Any chance at all of CRT or 1900 Park Faire during Free Dining?

[misskerri]

The free dining promo wasn't made available to Disney Visa holders until after our 180 day mark, so I didn't book the vacation until then...and then I dragged my feet on making ADRs. Am I completely out of luck, or is there a good chance that, esp with our 45 day mark approaching, I might be able to get a reservation either at CRT or 1900 Park Faire (we're staying at the GF) for our trip? Right now, neither has any availability at all during our stay (Oct 2nd-Oct 8th).

It feels weird to have NO character dining booked for this trip, even though we only did one character meal last trip (we paid OOP for TS meals).

Right now, I am lined up for:

Thurs 10/2 HDDR (we were originally booked at WL), 8:30pm
Friday 10/3 Biergarten lunch
Saturday 10/4 Sci Fi lunch
Sunday 10/5 LTT lunch (MNSSHP that evening)
Monday 10/6 Teppan Edo dinner (for my son, who loves Hibachi)
Tuesday 10/7 No ADRs, due to HDDR being 2 credits (at MK that day)

There's always a chance because people will cancel when their plans change because of the no show penalty. CRT, especially, since the penalty is the full cost of the meal. If you are persistent and check online multiple times a day hopefully something will show up that will fit into your plans. If you are flexible about the day and the meal that increases your chances. You can also subscribe to the October cancellation thread:

Good luck!

I agree with the pp that you still have a chance to get those ADRs. I'd keep checking every day multiple times a day as people cancel all the time and you never know if/when something might become available. Good luck.
