Best day to check in for max ADR success

[Donald Duck888]

My window for ADR's opens tomorrow and I have been thinking about this question and just figured i would get the thoughts of others on it. I figure Monday would probably be the worst day to check in to get ADR's +10 as i would guess most people check in on Sundays. So would Friday probably be the best to beat both Saturday and Sunday check ins by 1 day? Just curious on the thoughts of others on this.

Best day: A time not including a holiday or free dining.

Worst day: A holiday or free dining.

Yep so true. But as we are going during free dining kind of stuck on that one. lol

My window opens tomorrow 2--that means 180 days to go--yeah!!!! It stinks though that ADRs will be very difficult due to free dining--I didn't get it since I'm staying on points. There are only really 2 restaurants that I absolutely want to get, but I don't care when during my 9 day trip--I have my fingers crossed. Hope all of you get what you want as well!

I hope you are able to get what you are hoping for

I don't think it matters. No matter what day you check in ( thus determining your 180 day), people have already been booking ADRs for at up to 10 days for your first day. The only way you've got a clean shot at any ADRs is for your 10th day (assuming you're staying that long).

How did you guys make out?

We got everything we wanted except BOG. There were no BOG dinner openings at any time on our planned MK days. I also found it strange that there were no Tony's ADR's? Tony's isn't typically sold out ever so something must be up there.

We got everything (except one rose and crown) that we wanted at the times we wanted including an 8am BOG breakfast so as to hopefully get on mine train early that day.

Awesome!!

There were lunch openings at BOG, but no dinner ones. No big deal for us. We like the place, but the food is just average.

We have eaten at R & C every trip, but have decided to expend our horizons this time and try some other places.
