Can't link my Orbitz reservation

[mommy23]

I booked 2 rooms at Disney last night with Orbitz. I tried linking my reservations this morning but MDE can't find them. Do I need to wait 24 hours to link? Or should I just call Disney now?

Not completely sure how it works with room reservations, but is bought park tickets through Orbitz and was able to link them to MDE. I had to email Orbitz and ask for "Disney's Magical code number". It wasn't called that but something similar. You need the code number for your reservation that Disney recognizes. So, just contact Orbitz and ask for that type of number. The Orbitz confirmation numbers don't do anything in the MDE app.

Call orbitz and get the Disney confirmation number. Sounds like you're trying the orbitz confirmation.

The Orbitz confirmation gave me two 6 character (numbers and letters) hotel confirmations (reserved 2 rooms). They provided a link to MDE and said to use those confirmations to link my reservations. Did that and neither were recognized.

I used the 6 character hotel confirmation number and was able to link with no issue.

It took around 24 hours before I could link my Priceline reservation to MDE.

We have 2 rooms booked through Orbitz as well. I do not know if there is a time frame that you have to wait before linking as we waited a few days. I would say wait a day or two and if you are still having problems you might have to call.

We had a problem linking one of our rooms. One room linked fine and the other one wouldn't. DH called Disney and they were not seeing a reservation under the name and confirmation # but said that more than likely the room is booked but there is something messed up along the way and suggested we called Orbitz to verify with them. DH then called Orbitz and after a bit of checking they figured out the the last name on the problem reservation was mistyped. In our confirmation it was showing it spelled correctly but in their system it was spelled wrong. After they fixed the spelling it linked fine.
