at the Poly 12/26-12/29 before my New Year's Cruise
Here are the ones I made today:

12/26 Arrival Lunch at Kona
12/26 Dinner at Spoodles
12/27 Breakfast at Crystal Palace
12/27 Dinner at 'Ohana
12/28 Dinner at Sci Fi (we're doing room service breakfast that day)
12/29 Breakfast at Kona

I am kind of bummed I have to wait until next week to make the other half of my reservations for 1/2- 1/4 (I am staying an extra 2 nights in WDW *after* the cruise, too) since it's a different reservation number, but I'm really excited that I got everything I wanted within 10 minutes of my preferred times. I am thrilled and cannot wait to walk down Main Street before MK even opens! The CM told me to make sure I have my confirmation number or I won't get in. I'm thinking of getting it tattooed (just kidding!)

Woo hoo!

We wil be at the GF for Christmas Weekend. Dinner 12/24 will be at Citricos and CP on 12/25 with dinner at Rose and Crown!! Don't tell anyone..It's a surprise for DS11 and DD14....

 

[Connears]

Wow! Everyone's choices look great. We have been to BOMA and Teppanyaki and Donald's breakfast the last three years and just wanted a switch(although these and Kona are DS's favorites). We may end up at Wolfgang Puck's as an add-on..what have others thought of the cafe?

Counting down!

What time is your Calif.Grille and CRT? Seems lunch IS easier to get than breakfast on that one! I arrive Christmas day pretty late, so my dinner isn't until 9pm. I wonder if anyone knows if they'll let my family up onto the Observation Deck for the fireworks, even if we're not yet seated for dinner.

 

[jacksmom]

I am working on our Holiday ADR's also! It will be our first trip during the Holidays! I have noticed most of you have booked the CP pkg? Can someone explain this to me? And, do you put a deposit down to book??Thanks for any info!

I tried for 8:30 because we don't arrive in Orlando till 5:30, but all they had was 8:10 or 9:00 so we grabbed the 8:10. I hope we make it! I'm sure they will let you on the observation deck while you are waiting to be seated.

I tried CRT a few days before & they said all seats were gone, but to try on the 90 day mark so I did & got right in. I read other posts saying that since the princesses are there for lunch now, that it fills up almost as fast as the breakfast. Anyway I am dying to try major domo's favorite pie that I keep seeing so I definitely wanted lunch!

We have done the CP the last 2 years (Le Cellier, Teppanyaki), but decided not to do it this year. You choose the restaurant and the cost is on a 3 tier system. They will take a CC# when you book, but I don't know the cancellation policy. If you have not seen the CP it is definitely worth it to have the reserved seating entry time. It is beautiful, very moving. We saw the last show and ate berfore at le Cellier and saw the early show and then ate after at Teppanyaki last year.

I tried for 8:30 because we don't arrive in Orlando till 5:30,

Are you flying on AA out of Logan? Wouldn't it be a kick if we were on the same flight????
