After All the Online Trouble....I Got Almost Everything!!!!!!

[cbg1027]

I was up all night to try and get my ADR's online. I managed to make one before the system went down. So I called at 7:00 and was on hold for a few minutes and was so worried I'd never get through because I figured everyone was calling since the online system isn't working.

Well....I was on hold for less than 5 minutes and got through to someone.
I got everything I wanted except Crystal Palace, I'm not sure what happened with that, but the CM told me to call back in 2 hours

Whatever, even if I don't get in to CP I'm soooo happy with what I got I won't complain!!!!

Here are my ADR's!

Dec 12 - Dinner 5:30 Flying Fish
Dec 13 - Dinner 5:00 Sanaa
Dec 14 - Dinner 5:50 Narcoossee's
Dec 15 - Dinner 5:35 Citricos
Dec 16 - Wanted CP for Breakfast this day
Dinner 7:20 California Grill (Wishes at 8!)
Dec 17 - Dinner 7:05 at (drumroll please!).... LE CELLIER!
Dec 18 - Breakfast 10:20 'Ohana

I am in such disbelief I got Le Cellier for the exact day AND time I wanted! Apparently I have pleased the Disney Gods in some way!

Hope everyone has as good of luck as I did!

Hi there

I just got up after my 4 hours of sleep after last night's fiasco and saw your PM. I see that you got Le Cellier on 12/17 and just wanted to make sure that means if I cancel mine, you don't need/want it anymore.

Something tells me that once DH finds out I got a steakhouse rather than a Japanese restaurant---we'll be keeping it anyway, but I just wanted to make sure in case I see someone else in need.

Thanks and congratulations on getting what you wanted!
Ann

You must be staying on site and provide your reservation number. I had a lot of problems online and providing that security code at the crack of dawn fouled my mood. I waited on the phone at the same time. When the CM answered I explained I was in the midst of making ADR's should I continue or let her do it. She said HER system was down to stay online! So they had problems at 7am EST on the phone also. Good luck. I got Le Cellier without a problem but must say, it's good but not All that. I prefer Chefs de France and several others. I got all I wanted.

I called back around 10am and got in to CP - same day and time I requested!

Ann - I sent you a PM, but correct, I do not need your Le Cellier since I got my own! But thanks so much anyways!

OK heres the other thing:
So in my frenzy this morning, the online site worked for about 2 minutes and I snapped up a 4:40 Boma ADR on Dec 12. Then when I called I forgot I had gotten that and made a 5:30 for Flying Fish on the same day.

I can't decide which one to keep!!!!!!!!
I'm so torn about these - obviously since when I first got through I went with Boma and then 2 hours later decided on FF.

Here's my thinking:
We would like to go to Epcot after dinner on the 12, the day we arrive. Since Boma is almost an hour earlier and a buffet, I'm thinking we will get in and out much faster and have more time at the park. There's also the whole money thing - Boma would be a lot cheaper than FF.

But FF sounds so good too. And I thought taking a boat from the Boardwalk to the back entrance of Epcot would be nice and save us a lot of walking since we plan to just tour the World Showcase that evening. But I think we would take a longer time at FF and have less time in Epcot. And it's so much more expensive...and we're already eating at 3 other signatures on our trip.

The friend I'm going with isn't helpful on this one. He says either is fine.
At first he said "well we're already eating at Sanaa so won't Boma be similar?" But then I reminded him "We're also eating at Narcoossee's....so won't FF be similar?"

I guess at the moment I'm kind of leaning towards Boma. So anyone want that FF ADR? If I don't chnage my mind in the next hour?
