60 days + reservations for on-site guests

[jkh1978]

Our trip is just a little over 60 days. When I look at the site to make reservations, it only lets me choose dates within 60 days. But I thought on-site guests could get reservations for their entire trip when that arrival date is 60 days away. Am I looking for the wrong place to make reservations, or will it change when it knows we have a reservation?

It will allow you to make reservations for the entire trip once you are on 60th day from the first date of your trip. Make sure you are up and ready to go....they were gone very quickly last week when I made our ADRs.

And what time? I see midnight, 6am, 7am... we want bibbidi boutique, galaxy edge droid and lightsaber builds, and dining reservations.

This sounds nuts, but I set an alarm at mid-night and I could see all of my dates but it would not actually "save". At 5:30 a.m. CST, I tried again and it worked. In years past, I would try to 7:00 EST, but on our last trip in 2022 we got ZERO of our desired reservations with that method.

Maybe someone on here has the actual answer, not just what I experienced.

****I was able to get a droid reservation last week and there were several times to select from, if that helps.

The droids and lightsabers are, in theory at midnight ET. Dining opens anywhere from 5:45-6 a.m. ET online. No clue about BBB.

The reasons that there are different times is because these are different departments within WDW; Special Events and Dining.

Disney has never really aligned all of their departments within MDE which makes it very confusing to all of us. To top it all off, the phone center opens after everything else.... so if you have trouble, you have to wait for that department to open too.

Call Disney before your 60 day window opens and ask them what time Special Event reservations open up and also, what time dining reservations open up. You can also ask them about BBB. These times will be Eastern, you can confirm that.

Plan on being up and at your computer before those times (in case they open early) because sometimes they will for reasons none of us know. Be logged in and have a tab open on your browser for each reservation you want to make to cut down on the amount of browsing through the website it will take. Try to book something every 15 minutes leading up to the time Disney told you that reservations open in case it does open early.

Midnight for BBB, Savi and Droids and 6am EST for dining reservations.

This might be obvious after reading through the PP comments but just an FYI if you aren't already aware. The length of stay priority given to on site guests means it's more challenging to get high demand ADRs closer to the start of your trip so you may have to juggle your priorities around some and move the popular ones to later in your stay.

Is bbb at Disney springs or GF opened or only MK? I messed up and want my daughter to do BBB the day we go to Epcot for Akershus but we have a base ticket
