How long does it take from the time someone cancels until the opening appears online for scheduling?

Wondering the same thing as I'm trying to coordinate a cancellation with someone to try to snag. Should they try immediately when I cancel?

Just a FYI for anyone else wanting to do this - it worked! We coordinated by email and I shot an email then cancelled and the other DIS'er tried right away and got our Le Cellier! :thumbsup2 So it came up almost instantaneously for her once I got my cancellation.

Yes, they should try immediately when you cancel. I actually snagged Le Cellier today from somebody that I coordinated with. We picked a time when he would cancel and I made sure I was logged into the Disney site, filled out the ressie info that I knew he would be cancelling (date, time, and place) and I just kept hitting search for reservation and when he cancelled, I immediatley picked it up. The whole process took under less than 2 minutes. Good luck!!:thumbsup2
 


If you can't ask for something specific, then how can you find someone who is going to cancel a ressie that you want?

Now that you are subscribed to this thread, you should receive email notifications when someone makes a post. (If you aren't set up for this, shoot me a PM and I can help you set up your subscriptions)

Just scan the posts for those either those offering to cancel their reservations and coordinate with another board member, or those announcing I am canceling X on Y.
 
Yes, once a time was decided on this process was very easy - thanks Marcie for working with me on this reservation. Really excited to be going to LeCellier at an excellent time :yay:

Okay, I am going to cancel all my remaining ADR's on Thursday morning (June 10th) right at 9am central time. So far I've transfered two Le Cellier's and a Chef Mickey and the other people have been able to pick them up without issue when we cancelled/tried at a set time. If anyone is interested in any of these, but unable to go online Thu AM, just let me know and we can try to set up another time! All of these reservations are for 4 people (it was for 2 adults and 2 teens).

Think that 'Ohana would work for a family of 5? 2 adults, 2 juniors, 1 child?
 
Well, we could try me cancelling at a time and you picking it up. You could always check for 5 or 4, but I'm guessing only the 4 would show up. There are a zillion threads on adding a person - in general they nearly always work with you, but it's harder going from a 4 to a 5 than a 3 to a 4 in general. Would be up to you if you wanted to try.
 
I will be cancelling 2 Chef Mickey reservations- one for bfast and one for dinner. We love it there but have been to CM's so many times that we decided to try something new. They are really good time slots so I hope this helps someone. I would gladly try to coordinate to cancel/rebook, so pls pm me. They are both for 4 people (2 adults, 2 kids):

Sat, 8/21 9:20 am
Fri, 8/27 at 6:30 pm

I will be cancelling by tomorrow night if I don't hear from anyone.

Hope someone can use one or both!

No biggie... I will give it a shot at work on Thursday AM (if the site isn't blocked!)... we have an ADR for the Garden Grill at Epcot that day, but I had wanted the 'Ohana dinner.
