I was just wondering in anyone Did Not get Cindys the first week of December. I keep hearing how hard it is to get, and I was wondering if some little girl will have a broken heart the first week of December in Disney?
 
I have four girls who are broken-hearted, but I promised them that there will still be wonderful things to do. I figure we'll be standing in line to see the princesses now, and we have some other great things planned.

only 43 days to go!!!
 
We will be there Dec. 1-6. We got shut out every time we tried. My daughter has been once, but the this is the other family's first trip.

How old are your girls? I have a 9 year old daughter who loves Cinderalla!! What resort are you staying at?
 
i got lucky and got the CRT ressies on my 2nd day of trying. my advice for those who didn't get so lucky is this: KEEP CALLING BACK!!! Check every few days for cancellations. This has been effective for me. The resort we wanted was booked but I called back until I finally got in through a cancellation. I've had luck picking up PS's this way too, although not, admittedly, for CRT. This will be our first time to eat at CRT. If all else fails, just show up. I have heard that they seat a few people every hour that don't have ressies. If it means a lot to your kids, i would do it. GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!



I DON'T KNOW WHERE MY COUNTDOWN WENT BUT IT IS 50 DAYS UNTIL OUR FIRST TRIP TO WDW AT CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
I tried to get a PS for 2 for Saturday, Dec 6 but it was booked. My little girl is 7, and although she would really LOVE to meet Cinderella, we're still going to have a great time!!! I was able to get the Storybook breakfast, but she really would have liked the Castle. We may try as a walk up.
 
Don't forget that CRT is not the only way to meet Cinderella. We couldn't get in last time, so we stopped by guest services and found out when she was appearing in Toontown. We got our traditional Cindy pic there.
 
Add our family to the 1st week in Dec (Dec 1-6) families who have brokenhearted daughters. We have (2) 5-year olds, (1) 10 year old, and a 15-year old turning 16 that week. We've been calling every day for cancellations, but I fear with that being DIScon week there won't be any. Oh well, there's always next time. We were really looking forward to seeing the 5-year olds eyes light up when they saw Cindy in HER castle.
 
When is your little girl turning sweet 16?? It should be a magical day!!
 
I got shut out 7 days in a row for the second week of December. Amazing to me was that it was sold out in the 17 seconds it took from when I heard "our office is closed" and getting a CM the last day. Oddly enough I saw on another website that a group was able to book a table for 17 and 4 other reservations for the another family that same morning. I wonder why it was gone so quickly. :rolleyes:

I never promise the breakfast to my girls, but my 3 year old is with me all of the time. I felt awful when she clasped her hands and said "oh please-Cinderellas" when she heard me mention it on the phone.
 
Wenpop,
Here is another group that got shut out too. We have invited a friends family to go to WDW Nov 30-Dec 6. They are scrimping and saving to make this trip, which will probably be their only one. We called each day trying for a PS, but alas no luck. I have been calling to check on cancellations and hopefully some pixie dust will blow our way and something will open up. I will not be taking my girls(we were fortunate to dine with Cinderell two years ago) but these little girls would love to experience this.

Best of luck and Pixie Dust to all Princess lovers out there!! We will a have wonderful time, just watch!!;)
 
I tried every day for a party of 9. I get in with the phone but the CM's answering the phones have no clue what they're doing . The first one, took forever to just look it up and then spent 5 minutes talking and then she was amazed that it was booked up in 2 minutes. The next one had it but spent so much time getting my kids ages she lost it:mad: :rolleyes: Can't they just book it and then ask all the details? Maybe I should just tell them 9 adults;) please help with suggestions I only have a few days left to try
 
6 kids? Wow are they all yours?? Email me I have a question for you. gawendy@aol.com
I think CRT should have a character lunch.. that would help with everyone who can not get breakfast.
 
wenpop...
Nella turns 16 on December 5th. She's been a princess nut since she was a little girl. We may try to do lunch or dinner at CRT since I've promised her we would get to see the inside of the castle. I really wish they would do the characters throughout the day. I understand they want it to be an upscale dinner spot for MK, but the magic of dining with the princesses in the castle seems like a greater act of good will. But then, I'm a dad and not an upscale dining expert. Perhaps the breakfast would lose its charm if there were more meals. Anyway, I'm going to keep calling for cancellations...I believe in MAGIC after all!
 
I was on the phone 2-3 minutes before 7am, 60 days prior for 11/30, 12/1,12/2,12/3, with no luck, and we are only a party of 2.
 
to add to the disappointed list...we're going Nov29th-Dec 6th
called everyday to get a ps with no luck. Im keeping my fingers crossed for a cancellation.
 
okwoodsmith ... you might want to try for a lunch or dinner PS now. We are going the first week of dec also and these ressies seemed to be getting booked also. From my understanding Cinderella can be seen in Toontown sometimes and can even be found wondering thru her castle. Hopefully you will luck out. Have a wonderful xmas vacation.
