ADR's done! Very straightforward in the end...

[billabonggreg]

Evening all

After reading about quite a few stressful experiences when booking your ADR's on the dreaded 180+10 day, I'd just like to ease your nervousness and say how simple and easy it all was.

I had my list of restaurants in priority order and open under different tabs on my computer, then as soon as 11am struck I just went through each one and booked. I didn't have one problem. I think I was done by 11.10!

Can I just ask did you start at 180+10 and work back or with particular restaurants (BOG for instance??) When you say you had them all open in tabs on your PC/laptop, do you mean you were booked into MDE on 10 different tabs?? Apologies if am asking dumb/silly questions only am new to this 180+10 ADR thing. DH sorting July hol out and I'm sorting Oct hol out and he works abroad so won't be here to help. TIA!

Sorry for the late reply, only just seen your message!

I had my list of restaurants in order of priority (BOG definitely number 1!) then opened up separate tabs for each restaurant. I then selected the date and time I wanted (before 11am) so as soon as the hour struck I just clicked 'find table' on each restaurant and booked one by one.

Hope that helps.

For BOG we went to 180+10 to get ours as figured most people would try for the first day and it worked for us

I think I was done by 11.10! dde2e If your 180 +10 day is coming up, please don't get worried. As long as you've planned and are ready to go at 11am, you'll be absolutely fine. I'd recommend using a computer/laptop when making your reservations, not the MDE app. I've still got 3 more meals to book as they were past my 180+10 mark so I'll do that later this week. Here's a list of restaurants we've booked: Be Our Guest California Grill Chef de France Coral Reef Crossroads Splitsville Paradiso 37 Teppan Edo Yak & Yeti 1900 Park Fare Still to book: Fantasmic @ Mama Melrose San Angel Inn Raglan Road I also rang up and booked the Keys to the Kingdom Tour. The lady I spoke to was extremely helpful and made the whole experience very easy. I'm so excited we've gone past the 6months to go stage! dde06

Glad you got everything you wanted we did too.

I don't think so many people are stressing about the actual booking of ADR's - it's about if MDE actually works for them

Yes I'm having that problem. I'm unable to book anything on our last day (11/10/14). When I try and book I just keep getting this message - "We're sorry, there is a problem searching for reservations at this time."

Think I'm just gonna leave that day as we are only planning on having a lunch somewhere at DTD before our flight.
