ADR and Candlelight Processional question please

[Bertie131]

My 180 day mark is for next week so I will be trying out the new online ressie system. My question is I want to do Chefs de France with the Candlelight Processional package. Does anyone know if that can be scheduled online? Does it give options for dining dinner packages? Do I need to call instead? Any info would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you!

You cannot book CP packages yet, they have not been released for 2010. Provided they work the same as the Fantasmic package, you will have to call Dining and not be able to book that on the phone.

We've never seen Candlelight Processional and also want to book the dinner pkg. If the CP schedule comes out after the 180 day mark, do you think we'll be able to get a ressie? Anything we need to know about booking one of these?

Well you will be in the same situation as everyone else - no one can book them until they are released, so whether it's before or after your 180 day window doesn't matter. They are separately reserved tables for the CP package, so the regular restaurant ADRs don't have anything to do with availability or anything.

Call the day they are released would be my best recommendation.

As info, you can not book candlelight dinner packages online. Hoping for some info soon on possible release dates for these ressies!

This is a MUST for our trip!!!

I will agree with Vicki that you should call as soon as they are released, no matter when your 180 day mark was or is.

It used to be that you could book CP packages for any day you wanted as soon as they were released for booking. That was changed only last year when the 90 day window was used. Unless Disney specifically says in their official release that you must be within your 180 day window, once they are released, check with WDW-DINE to see if you can book one immediately.

Last year, the first time the online booking system was offered, you could book CP packages by phone only. They could not be booked online.

I just talked with a CM about this and was told that, the same as last year, they could be booked by phone only and that they are not available for booking yet. I am already in my 180 window but still can not book until the packages are officially released.
