Disney World Reservation System -POST 1 FOR LINKS

Late to this but have been up since 6:50 and was hoping to go back to bed for a half hour after booking reservations (ha!). Where are people trying to sign in? I'm in MDE in browser and am also trying to sign in from the "how to reserve" page and like the rest of you am staring at a pink castle. Is there some official place to do this?

At this point, literally nothing is working so there is no official or working unofficial place. Good luck!
 

Wouldn’t be Disney if the crap didn’t hit the fan for a new rollout, I had a glimmer of hope after the Disney+ rollout. Thank you Disney, just another poopy Monday in the year of 2020.

CANARY UPDATE #20- 7:40EST System still down/Not Live Yet. - Pages still crashing 504/Castle we are aware.


YES I KNOW PAGES ARE CURRENTLY SLOW/CRASHINNG WE HAVE NO CONFIRMED METHOD YET

No one has been able to make a confirmed reservation at this time. System is very possibly not live yet and obviously under heavy traffic

NOTE: WE DO NOT KNOW THE EXACT PAGE/PROCESS YET. I WILL UPDATE HERE AS SOON AS WE DO. PLEASE DONT ASK. MONITORING SEVERAL PAGES>>>>
 
Before everyone gets upset, Disney didn't exactly say when it would be live today
They did though, to travel agents. I am a travel agent and we spent hours training on Friday and were told EXACTLY what to communicate to our clients. We were told to email our clients and tell them that they need to be ready to go at 7:00 AM eastern time today, and that they had to do this due to a new legal waiver that would pop up that they had to attest to. So I have multiple clients on right now, texting me, pissed.
 
About 5 years ago they gutted their IT department and hired replacement workers from India at much lower salaries. Not saying they had stellar IT to begin with, but I can't imagine that it has helped things.

That would likely improve their IT. There's far more competition for IT jobs in India from people with better educations than in the States. American exceptionalism in that particular field is a myth largely propagated by prejudice. Companies don't just outsource because it's cheaper - they outsource because it's cheaper AND they get better workers.

I actually did have more than one CM confirm 7am was the time, but of course CMs don't know anything so I took it with a grain of salt.
