anyone else having trouble this morning???

[jdd]

First, I'm getting a really fast busy signal, then I finally get through and I get Victoria & Alberts! I swear I said no at that prompt! So, the CM was really nice and told me I'd have to call back and hit 1 all the way through - another round of busy signals, get through finally, and I hit all 1s. Guess what - I got V&A again!!! I'm getting very frustrated!!!

 

[jdd]

Okay, at least now I'm on hold - but current wait time is more than 30 minutes

Hope everyone else is having luck!

Sorry you're having problems. I got through right away and had no problems making my ADR for September 5th.

Unfortunately, since I'm staying at the Dolphin, I was only able to make the first day's reservation. I'm not looking forward to doing this call thing at 7am every day, for the next few days, so I might wait until Wednesday and make the rest of my reservations at once.

Here's hoping you get everything you want...

30+ minute wait time here too .....

Hey jdd,

Also on hold (called at 7am). The automated system told me less than 14 minutes, but it has been at leat 17 minutes now. Not the experience I was hoping for, yesterday was apparently a better day for adr's.

GOOD LUCK!

What's everyone trying for? My big one is CP - 8:00am breakfast on 9/7 - if I get that it's all worth it!

'Ohana is on my list as well, for 9/7, 9/8 or 9/10. So, if we both get 9/7 - see you there

 

[jdd]

Woopee!

Be sure to let us know how you do before you go back to sleep!

 

[Heatherly30]

telling me separate tables..experiences? Could they seat us together?

 

[KKB]

I called at EXACTLY 6AM & just got done...
We are a party of 7, and like to eat earlier...
Got everything we wanted, all between 4:25(Le Cellier!)-6:25, only separate tables at Le Cellier & Boma. (weird at Boma, they have those long tables!!) Le Cellier was the only one I had to choose a second day.
Sun. 9/6 50s Prime Time (Dad will get a kick out of that)
Mon. 9/7 WCC
Tues. 9/8 Ohana
Weds. 9/9 Le Cellier
Thurs. 9/10 Jiko
Fri. 9/11 Boma
Sat. 9/12 The Wave
SO other than the hold time, that was PRETTY painless...I had more difficulty 180 days out NOT during FDDP Oct. 2007! Makes you wonder...
Good luck everyone!

I got everything I wanted this morning, but I had to be super flexible with Le Cellier (4:40 on our 4th day!Boo!!!).

Not sure what you are looking for on 9/7 at 8:00, but I could only get Crystal Palace at 8:30.

 

[jdd]

Woohoo! Just finished up - had the greatest CM ever! Got most everything, except no luck with 'Ohana - tried three different nights, and gave a wide timing window, but just wasn't possible. I also had to switch around days quite a bit, but here's what I got:

9/6 Teppan Edo 4:30 dinner (we wanted it early)
9/7 Crystal Palace 8:10 breakfast (my main objective!)
9/8 Boma 7:30pm
9/9 Biergarten 6:15pm
9/10 Chef Mickey 5:00pm

So I still have one more - dinner on 9/7 - any suggestions anyone? We'll be at MK that day. I think I'll still keep trying for 'Ohana...

 

[jdd]

Not sure what you are looking for on 9/7 at 8:00, but I could only get Crystal Palace at 8:30.

I was able to get CP at 8:10 - woohoo! Now, we'll just have to eat fast to get to BTMRR by 9:00am.

 

[Heatherly30]

Alrighty...got everything we wanted except Le Cellier (only had separate tables, and we can't do that with a 3 and 5 year old).

Dinners:
9/5 @7:10 Ohana
9/6 @ 7:00 San Angel Inn
9/7 @ 6:10 Teppan Edo
9/8 @ 7:30 California Grill (me and hubby only)
9/9 @ 5:05 Boma
9/10 @ 6:35 Whispering Canyon (this was my alternate to Le Cellier)
9/11 @ 6:30 Biergarten

Lunch at Sci Fi Dine on 9/6 @ 12:30

Breakfast:
9/9 @9:20 Akershus
9/12 @8:30 Chef Mickey's


YAY!! The suspense and obsession is OVER! I'm really ok not having Le Cellier...Whispering Canyon will be more appropriate for the kids. Now, if I could figure out how to get my son a Kona Cone without having to get a reservation...do they sell them at Captain Cook's? If not, maybe I'll book around lunch for a dessert only.

Good Luck everyone!

Just got off the phone ... my CM was really great once I was done waiting. I was on hold for 30 minutes


Here are my plans:

9/5 Bistro de Paris 7:30pm (exactly what I wanted)

9/6 Wave 8:15pm

9/7 Ohana 9:30pm ... this is a little late for me, but this is the only place my fiance wants to eat. Will keep calling to get an earlier time

9/8 None. Made arrangements to meet a fellow Dis-er at Le Cellier at 6:15 as they have 2 extra seats on their ADR!

9/9 50s Prime Time cafe 1 pm

9/10 Crystal Palce 9:10 am
California Grill 5:55 pm

I started calling at 6:55 and got through right at 7. No waiting at all. I got everything I wanted. Breakfast at Chef Mickey's and Ohana. Dinner at LTT, Sci-Fi, Coral Reef, Crystal Palace and TREX. I forgot about TREX and had to call back. I was on hold for about 20 minutes for the second call, but had no problem getting TREX. Good luck to everyone.
