ADR Booking - 2 people using same account

[switch15foot]

ADR booking window opens tomorrow. Can two people book on two different computers using the same account without messing up stuff. Or is it better to have two separate accounts?

The best advice I can give you is what I do every trip. Tabs, lots of tabs. I sign into my account on 2 computers and have every reservation I want ready to go on each tab. We always stay more than 10 days so I have quite a bit going.

The first PC has my toughest to get reservations. I also have tabs open with my backup plans ready to go. If I don't get the reservation I want first try, I try again really quick then move on to the next. Its important to not get frustrated if you don't get a reservation you want. You have to stay focused and keep moving along your list. Once I get in all of my "tough to get reservations", I will circle back if I didn't get one and try again. I then move over to the other PC and get the rest of them done quickly. Once those are done, I circle back again and try to get whatever I missed.

You don't really need more than one computer if you have all your tabs ready to go on one. I have 2 right next to each other so it makes it an easy thing to do, but its not necessary. The most important thing to remember is to move forward when you don't get the one you want. Too many people get hung up and keep trying. You are losing valuable time by doing this. Move past it and circle back after.

A couple more tips for reservations you may not have gotten.......

1. Check back between the hours of 12pm and 3 pm, then 7pm to 10pm. I have noticed through the years that people tend to change/cancel during these times.
2. Always get back on the next couple of morning when reservations open and try again. Keep trying for at least the first hour each day. I have gotten lucky on many occasions doing this.
3. Keep checking the "Cancelled Reservations" posts on these forums. Here you can coordinate with others to try and get the tougher ones that people are cancelling. This works, trust me. Last trip I was able to help out quite a few people with this method. And, I got help myself for the one I missed. I visit this forum multiple times a day to check on cancellations.

Just realized you posed this Saturday. My advice is late but I hope you got what you wanted!

Why would you want 2 people to use the same account? Can someone else on your reservation book it with you? My husband did it with me - although I was much faster than him and able to get almost everything without his help . We had a big party though and needed to split up the reservations for some days though

Yes. I get on my phone and my son gets on his iPad both logged in under my MDE. He gets half the list and I get the other and we do them at same time. Just did them a few weeks ago
