Any indications for when Disney ADRs will be available?

[Cattrip]

Same issue as others - MDE won't allow me to complete a reservation for late August. I've tried several times for different days, times and restaurants, as well as used different browsers and incognito/private modes. All give me the "paws" email. My dates are highlighted in the reservation system, so it recognizes my resort stay. I received the email yesterday about being able to make reservations.

I kept my cancellation notices - I went back and saw that I canceled several mid-June ADRs on May 29 (one day after the May 28 start window for today's advance ADR opportunity). I have cancellation numbers - assuming I could ever get someone on the line (all circuits for the 6690 number were closed by the time I tried and it just told me to call later - at which point I expect they'll tell me there's nothing they can do).

I do wonder, however, whether the fact that I actively canceled my June ADRs may have affected this. I did not wait for Disney to remove them - which has led me to consider the possibility that accounts flagged for advance ADRs today may have depended on whether there were ADRs in an account when Disney itself purged them. Someone else probably can show that this isn't the case and this is just another weird IT glitch - but after issues with making park reservations with my resort stay, and then with my AP, and now with ADRs, it's just becoming more hassle than it's worth.

Disney canceled mine and I cannot reserve....I am on hold now

this is for people who are stuck on "almost in orbit" and are waiting for hours on hold on the reservation lines....you can literally go on right now on your phone not using the app and the safari/chrome website and make them

I'm having issues with it on mobile. I was able to search and see times for my date, but it's not letting me select the time and the page just freezes. I'm not in any rush honestly so I'm definitely not going to be calling for hours lol

Some people have stated they got excited and booked a lot more than planned because of the availability....I mean it is their choice, but sitting on hold thinking about eating QS all week is frustrating.

Got it, and you’re right, that isn’t cool. I have a lot booked, but we always do a lot of table service. I booked same reservations I had booked before they were wiped (just different days because of park res)

Those having issues booking, have you tried the reservation finder trick on page 11 of this forum?

 

[MrsSmith07]

When did you call- how long on hold...I am at an hour 20

My call connected within seconds of the clock hitting 7, they picked up around the 1:20ish mark. I called the 1391 line.

I just get the orbit screen on my mobile
Any tips?

I keep getting the “paws” screen every time. I was only in orbit for about 5 minutes but when I get the the restaurant page I search available times, choose a time, then sorry for the paws. Called the phone line and it says the queue is closed due to high call volume. Call back later. So frustrating!

Try going to main home page
Use drop down under My Disney experience
Choose park reservations
Log in
Then go back to dining drop down

Finally got a person after 1:20on hold.

was able to make reservations by phone but unfortunately dinner is no longer available for BOG on our MK day. Other dinner reservations are early times but I too what I could get.

So frustrating to see everything I wanted available this morning but not able to complete the reservation.

Thanks for the info - what did you have to "prove," or did it just work?

Right there with you.

Pick any time they have, then you can modify it on the Disney site. Make sure you log into Disney first, since that is where the "orbit" is coming from.

Also, trying logging in from somewhere other than dining site.

Oh good question! Hopefully they can just reference the resort reservation?

 

[Cattrip]

Are you still on hold?

Hi, what happens is that no matter where you log in or from what browser, you can see times but once you select them, you invariably get the "paws" error saying only those who had cancellations can book now. We definitely had cancellations in the window, but it will never let me confirm the times I select. I have tried safari, edge, chrome, the dining site, logging in to MDE, going directly to dining, etc. Trip starts Aug 1.
