Another happy poster! Today is our 180 mark, so I woke up at 5:45 to ensure I'd be ready for the online reservation system at 6am! I prioritized our reservations based on popularity and had everything right in front of me so I was ready to go. My first reservation was BOG, which happens to be on a party night so I knew reservations would be limited, but we got the exact time we'd hoped for! In fact, we got every reservation we'd hoped for within 10 minutes of the time we requested. So excited!
Another note (someone may have mentioned this), make sure you have a credit card in front of you so you don't have to scramble when they want it to make your reservation. Seems like more restaurants are doing this. I had to put a CC hold down for BOG, Cape May Clambake, H&V, Akershus, and Narcoosee's for our upcoming trip.
Also used your trick to bump up the amount of people in our party. We have 7 in our group, so I went ahead and put 8 when doing the BOG to save time and hopefully increase our chances of getting a reservation in time and it worked! I bumped back down to 7 for Narcoosee's because it said I would have to call for a group of 8 or more. Tried 7 and it worked wonders also.
Thanks for much for that post. I was well prepared! Happy camper over here counting down the days until we get to enjoy our reservations!
