Sorry I'm a little late on this thread. Posted over on the restaurant boards by mistake.

Date: Thursday, November 28th
Dining Time: 4:10pm
Restaurant: Le Cellier
Performance Time: 6:45pm
Narrator: John O'Hurley

Called right at 7am and was on hold for about 20 minutes. Got where and when I wanted, so I was pretty happy.

Made sure I was clear in stating that I was on the MYW dining plan, which she said has been "flagged" on the reservation, but that they needed a cc to hold the reservation. She said it would not be charged unless I cancelled less than 48 hours in advance or was a no-show at the restaurant.

Was going to do the 5:40pm dinner with the 8:15pm show, but as I'll be up and at the park early for the AM EMH, thought I'd be a wee bit tired by then. This way I can enjoy a nice meal, see a great show, then head over to the Arch of Lights for a little while, the over to the front entrance afterwards to miss the big crowds after Illuminations.

Great news-----called at 9:50 am ---on hold 3 minutes ---was able to reserve LeCellier at 5PM on December 4 for the 8:15 Performance !
We are SO HAPPY since this is a Family tradition for us --part of our Holiday celebration! We have never dined at LeCellier for CP so this is the New part of our tradition!

I could only get Le Cellier on Dec. 20th for two tables for our party
of 5. Hope it works out that we can sit together. We are eating
at 5:40.

Think we have a chance at one table ?

Cancelled regular ADR for Le Cellier for 12/20 at 6:10.

Called at 9:30 and was on hold for only about 5 minutes. I got a 5:00 dinner reservation at Alfredo's for the 8:15 Candlelight show. Rita Moreno is the scheduled speaker. This will be our first time seeing this and am excited.

I got mine too- no wait on the phone because I was able to make my ressie through DVC. Ahhh.... it's good to be a DVC member! ;-)

Anyway- we'll be there Dec. 12 5:30 at Le Cellier! YIPEEEE!

I am soooo excited for sure this year because my son may be singing at the 8:15pm show as part of the Disney CM's choir (the choir in the middle of the stage)! I sure hope so!

Ohmigosh, how exciting for you!!! I hope he gets to sing!!

I'm feeling a little guilty--

I forgot about it and called about an hour ago. No wait on the phone and I got my Christmas day reservations at Le Cellier.

Pixie Dust I guess...

I was having the BC IPO office make our ressie, and they seem to have used my initial request for Alfredo's instead of my later Teppanyaki or Marakesh request. This is for Dec. 3 the 8:15 show. We did, however, get a 5:30 ADR at Alfredo. So, I am torn between keeping that as the dining time is quite reasonable, but concerned as I have seen many bad reviews of Alfredo's. Would anyone try to switch to Teppanyaki or Marakesh instead? (One of the reasons we looked at those was the proximity to the theater so we would not have to be rushed with DD4.)

Okay, how did you do that? I'm a DVC member and didn't know that you can call MS for dinner reservations. Please let me know, as I new to this.

Thanks!

Call me the offical CP Cheerleader!!

Hooray for everyone who got what they wanted to day and best of luck to all of those who are still trying!!!​

Julia...yes, MS can make dining reservations for you. If you listen to the option prompts when calling, they even mention that "press X if making reservations at the DVC resorts or dining reservations", or something like that.

I have used them a few times now and while they are not "dining experts" like you'd get at the main number, they definitely can do pretty much everything including Fantasmic Dinner packages and the CP package.

I booked this morning through MS and got Le Cellier on Dec 26 at 5:10. No waiting on the phone here either.

Julia-
All you have to do is call MS at the regular 800 number and follow the prompts as if you are going to make a ressie for a room. The CM there also makes any ADR's you will need- including ressies if you are doing the Dining Package. And yes, I did have them make the DP for CP for me.

Good Luck!

 

[allflgirl]

Thanks, Granny and Karebear1. I'll remember this in the future. I was on hold this morning for nearly an hour trying to get my CP reservations. I'll call MS next time.

Thanks again.

I'm glad to know this as well as I'm also a DVC member! Thanks!

 

[a*lil*bit*goofy]

I wasn't able to call until 810 this morning, and i was on hold until 835. I was able to get mum's ressies on Monday December 4th at 5pm (her orig ADR was for 450pm because of availability) with the later show.

I was able to get mine on Tuesday December 5th at 540 pm (latest time for res. for the last show) my orig ADR was for 550pm. I was hoping for after 6pm reservation, but it won't work with the CP.

Yea!!!

 

[Chim Chiminy]

I made my ADR thru DVC member services. Called at 1:50 and was able to get the date and time I wanted.
Dec. 4 at Le Cellier party of 8 at 4pm, seeing the 6:45 show.

Yay!
The CM was great to, asked if I had seen the CP before and when I said no she shared some of her experience.
