Dining plan ADR's - confused!?!?

[Dreamer1977]

Hi all

We are nearing the time to start making our adr's. I thought I was all prepared and that it was 180 + 10 days, so I could book the first 10 days all at once, but... was having a look on the WDTC site and it says reservations can be made from 12 o clock from 190 days.

Sorry if I am being stupid but can't work out whether I should be phoning from 190 days or 180 - am I just totally misunderstanding everything which could be the case

Thanks

Don't worry - I was also confused by this.

Basically you can only book ADRs 180 days before the day you arrive; however, you can book ADR's for up to the first ten days of your holiday.

So for example, if you are due to arrive on October 1st, you can then book 180 days before this date for ADRs until October 10th.

Any ADRs you want to make beyond the tenth day of your holiday, you then have to call back and book 180 days before that date specifically.

I hope that makes sense and if it helps, it is worth writing down all the ADRs you want to make and the rough times ahead of your 180 days so you are ready to go on your 180 day milestone. It will help your booking process a lot!

I had mine timed down to precision when it came to booking with all the dates set out in my diary!

You can start making reservations online at 11am UK time - an hour before the phone lines open and that can be a big help too.

Good luck and I really hope you get the ADRs you want.

You can book your ADR's at 180 days out for the first 10 days of your holiday. Then the next day you can book day 11, the flowing day you can book day 12 and so on.
I had a list of what I wanted and what times! All but 2 of my ADR's were exactly when I wanted them, and I booked on line at 11am.

Good luck, hope you get all that you want

A nice perk if you are staying in Club Level is that it looks like you can book more than 10 nights in advance at 180 days. I'm staying Poly Club Level this year, and the Poly Itinerary Planning office booked ADRs for all 11 nights of our stay at the 180 day mark. Got all the times we wanted too.

I suspect they put the reservations in the system well in advance of the 180 day mark, so perhaps Club Level guests get preferential treatment, although not seen that confirmed anywhere.
