Anyone Doing LTT for MNSSHP?

[Corryn]

I saw something similar on the Restaurants board, but I wanted to see if anyone here had reservations for LTT for MNSSHP. I've been trying to get a reservations, I even tried back in May, but I cannot get something that is early enough (like 4:00) I can only get ressies after 8:00.


Also, is it possible to go inside and get photos with the characters if you don't have a reservation?

I called in May after we did decide to do the MNSSHP afterall and I managed to get a 5:35pm ADR-they didn't have anything earlier but did have some later times than ours... I took the 5:35 because I'm hoping to be done by 7 "Ish" to enjoy the party-my girls will be 4 and 6 so I don't imagine we'll be staying past the 10pm mark and wouldn't want to waste party time in a restaurant.....

I don't believe you will be able to get pics with the characters inside the restaurant if you are not dining there, but there will be plenty of photo ops throughout the park anyway..... GL to you-keep trying-you never know if someone may cancel their ADR!!!!

I was able to get a 5:35 seating at LLT also. I made the ADR the same day I bought the tickets. I took the 5:35 time slot because the party doesnt officially begin until 7pm. That's enough time for us to eat and get to the party. Keep trying, something may open up. Good Luck!!!

I have a ressie at LTT at 4:05 on 10/24 and I'm worried that we will not be allowed to get in the park with our MNSSHP ticket to make it there in time! I called Disney Dining yesterday, and the CM told me that there is no gaurantee we will be allowed in that early. Sooo, now I do not know what to do!

I beleive this is where we are eating before MNSSHP too (I cant believe I dont remember exactly!!!) Does anyone know if the characters are dressed up?

You might be a little late for your ADR. They will start letting party goers in AFTER 4:00p with just party tickets, which, IMHO is pretty generous as it is.

Does anyone know if the characters are dressed up?

They wear masks/aprons that are festive. Pluto wears half a pumkin on his head.

Here's some photos from two visits to LTT party nights:

we did LTT last year, it was just OK, not great. Although the place was convenient for the party, we have decided to do the concourse this year...it's right on the monorail

They dress up in colonial attire at LTT and for halloween they have masks and such..i'll post some pics for you to see...

We're going 10/26 to MNSSHP and have LLT adr's for 5:30. We planned to eat here anyway, as we love the colonial dressed characters, so this will be an extra treat!!!

I have ressies for Crystal Palace that night at 4:00....Since I can't get 4:00 at LTT, I might as well cancel the LTT and stick with CP....

BTW, when we went to MNSSHP in 2003, we got to the gates around 3:30. I was so desperate (and not thinking, obviously!) to get inside, I was just about to waste one whole day on my hopper pass just to get in to our dinner ressies at CP for 4:00!!!!
THank God the CM at the turnstile knocked some sense into my head....She said, don't worry, don't waste a whole day on your hopper. I will let you in at exactly 4:00 and you will be able to make your reservation for dinner. She said that the computer in the turnstile would not recognize the MNSSHP ticket until 4:00 or after.

Then my husband berated me on not thinking, again!

So, yes, you have hope...Don't cancel those ressies!!!! Besides, I think the restaurant host waits ten minutes before giving your table away. That should be plenty of time to get there if you arrive at the turnstile before 4:00
