Like everyone else who has a DD (mine is aged 5) I put myself under the immense pressure of planning to secure a PS for CRT.

I read all the tips and waited for the first opening of my 90 day window.

As I live in the UK I thought that my chances were very slim but "A Daddy has to do what a Daddy has to do".

Allowing for time I waited with baited breath at 11.55am (7.00am US Time, not as bad as others granted). I began to hit the redial button from 11.58.

When I did get through bang on 12.00 (7.00am) I was greeted with the request to enter my phone number. This caught me off gaurd and when I entered the details I informed that it was not recognised.......may be because it is an international number!!!!!!!!. The time now was 12.04 (7.04am) then I just kept hitting to hash/pound key until I was then asked "If this was your first trip to WDW press 1 AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

I hit option 2 in the hope that I would not be asked anymore stupid time delaying questions. Time now...............12.06 (7.06am).

Then I was put on hold for another 5 min!!!!!!!! The hold music gets interrupted for the message that says "If you should hear this message it is likely that all PS for CRT have now gone" Time now was 12.11 (7.11am)

Just as I thought that my first chance had gone a CM came on line as was greeted by a grown man screaming aaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh CRT 5 places 1 child............AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH March 27 2005 ANYTIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PLLLLLLLLLEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSEEE!!!!!!!!!!

And guess what................................I got the PS!!!!!!!

To say I am happy is an under statement so please don’t give up as there is no rhyme or reason to how the "System" works.

Hope that this helps!!!
 
That's great. I'm so happy it worked out for you!
 
LOL ~ that is hilarous, I feel your pain :) and ecstasy as it turned out.

Congratulations!
 
Congrats! :) I am really happy for you. I hope your little princess: loves it as much as mine did at that age.
 

that's great!!! WOO HOO!!

she will love eating with the princesses...if our kids only knew what all we did for them...
 
Good news!! Glad that it worked out for you.

:cool1:
 
What a great story! Glad you made it in and didn't give up. Wish me some pixie dust princess: as I'll be trying next week.

Nancy :earsgirl:
 
LOL! YAY for you!!! :Pinkbounc

I'm so glad you got your PS's!! Gives me hope that I just might be able to get one myself in just a few short weeks. :D
 
Good for you! We LOVE eating there!

For all the others trying to get ressies, when the option comes up, always go for the one where it says your trip is within the week or you are calling from Orlando. Even if your trip is 90 days away. If you choose the other option then you have to enter your phone number and waste precious time! A CM told me both options will take you to the same place so always choose the shortest path.
 
Congratulations!!! It really is worth it. :) Have a magical time!
 
I have this visual of a grown man on his knees with the phone at his ear screaming "PLLLLLLLLLEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSEEE!!!! !!!!!!"

Makes me giggle....

It was worth every bit or anticpation and Agony!!! ENJOY every moment!
 
Good for you! You will now enjoy this at least as much if not more than your daughter. :cheer2: :cheer2:

We did that dance two years ago and my memory of it is the complete open mouth miscomprehention my husband gave me when I tried to explain what I wanted him to do with his cell phone at 6:58 in the morning.

"I'm supposed to do what?" "This will cost allot of minutes." "We can't do this when we're there?" "What am I supposed to be doing?" "There is only one breakfast at WDW? We'll order room service." On and on.

Good grief man. Just dial.

Of course he was the one that got through and his eyes widened in horror and he shoved the phone at me going "Hum eh Hum eh" :earseek:
 
That is hilarious - congratulations!!!

We just booked our CRT PS for our upcoming trip as well. The first day we were unsuccessful. The second day both I and DW called and I got through first. I read my scripted "4 for CRT breakfast early as possible please" and the response I got back was "which day, sir?" ....er....uh....duh....um... I was completely dumbfounded. I was like a deer caught in headlights. My mind went blank and I couldn't have told the CM the date if my life depending on it. Finally, she said "March 24th?" and I shouted "YES, YES, THAT'S IT!!!!!" Well, fortunately the extra seconds didn't cost us and we were able to get 8:10am...phew!
