Booking ADR's For Your Entire Stay.

[JohnCat]

Can someone please help? My ADR availability opens up on September 8 for a November 7 arrival. Just got off the phone with a cast member who told me that I could only make reservations for one day at a time, not for the entire stay. Did that really change? Reading through the different threads I really can't find a definitive answer. I visited last November but don't remember that change.

As long as you're staying onsite you can book for your entire trip (up to 10 days) at 60 days prior to checkin. If you're staying offsite it would be one day at a time.

So a lot of us here are and have had having similar issues. For me, it took a lot of just re typing and re searching on both the app and the website. I did call and was able to look for my entire trip, but ultimately couldn't book what I was looking for once I had booked online.
Try your Disney Springs and resort reservations first as those came up right away for later in our trip.

The one thing I did have trouble with that others didn't was reserving my lightsaber and droid build. I couldn't do it until 60 days out from my park pass for DHS, but others were able to do it during their dining window. It was bizarre.

Also do note the other day when CRT reopened for breakfast a bunch of us were on here and we all had to basically log out of MDE, close out the browser, reopen the browser and sign in again for it to go through.

Also as mentioned above if you are staying offsite its one day at a time.

It's especially tough for west coasters to wake up 2:30am for the 5:45/6am ADR release.

Bizarre. The DVC CM operator knew I was staying at OKW and still insisted that I could only do one reservation at a time and had to wait for the next day. How can they get something so basic, so wrong?

And they are telling us that we have to do that 6 or 7 days in a row! Thank God I live in the Central time zone !

If you booked a 7 day on-site stay, then they should all show up on the day 60. If not call back till you find a CM who can help.

If we are staying on site for 11 days are we only able to book 7 days at a time?

It should be 60+10 days, then 1 more the day after to finish your 11th day For booking availability.

My window opens up in a few days for the 60 day ADR window--however, we are staying at two different DVC resorts, back-to-back. Am I correct that my 60+10 window only applies to the first reservation? To book ADR's for the second half of the stay I have to wait for the 60 window from the first day of the second reservation? Does it make any difference if I book by phone--can they see both reservations and make the full 10 days?

I've already heard about the difficulty that many have add getting ANY ADR's through the clunky online booking system--I assume this is an ongoing problem?

Prepandemic, DVC members could call MS to book an entire split stay, up to 10 days. My understanding is that hasn’t been the case since reopening - however, now that MS staffing seems to have improved, maybe they’ll start doing it again!

Can I just get confirmation if anyone knows - I have a split stay 11/20-11/24 and 11/24-11/29. Tomorrow is my ADR day for the 11/20 stay. Can I book the whole trip (10 days), or do I have to wait for the second reservation 60-day mark to book 11/25-11/29? This is a regular resort reservation, not DVC.

You have to wait for the second 60-day mark. Sorry.

You have to wait for the second 60-day mark. Sorry.

That's actually what I was expecting I just wanted to confirm. Follow-up. I have 2 people who will be joining us for dinner on 11/24 that aren't on our reservation. Can I make the reservation for a party size that includes them (which is bigger than my 3 person resort reservation)?

(I used to know ALL of these details but since Covid happened I haven't been able to keep up / want to make sure there were no changes / etc.)

Yes, your ADRs can be for as many guests as you’d like. No one has to be a resort guest. The only requirement would be to have a ticket and park reservation to eat at an in-park restaurant. Outside the parks the restaurants are open to all.
