Cindy's Breakfast advice & encouragement

[disney's daughter]

Even though we probably won't be utilizing any Magical Gathering events, do you recommend I get a Magical Gathering "number" and ask a CM to try to get us reservations or still just try to get one on my own? Last year I did get a Magical Gathering number, but, just made the meal reservations myself..but, THIS year..my youngest grandchild wants to eat in the Castle with Cinderella.... Because this is SO important to her...I would have to try to make those (Cindy's) reservations before I make any other ones......which would include Richard Petty for the male adult children and the parasailing at the Contempo..... not to mention all the meal reservations! We arrive February 14th and depart February 20th...I should begin calling 90 days before February 14th, right? .....and really early....right? Whew!

"Hey POB, you just got up at 5:30 AM on a Sunday, what are you going to do now?"

"I'm goin' to Disney World, and Cindy's Breakfast!!!"

Started calling at 6:58:15 Eastern by the Atomic Clock, got in at 8:59:30, got STRAIGHT through to a CM and got 8:05 reservations!

It's our first time to WDW, and DD6 is all about the princesses, and DD4 saw the photo of the castle in the Birnbaum For Kids book and asked what was in there.

"A restaurant."
"A restaurant, like where you eat?"
"Yep, that kind of restaurant."
"Could we eat in the castle?"
"We'll see."

This is going to be so cool.

Edited to fix my total inability to convert to Eastern time at 6 AM.

I am sooo happy, just got throught and I am booked with my party of nine for 9 am on the 6th of November for CRT. It is true a party of nine must use two tables, but they will be near each other. I cant wait. Good luck to everyone trying to book, I followed the DIS board instructions and get throught first thing in the morning. I am soo happy to be going in before the park opens, unless it is an extra morning hours which it might be on a Sunday for the MK. yeah yeah yeah.

I glad you got through RichieGraciemom. I have gone to CRT before with a large group. (there were about 25 of us) They did have us a seperate tables, yet they were all right next to each other. It was realy not a problem. I ope you enjoy.

I just cancelled 9:09 today, two tables for crt on Nov 12th if someone wants to call and get them. good luck

 

[DiszyGram]

RichieGraciemom, how did you get the CRT for Nov. 12th already? As a trial run today, I tried for a group of 8 on Nov. 11th. It's not 90 days from that date yet so I have to try again this Saturday.

I got through right at seven, was on hold for 20 minutes, and heard an announcement while waiting that the CRT was booked already for 90 days from today.

 

[RichieGraciemom]

if you are on property you can book up to ten days from your check in date. They let me do this on Friday, and that was all that was open. they told me to call 90 days from the day I want to actually sit in eat and I had a better chance of getting the day I want. They open all the tables up 90 days from the calendar day and a few for hotel guests to try and book for the week, with only fifteen tables opend up. good luck

 

[RichieGraciemom]

I also get in at seven and had no wait to book for the 6th of NOvember. I started calling at 655 and kept redialing untill the opened.

6:58. I was excited, and up way too early for a Sunday, and screwed up the time conversion.

Res is for Nov 5.

I don't know if this was covered already, but I notice now when you call Dining, you have to punch a lot of buttons before you get someone. Is there anyway to bypass this? I need to start calling tomorrow for Cindi's. Thanks
