same places.

 

[Pooh&OurHunny]

I'm so glad you are happy with your ADR's. I had the same thing happen to me last week...computer problems and then on phone at 7 and had a 45 min wait (then when the CM got on the phone my cell phone was static and had a hard time hearing him) but all worked out b/c I got all my ADR and times I wanted (except for one CM) but its ok at least I got all the restaurants.

I wanted a late breakfast. Around 11 but all they had in that time frame was 10:10 and I didn't want that time so I took lunch. I didn't check before 10 so I don't know what was avalible but breakfast wasn't book up. Good luck getting the time you want.

I hope you don't get the same problems I had.

I did, too! And like bostonterrierlover, I also was up WAAAYYY early! But it really paid off; the online reservations came on at exactly 3:00 am. I still can't believe I got so lucky with everything. Granted, I probably only have a few hot ticket items (the rest are pretty accessible), but still they're exactly what we wanted. Here are my ADRs:

Sat 12/12 Raglan Road (7 pm)

Sun 12/13 RFC: AK (12 pm)
Whispering Canyon (6:45 pm)

Mon 12/14 PSB at Akershus (9:15 am)
H&V Fantasmic Pkg (4:20 pm)

Tue 12/15 CRT (12:05)
Tony's (5:40) before MVMCP

Wed 12/16 Coral Reef (12:00)
Artist Point (6:20)

Thu 12/17 H&V (9:30)

Fri 12/18 CP (11:50)
LC (7:20)

Sat 12/19 'Ohana (10:00 am)

I have to admit I was a bit nervous about booking our dining, having never been to WDW before, and hearing horror stories about people having trouble booking their ADRs. But aside from the online system acting a bit buggy, it was smooth sailing for the most part.

FWIW: If anyone's date is coming up soon, I highly recommend biting the bullet and getting up at 3:00 am to book ADRs online.

Good luck everyone!

I'm not sure if I should have done crystal palace dinner instead and the same thing with sci fi. I'm torn because the menu looks a little better but my son eats better at lunch, plus its nice to get a break in the middle of the day even though it shouldn't be that hot outside.

What to do???

 

[disneyloverforchrist]

I had problems this morning too, but SO glad it all worked out for you too!!!!

The hardest part is over now

I thought about getting up that early but I do enjoy talking with someone on the phone and after finally getting to book on my 3rd try it went smoothy. I was also able to get in really quickly. The first time I waited 20 minutes only to be told to call back. The next time I waited 5 minutes and the last time maybe a minute but this time it paid off.
I was able to look on-line to see what was available so I sort of knew what I could get when I finally did speak with someone on the phone.

Glad you got everything you wanted too. It feels great to have one less thing to worry about. 3 more months means it getting really close now!!!
