Dinning Reservations with DVC Stay ?

[Disneyworldlocal]

Hello Fellow Disney Crazy People,

Today opens our 60 day window of when we check in for Old Key West. We have a DVC reservation (we are renting points). I am attempting to make dining reservations and it will only allow me to book 60 days from today not the additional 10 days from when I check in. I ran into this same problem recently when doing a DVC reservation at Animal Kingdom lodge. Do I Need to call DVC member services to make the reservations for dining ? Do I call regular Disney dining reservation line ? When I use my Disney Experience it won't allow me to go past 60 days from today. Our reservations for onsite stay is listing on My Disney Experience.

Thanks for any advice you can provide.

Is your reservation for OKW linked and showing in you MDE? I forgot to link my stay once and this happened. Also try clearing your cache and see if it helps.

Thanks... It does appear that at 7am it loaded the first reservation (we actually had to string 3 reservations for OKW to get the 6 days total that we wanted). For some reason we have all three reservations on MDE but can only book restaurants for the first reservation. Totally maddening as I would really like to book all the days we are staying but for some reason it isn't loading our other reservations so that we can book dining. UGH. Waiting on the phone (I got on the phone right at 7am and 90 minute wait right off the bat.. LOL) Oh well I got plenty of work to do to keep my busy

You should not need to call DVC Member Services or the dining line. In theory if your reservation is linked in MDE you should be able to do it yourself online.

You will only be able to book for the first reservation. DVC member services used to book ADRs for the second half of split stays, but my understanding is they are no longer doing that.

Dining reservations open at 7 am for the 60 day window.
Since you have 3 separate reservations, you will have 3 separate 60 day windows to book your dining. You won't be able to book all your days today. You used to be able to book an entire split stay with the first window but that is no longer how it works.

Thanks... That really stinks. You would think that would be something available. Go figure.

OP is renting points. Don’t believe MS will speak to her re the reservation, only the owner.

They are trying to close a loophole where people would book a fake "split stay" for a few nights before their actual arrival date, use that to get a jump on everyone else booking reservations for the week they are there, and then cancel the fake stay. It's annoying, but I get it.
