checking on ADR'S?

[cernermom]

Do most of you check on your ADR'S before leaving for WDW? If so, how far in advance do you check? Thanks!

For me personally, I just confirm everything if I call to change something. As far a special call just to confirm things, I don't. I know that strange things can happen, but I have my confirmation numbers, and I know my times and everything, that's good enough for me. I've had no problems so far...

No, I don't. I have the confirmation numbers and all the other information I need. I repeat the confirmation number to the CM to make sure I have it right and they confirm the time, place and number of people on the call when I make the ADR. I don't feel the need to call back and get it all again. I figure if I show up with that information at a restaurant, I'm good to go.

I'm a frequent visitor and diner, I've never confirmed an ADR after the intial call and I've never had a problem.

If you're staying on-property, you can have all of your ADR's printed out for you by the lobby concierge desk staff upon arrival.

I don't call and confirm mine, since they give me a confirmation number at the time of making the ADR. Never had a problem.

Nope, couldn't be bothered doing something that seems unnecessary. In my many trips they've never "lost" a reservation of mine, and if they did we'd deal with it at the podium.

Like the previous poster, I really don't have to-in about 25 trips, only once have they screwed up an ADR (wrong date). However, if I have time, I do call a couple days before the trip to verify all my ADRs, not because I have to, but because it's just all part of the pre-trip excitement.

I don't confirm and never had a problem. I do make sure I take all the confirmation numbers with us (in obsessive spreadsheets) which seems to work fine.

I confirmed one time...only because the CM did not seem real confident on the phone. Normally I do not confirm, and I have never had a problem.

As long as you keep track of your confirmation numbers you should be fine. I actually had a bad experience last week. I realized I was missing some of my ADR confirmation numbers so I called to have the CM go over them with me and they ended up cancelling some of them as they were going through. Fortunately I had ended up calling back for something and they told me some had been cancelled, so unless you have to, I would just let it go. If you're really worried about it, go to guest relations at your hotel and they can probably print you out a copy or review them with you.
