ADR System Upgrade - History

[Jen-N-Troy]

Can someone help me understand when I can make my ADR's and how on computer or call? I am going to Disney for my honeymoon in July and I think I can call April 7th. But reading some threads it looks like I can call 10 days early. No one has told me that all the times I call WDW.

Help!!!!!

Okay, I'm lost......If we arrive May 24th, I thought I couldn't start booking until February 23rd (90 days out)? How are people already booking for the 26th and 27th???

If the guest is checking in on the 16th of May they can book May 16th thru May 26th......90+10, if staying on property.

NO, it is not 100 days in advance

Call 90 days before you check in.

If you are staying on Disney property you may make reservations for up to 10 days of your vacation on that day.

If you are staying off site you will need to call each morning to make that days reservations.

Okay, that is what was throwing me. I saw posts of people who were having to call in each day to make reservations instead of being able to make ten days worth in one call. They must've been staying offsite. That would explain it..........

hi! I'm new here. We're planning a trip 1st week of May. It will be our first time to visit Disney World. This forum has been very helpful. We're planning to stay off-site. Does that mean I can't make ADRs until we get there? I won't be able to reserve 90 days before? If anyone can answer my question, thanks!

This is probably a really obvious question but I couldn't find the information anywhere. When I call tomorrow for my 90 day window ADRs, the phone lines open at 7am. That's 7am Eastern time, correct?

Hopefully I can help clear this up for you.

You call 90 days before you want to dine at that specific restaurant.

You'll need to call at the 90 day mark for every day of your vacation (that you're making a reservation for)

Thanks very much for clearing that up!

We're going the first week of May also! You should be able to call now and get all your ADR's, since the 90 day mark (Jan. 31 for May 1) has passed several weeks ago.

The last 2 times we have visited Disney, we have been able to make our dining reservations 180 days out. I thought I read something on here where they cut it back to 90 days, but maybe it was just a temporary thing? Anyway- my question is... My trip is Labor Day 2009. Can I make my reservations 180 days out or only 90? Thanks very much for any help you can offer!!

 

[dogodisney]

It will be 90 days for you. They are phasing out the 180 day time frame and from what I've read it should be permanent.

I just made a Poly reservation for the end of June. I asked for clarification about the 90 day + 10 deal... She told me to look at the last day of my stay, and add 100 days to that!!!! She actually said that to me! She backed it up for me very quickly and gave me a March 27th date which is definitely NOT 90 days before my arrival on June 28th. I think its confusing because so many different pieces of info are out there!!! thanks.

Some CM's are even confused. You can try calling in at that mark, but likely they'll ask you to call back 10 days later. I agree, CM's not being on the same page makes it confusing for everyone.

What about for Mickey's Backyard BBQ? Will that still be 180 days? Thanks!!

Thanks for the update on the first page of this thread about on-line booking. The second week in March is when my 90 day window opens. I hope that they get it worked out, so that I don't have too many issues. I will give it a try if it is available.

Here's hoping!!!
