ADR Questions....

[lysahester]

Ok, So I am going to be at my 180 day mark on 3/28.
Will it be easier to make my ADR's online or by phone? How early can I make them on the 28th? Do they become available at midnight, or around 8am?

So excited!!!!!!!

You can do it earlier online..I think 6am?? If you call you have to wait til MS opens.

As far as "ease" it all depends. I personally prefer online, though some people prefer dealing with a real person over the phone.

• Online Dining Reservations "roll over" for the new day at 6AM Eastern. You can access the online dining reservation system by going to the main WDW website, logging in, and then clicking on "Where to Eat" in the top right.
• Phone Dining Reservations open up at 7AM Eastern. The phone number is (407) WDW-DINE.

My typical advice is to attempt doing them online first. If you're having trouble, first try a different web browser. If you're still having trouble, then call at 7.

It really depends. That is to say that some of it's easier online, and some of it's easier by phone.

For CRT, HDDR, Fantasmic! Dinner Package, etc., I'd do those by phone. I just think it's quicker. But for everything else, it's just as quick to do it on your own.

When I made my ADRs, I had everything charted out and then did them all by phone. Then I've spent the last couple of months tweaking them myself online.

FYI - When I made my reservations a month ago or so I did most of them online but had to do one over the phone due to a glitch in the online system. The phone reservation actually took much longer and was kind of a pain because it is now by default an automated system - I'm just not a fan of spelling out my entire name to a computer. I don't doubt that I would have been able to hit 0 at any point to speak to a real person if I had really wanted to, though...I will say that the online system overall makes me very happy, though. This trip was my first time using it.
