Dining Reservation Question

[minnie1012]

Hi I am arriving on 9/26 but since we are arriving late in the day we aren't eating our first table service till 9/27. I used the dining calculator but my question is, can I make the reseravtion on 6/28 based on my arrival date or do I have to do it on 6/29 based on my first table service request? Sorry for being confused on this! I thought I understood it!

So far we want to CRT-breakfast; dinner at Chef Mickey's, Ohana, 1900 Park, Teppan Edo, Chefs De France, and Crystal Palace. Which do you think will be the hardest to get? Thus which should I ask for first when I call? I have 2 small kids so we will be trying to eat early 5 or 5:30. Its still free dining which unforunately my hotel wasn't eligible for but I hear that makes some places hard to get researvations.

Thanks!

Your arrival date. We're arriving 9/5 but first ADR is for 9/6 - I called this morning and got everything I wanted.

Yup, it's your arrival date

hey Minnie... I'm in central NJ too! (sayreville)

You would make your phone call 90 days from your arrival date... doesn't matter if you are using a TS that day. On that day, you can make ADR's for the first 10 days of your trip.

Out of your list.... hmmm.... seems like Ohana's has been pretty sought after. maybe then CRT-breakfast, and then CM's? that's my best guess.

Take care,

Hey marylouwho, I grew up in Sayreville! My parents still live there. I'm down in Howell now.

I've been in Sayreville all of my life.... graduated in 81, a year after bon jovi.

You'll be in WDW exactly 3 months after us!!! Woohoooo!!

Wow how cool a year after Bon Jovi! I went to 12 years of Catholic school. So I went to St Mary's in South Amboy.

Have fun on your trip. A friend of mine is going around the same time as you.
