Actually, I'm not 100% sure. I think Fantasmic is 48 hours but I think PSB is 24 hours or maybe CRT is 24 hours. I know that they are not all the same though. If you just tell yourself they're all 48 hours, you'll be all set!!

I am going to cancel an ADR for CRT breakfast for five on Tuesday Dec. 12th. If anyone is interested in trying to snatch it after I cancel, let me know and we can coordinate a time. I want to cancel it by Friday so I can take it off my to do list.

Mistaroo,

I PM'd you. Thanks!!

 

[blewits]

Don't laugh but it doesn't hurt to ask.

If anyone is going to cancel a character meal at CRT, please PM me and let me know. Anytime thru the dates of Dec 11-17. I'm desperate, I'll take whatever I can get. Princess must be present though, DD age 4 present.

I also have a Chef Mickey dinner ressie for Friday, Dec 16th at 7:50 for 5. I think 6 people can actually sit at that table.

Send me a PM if you would like the Chef Mickey ressie. Oh yeah, and then tell me what to do. I've never done this before and am ignorant to the ways of this system, oh mighty dissers!

Hi - New to boards, new to Disney...totally in a planning frenzy. 1st trip with family booked for 2/26/05-3/4. Have 4 yr old daughter that MUST meet Cinderella. Have calendar marked for tomorrow to book Once Upon...breakfast and just learned that you now can book 6 months out; not 90 days. Entire week is booked already!!! I am crushed! Apparently they changed the timeframe 4 days after I booked our trip.

Any ideas on what to do now? Anyone ever go to the Princess breakfast at Epcot? So much wanted to bring my girl to the castle for breakfast....I am really heartbroken.

Any advice appreciated....

You might want to try 1900 Park Faire at the Grand Floridian. They have a dinner buffet with Cinderella and Friends. I have read on the boards that the Storybook Breakfast is good, but I'm not sure if Cinderella is there. Did you try for lunch or dinner in the castle? Good luck!

I know how you feel. I almost missed booking for our April trip. I happened to mention that we were going to go in April too, while talking to the CM booking something for our December trip. She said that she had walked into work that morning and found out about the change! You're not alone! I would try calling throughout the day when you think about it, or during the last two hours CS is opened. I used to cancel my ressies at night, during the week of, in some cases.
I was successful in finding someone who was going to drop one of their ressies, by posting what I needed on this thread, or one like it. It works! I don't know if you also realized that the price is going up significantly for the CRT after February too. Plus, you have to put the whole amount on your credit card at time of booking! I don't know how many more we can go to since my daughter just picks at her food until the Princesses come by our table.

I would have been too in your case!

In my case, I could not have been too much since it was our lack of planning that caused us to miss CRT breakfast. We are very happy to have lunch booked though. I would try that and then cancel lunch if/when you are able to find a breakfast opening. We have Cinderella at the GF booked for her bday dinner and lunch for a day or two after that.

Good luck!

Without reading thru a ton of these messages, I am curious about something. I know the 180 days ADR is new but can you book CRT on another one of your vacation days at your 180 mark of the BEGINNING of your vacation. I know basic restaurants with a disney ressie you can, but is it the same for CRT as well?

Thanks

 

[blewits]

I could use any CRT brkfst or Lunch ressie for ANY amount of people anytime Dec 11 - 17. Have a 3 1/2 year old who will think Cinderella is "real", and who also wants to be a princess when she grows up.

I missed my window because we started planning the trip to late.

C'mon y'all - throw me some Disney love!

Me, too! I'm looking for Dec. 14, breakfast or lunch. I've been calling twice every day, but with no luck.

Just wanted to say that last week we did lunch at CRT and I have to thank this board for helping me learn how to get those ressies!!

We had a ball--my 6 yr old DD was thrilled (my 4 yr old DS even got some kisses from Snow White and Aurora) and even my parents loved it. It was worth every penny!!

We met Cinderella, Fairy Godmother, Belle, Aurora, Snow White, and Mary Poppins. The food was good and it was a great experience for all of us!!

Lisa Sp: Sorry but OT:
What are children served for an appetizer as well as dessert at the CRT lunch?
Thanks
Suzy

 

[LisaSp]

The kids' appetizer was some carrots and dip along with cheese cubes and grapes. For dessert, they got a scoop of ice cream with chocolate syrup, topped with a chocolate crown. My kids loved it! The only thing not great was DD ordered just buttered noodles and they tasted a little funky. DS got the baked pasta with sauce and cheese which was much better, but my DD doesn't like tomato sauce.

Suzanne74,

I called on Tuesday for our May 28th trip and was able to secure a May 31 CRT breakfast slot. There was only 2 left!!!! OMG!! It is for my cousin though. I am not going this time since prices have went so high. So just her and the girls are going. We have been 3 times already.

So yes....At the start of you trip you can secure times for up to 10 days of your trip.

That makes getting CRT kind of tricky!! I was surprised that there was already only 2 time slots left for May 31?? Well not really!! That breakfast is so popular.

It is hard to figure out where you wan to eat 6 months from now.

I got our favorites set up for now.

Good luck!

 

[DreaminDisney]

With new policy, do you think we still have to call 180 days before for both breakfast or dinner? My 180 day mark is coming up in a couple weeks and I'm just not sure yet if we want CRT breakfast or dinner.

 

[BABYJOSIE98]

I don't know how fast dinner books up,but it looks like CRT breakfast still gets totally booked up quickly.

All I know is if you are coming in on say May 28 then you can book starting with that day and then up to 10 days worth of dining. As long as you are staying on site.

good luck!

Thanks for response!
I'll let you know how booked it is at 180 day mark in a couple weeks
We've had breakfast there and think we may want to try dinner next time. Wanted to do both but changed that plan when dining there changed to 2 TS credits per meal as of 2/06
