**December 2012 Roll Call** Holidays, FLE Opening & MVMCP!! A very, merry thread!

[srauchbauer]

Wow, I admire your willpower .... I have none

Btw, haven't forgot your recipes

Not so much will power as a great excuse to book another trip. Not worrying about the recipes have a while before I start planning my menu's.

I have decided to book the Christmas dinner at Liberty Tree Taviern and forgo the BOG. I just don't want french fare on Christmas. I'd rather go for traditional American. Not

I hope we wont regret this!

I would much rather have a traditional american christmas also (I love christmas dinner)

[Q UOTE=Maddie's Nana;45877318]OK - sitting here flexing fingers - getting ready to dial. Still no luck online.[/QUOTE]

good job doing finger exercises don't want anybody to get a finger injury in the middle of dialing.

Wishing you all goodluck this morning! I'm not entering the fray, but I did wake up thinking about it

Same here woke up got my cup of coffee and came downstairs to read all the posts. I didn't expect 4 pages you have all been very busy.

Hope you all get the date and time you want and make sure you post your reviews after dining so I know what to expect in March.

Happy Planning.

Next thing you know we'll hear about law suits for finger injuries!

So happy that I got reservations for Be Our Guest on December 20th! If you're still trying to get in try 407-939-7675, only took my 6 minutes total (including hold and busy signals) to reach an agent and get our reservation, I had been trying 407-939-3463 for over an hour before the other number, plus my husband was calling to. Good luck!

I'm officially giving up on getting an ADR. I've been getting nothing but a busy signal. I might try sometime this afternoon, but I'm not holding out hope that anything will be available.

 

[LilMommyBug]

Well, DH decided he wants to go :/ All i'm hearing is beep beep beep beep.

I'm trying this one now but no luck yet.. still busy signals. What line is this? Will I get automated options?

Thanks

 

[mzozzietj]

[LilMommyBug]

I'm reading on a BoG thread that there are people having success RIGHT NOW by calling the Disney Store (800 number I guess?) and then asking to be transferred to dining.

Thanks!!!!! Did that and got automated dining ressies in 3 mins! I now officially love you

Wasnt exactly what I wanted but I'll live lol

Dec 8th @ 4.25pm - we're having an early breakfast so an early dinner won't be so bad. Wanted Dec 11th but they only had 4.10pm left and we're having lunch at LTT that day so it was a bit too early.

Phew, that took two hours!!

I saw that, so I tried it. It worked for me. I got transferred to an agent without waiting through the already existing hold queue. I didn't get the night that I originally wanted, but I got my second choice.

Congrats to everyone who got a BoG res.

Keep hangin' in there those that are still trying.

Those that gave up, keep your ear to the ground. You never know when they might add res's on the site or people have to cancel and post on the Cancelled ADR thread.

Reading the last 3 pages made me nostalgic from when I tried to book my Candlelight Processional dining combo 2 yrs ago. That was page after page after page of venting....

But getting back to BoG... After conferring with everyone in our trip, it looks like we will TRY to get to BoG for a counter service lunch. I underestimated the appeal of the menu to others.

But luckily, it wasn't so appealing that I had to gear up my phone shoulder muscles and stretching my fingers.

 

[mzozzietj]

I got through with DVC but there was no availability at all on 12/2, 12/5, or 12/7 when I did get through. I got a reservation for 12/3 which wasn't a day we're planning to go to MK but I guess we'll park hop again, LOL!

 

[LilMommyBug]

It's just cruel to hear it ring and then it's all circuits are busy now! UGH

 

[okw2012]

After having lost 2h trying to call wdw dine, called DVC and got my dec 28 BOG ADR for 5 at exactly the time I wanted (7pm).

 

[tofubeast]

As we get closer to 250 pages of this thread...

I will post this a few times as we get ever so closer to 250 pages. That's when the thread gets locked because it is FULL.

When it happens, I will create a new PART TWO thread for us and copy everything over so it still looks the same. If I happen to not be around when it happens (today, tomorrow, whenever!), please be patient. I will get a part two thread up as soon as I notice this one gets locked. Thanks!

 

[LilMommyBug]

Alright, I'm officially giving up.

Another poster on the 'I got my BOG ADR' thread (Restaurants) is saying that any bookings NOT secured with a cc number will be cancelled so, if you used the automated service (like I did) call back and speak to an agent to attach your cc number.

Not sure how long they will hold the booking for - this just gets better
