What is the best way to get a reservation ? I waited my 60 days and was very suprised to learn today that it was sold out for the entire week of my stay ! Apparently the 60 day wait was change to 90 days just recently and my travel agent never informed me of the change, despite knowing I wanted to go to Cinderalla's breakfast. Isn't that something a travel agent should do ? Do people post their cancellations here ? If so, I need one for 10/17 - 10/23.

I have not been to these board in a while but if can help me get a reservation I might be here more often

Any help or advice is appreciate.

She told me I was the best!! Not trying to upset anyone that hasnt been able to get in. I'm just very excited!!!!

Hello,

I just wanted to let someone who might be needing it know I will be cancelling our CRT priority seating for Friday, September 26 at 10:20 for a party of 4. I'm not sure how this would work, but if someone interested in this time emailed me, perhaps we could set up a time where I would cancel the PS then that person could call shortly thereafter and try to get the PS. I don't know if this will work as one person who just recently posted said her cancellation still has not gone through three days later! Anyways, I'll wait until tomorrow (Wednesday) evening to hear from somebody who might be interested. If I have not heard from anybody, I'll just plan to call in my cancellation on Thursday morning.

Good luck to everyone still trying for their PS!

Take care,
Amy

We went to Cindy's on thursday, August 7th. I had tried 60 days prior and got through on the first try! But I paid my dues last year when I tried six days in a row with no luck at all.

We had a PS for 8:50am and thursdays are EE day at MK.

We got in right at 8 when they opened (fun to see a little girl in a Cinderella outfit be picked to "open" the MK with some pixie dust!

We rode Snow White's Scary Adventure, Peten Pan's Flight and Small World before it was time to get over to the Castle.

There was no line and no one waiting in the first floor castle room (which has a fireplace, a royal chair, and Jaq and Gus above the fireplace if you look really close). So we took some pics of DD6 in the royal throne. Then DW and DD6 went upstairs and I stayed down to take a pic of them.

Then we all went up (take the elevator and the stairs, they're both neat!) and were seated at our table.

DD6 grinned like crazy when she saw Cinderella, Mary Popping, Belle, Snow White and Sleeping Beauty walking around from table to table.

I thought the breakfast was great. Scrambled eggs, bacon, giant link sausages, a pastry with blueberrys, french toast stick, fruit and probably more I am forgetting. Big glass glasses of milk too!

I ordered a second plate and they bring the same plate as the first, just eat what you like and then maybe get a third!

The Princesses were all great. We got lots of pictures.

Well worth all they effort you are putting into calling!!!!

When we went downstairs after eating, the Fairy Godmother was on the throne taking pics with all the kids waiting to go upstairs.

Truly a Disney moment to be treasured!

Keep calling!

Here's my problem...

My family (husband, 4y/o daughter, 2 y/o son, mom and dad) rented DVC points and are going on a magical vacation in a 2BR villa.....it is also my (and husband's) anniversary (our honeymoon was at WDW as well).

We waited the 60 days out to call for PS at CRT and at that point were informed the rules had changed 1 week prior, therefore EVERYTHING is booked.

The PS operator told me that people vacationing had booked blocks , since they could, and then they can "choose" once the vacation gets here....

I am begging...someone who had done this would have it in their Disney heart to give up a seating, if they have multiple booked my week of coarse.

I really need a table for 6 but a table for 4 would be just as wonderful.....my daughter just wants to eat in the, "Palace with Cinderella."

October 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, or 14

Please email me....ayimapt@aol.com

Hi Everyone.

My friend Deb recommended that I check out this site so here I am.
I love WDW and was married there just over 5 years ago in a Disney FairyTale Wedding.
We are going back November 28-December4 for the first time since our wedding. We can't wait to take our 2 kids to the place we were married!
My 4 1/2 year old daughter is beyond excited about it all.
We are of course hoping to dine at Cinderella's Castle and I was shocked when I came across this board and saw how hard it might be to get in.
Thank goodness I got these great hints for being able to possibly get in there.
Hope to get to know you all better.

Same exact situation as ayimapt (above), very upset to learn of the policy change. My daughter would love to eat breakfast with the princesses at Epcot if anyone has a reservation for 4 from 10/17 - 10/23.

 

[JBurke]

As an alternative, try for 1900 Park Fare for dinner with Cindy, the Prince,the mice and Fairy Godmother.

We just did this, the Cindy breakfast and the Norway breakfast.
I did not really enjoy the two breakfasts. The food was really nothing to write home about and the time with the princesses was really rushed. I know you cant beat the atmosphere of eating in a castle, but if you cant get it the 1900 dinner was better food and more time with the characters.

I am going to be canceling a PS for 8:30 am on Tuesday, NOvember 18th for 4. Please let me know if you are interested in grabbing it. I will wait to see if anyone wants it--otherwise I will cancel it on Tuesday evening.

OMG... am I reading this right? It's 90 days now???? I've been waiting for my 60 days to come next month... now it's 90 days???? ACK.... that means I've already lost a few days of trying to get CRT ressies and we just GOTTA.... we just gotta. My little one adores Cinderella and we've never been in the castle or done CRT.
Guess I have to start calling tomorrow but I've already lost my chances of getting CRT ressies for the first few days of our trip in Nov. I'm not happy about this.

 

[lheyde]

I have just found this board and see that many people post seats that they are giving up for the Royal Castle. If anyone is canceling a seating for either the princess breakfast at Epcot or WDW during October 4th-11th I would be very greatful if you would let me take it. Please email me if you can help.

Thanks

Bibbidy - Don't fret so much. Lots of people don't realize yet that the time has chnged to 90 days. I called after finding out the same way you did at 10:30 a.m. MDT and got my first choice of dates 80 some days out. Just call tomorrow morning and you just might have the same luck. These boards are such a lifesaver and fortunately for us not everyone knows about them. Good luck and have a wonderful time.

Hi All
Comig form the UK in 5 weeks. Phoned 60 days at 7am your time and was told that they had changed it to 90 days, gutted or what as I have 9 and 6 year old princess's who are equally gutted. However reached a compromise and managed to get a dinner at 1900 park fare, will this be ok do you think, not done it before.
PS. does anyone know where there is a cheesecake factory, I understand it is an American chain, my brother went in Las Vegas and said it was fabulous.
Thanks Nicky

I am SO upset! Did not realize that PS went to 90 days and my 60 day mark started today! I called to get my PS for any day between 10-26 & 11-8 and everything is booked- UGHH!!! I am really disappointed.
Any suggestions?

I don't know if there's a cheesecake factory, but Disney Quest in downtown disney is know for their Cheesecake. They have many varieties (from what I remember) and we can't wait to go back for the cheese cake! Maybe we'll play some games too!!!

 

[tink2]

Asking for a little pixie dust- our 90 day mark is tomorrow morning. We are traveling with my whole family- 15 people! I hope to at least get 8 in- the kids and parents, everyone else will just live without it if we don't get everyone in! Two years ago we got everyone- party of 11- in.
ANYWAY- asking for a little disney magic in the morning!

 

[dizney dreamin']

There is a Cheesecake Factory inside Disney Quest but they only serve deserts- it's not the full restaurant. I looked at the menu and it has 2 in Orlando- maybe check out the website for exact locations. www.thecheesecakefactory.com
Hope this helps!!
