I;m just finishing up with my vacation and I don't think I can go through 180 days again. It really takes away from relaxing. It's hurry here hurry there etc. I guess I'm tired.
So don't. I make ADRs as late as 60 days out and do fine. Just don't expect your pick of popular places. Last trip we scored an ADR for GFC for a group of 7 3 days before we ate there.
I agree. I have gotten lucky with CRT and LeCellier 20 days before we go. BUT I am on the reservations site at least 10 times daily .... I wish I would have maped it out better cause now were trying to re-arrange stuff for Fantasmic and we have 14 people !!!
I usually just give the concierge a list of restaurants I want when I arrive, and have gotten Akershause, CRT, Tusker House, and Crystal Palace all with one days notice.
