Anyone else can't get a lunch LeCellier ADR in late December?

[kendzee94]

So today is my 180 for our Christmas trip. I was not able to find LeCellier for lunch at all, any of the days we are there 12/18-28 (today is the 12/28 first booking day). So what do you think? Are they waiting to see about Candlelight Processional bookings first?

I would say yes.

I ran into the same problem for early Dec. at Garden Grill, a week later i was able to get the ADR

The rumor is that they are being held for Candlelight Processional Dinning Packages

I am not even sure I want to go there, but I started trying at 6 am each day (at 180 day mark) for dec 7-11 and got nothing for lunch or dinner.

Eventually i got a 9 pm for 2 for dec 8 emh night, but I think I am going to cancel it. If anyone is interested in when I might cancel it PM me please.

Is it possible that it's booked up from people who could book 180 + 10 days? I'm afraid I'll run into that when I go to book NYE.

But maybe I won't have a problem, yesterday DH told me, "We'll get in, not everyone plans this stuff out like you do" Shows you who plans all of our WDW trips!

99.999999% doubtful. I checked our early Dec reservation for the 10th day (1st time anyone could have gotten an ADR) and there were 0 lunches available at 4-5 Epcot restaurants (GG, Le Cell, Coral Reef, couple others).

I'm also thinking doubtful as there was NOTHING available when I was online for my 180 +10 at 6am this morning. Not even the +10 day, which meant that today was the first day for that 10th day. I've seen times when you get a funky time like 3:10 or 2:50.

We also were only able to get the 8:10pm for GG on Christmas Eve. I booked it because I want a back up, in case I can't get what I want when the CP opens up.

So, out of 10 ADR's I was able to get my pick time on 8 of them, with three alternates! HDDR is not available yet, but booked two back ups for that also! Cape May will be a good alternate if we can't get into Le Cellier.

Has anyone reached a point yet where they can check the schedule for a day AFTER the CP ends? I think it seems lighly likely that they haven't released ANY of these ADR's yet for a certain timeframe. The only reports of success I've seen were from people who got something for dinner after 8 PM.

I think it's pretty clear they are holding these up until they decide how many they want each day for CP packages.

I really do think it's rotten to hold up ALL the times like this. People CAN plan to be diligent and get up early to make their ADR's at the right time to get what they want. But to expect them to just sit and watch for day....... and weeks........... maybe months????? is just rotten.

I have to agree with you 100%, this just royally stinks!!! it not only has me aggravated, but nervous about having to come and check a few times a day for something to maybe open up. they should decided how many packages ahead of time and allow for a certain number of NON CP packages for other guests, it just isnt fair. Now that they have released the CP narrators, maybe the dining will begin to go on sale...

[Tinkerbell's mama]
