CRT ADR for party of 10

[LuzzBightyear]

I am a couple weeks out from my 180 day, and over the past few days, I have been checking availability at various restaurants I want to hit up.
One thing I noticed is that Cinderella's Royal Table has lots of October availability for parties of six or less, but absolutely nothing for anything more than that.

Do they have tables for parties greater than 6? (We have 10)
If so, are these big tables the first to go?
Do I need to call to get these tables?

Can you split the 10 into 2 reservations? Like a 6 and a 4 or something like that? With larger parties they warn you that you might have to be seated separately anyway (even if you get a reservation for 10). You could just ask when you arrive if they can seat the 2 reservations together which they may be able to do by pushing tables together.

They do have large enough tables~ but they are very few. We've always had a party of 11 and always had one reservation~ but this was before the online system. We've been seated at a big table that could sit 12 twice, and then smaller tables pushed together. I'm going to be making reservations for our Dec trip in June, so I'm interested to hear how you do. Please let us know. I'm sure making separate reservations would work fine if you show up early and ask to be seated together, it just makes me nervous that way.

Well I called today, and at like at 186 days out, I could only get 2 ADRs for 5 each. Both ADRs are for 12 noon. The CM I spoke to didn't seem to know why I couldn't get a bigger table to fit us all.
Hope you have better luck!

I'm glad you got something anyway! I suggest trying again at exactly 180 days out. I've always had better luck with all my reservations that way! I think they hold a large percentage of tables and release them at the 180 day mark... may not be true, but if they didn't~ nobody that stayed off property would ever be able to get ressies. I tried the past two trips to use the 180 + 10 system, and only got one or two things I wanted. But when the 180 day mark hit, I got whatever I wanted. May not work, but worth a try!

I was not able to book online but was able to call and get reservation for 17!!! Now they want me to add 2 more...that may take some magic

anyway...I have not had an issue getting a large reservation when I have called!
