It is 7am yes. I am in the UK so I have to call at midday here which is 7am there.

Good luck!

Thanks!! I do not usually call at the 90 day mark ,BUT July looks like it may be VERY busy with all the GREAT deals WDW is offering. So I just told DH to wake me up at 6:50am, even though my DS is on school vacation. Joan

i started calling this morning at 6:55, kept getting the not open message and hitting redial, then I hear the magic sound and get through in like 2 minutes, make my have to have ressies in less than 15, now I just have to figure out what else I want so I can call back.

Very quick and painless, thanks Louisa

Hi, I called right at 7am and waited 10-15 min. for a CM. It was fine I was in no hurry and listened to the Disney Music while I had my coffee. The only "problem" I encountered was I have 3 reservations with 3 reservation #'s. I am a DVC member and could not get my whole stay at BCV,so I have 7/12-16(at SSR and I am Wait listed for BCV) which I was able to make my ADRS for. But the 7/17-19 are actually 2 seperate res. and I have to wait till 4/18 to book 7/17 and 4/18 to book 7/18&19. Which means 2 more mornings of 7am during school vacation!! There should be a way to over ride this in the system ?? (I have another post about this but nobody has answered yet?? ) Joan

WOW!! I just noticed your vacation ticker for July/August 09!! 31 days FANTASTIC!! I noticed you are starting at Universal and so are we 7/7-12 then WDW 7/12-19. We will be staying at Portofino Bay for the first time. We have already stayed at HRH and RPR and both were GREAT. My 2 DS are 21 and 15 and LOVE the coasters at Universal/IOA!! WDW is MY FAVORITE but I do enjoy Universal and the resort areas,as well as City Walk. Joan

We are also DVC members and I am going to have this problem with my July/August ADRs too as we have a fair few split stays. It is a pain.

I am so looking forward to this trip. The longest we have been before is 3 weeks so to have even more time will be great. As we are travelling from the UK, the longer we get in the sunshine the better!

Really looking forward to our stay at the RPR. We have been there before but only for a couple of nights, we have a week there this time. We really enjoyed the HRH too but found the RPR more relaxing. We have yet to try the Portofino but it looks so pretty there.

Best of luck with your remaining ADRs. I have a little while until I can make mine.

We are the same as you really, our heart is with Disney but we love all the parks and try to do them all each visit.
