Do I have a chance for Cindy's?

[JodiR]

I was unable to get Cindy's for our August trip (dd's birthday trip). My dd came home from daycare talking about how she is going to have her birthday party at Cinderella's castle. I feel so bad that it won't happen. Do I have any kind of a chance? Or should I try to do lunch or dinner there even if there are no characters? How hard is lunch or dinner to get a PS?

Thanks
Jodi

Don't give up yet, keep calling. We will be there in Aug also and I've been checking daily for any cancellations. But nothing yet.

We are having dinner at the Castle one evening.

What about the GF? They have a char. dinner at 1900 Park Fare with Cinderella Prince Charming, Fairy Godmother and the mice.
We have a PS for this also, DD really likes Cinderella I'm sure she will enjoy this very much.

Good luck and keep trying, I think I might even check at the castle for a breakfast seating, ya never know?

By chance, we stopped at Cinderella's Royal Table and got in for lunch without a PS. I don't know how it happened for us, but never give up! Keep hope alive!!!

I'm also trying to snag a cancellation for August. I wish us all luck.

When in August are you looking for a reservation?

We even got to Fantasyland one day and rode a couple of rides....then everyone was hungry for breakfast. For the fun of it, I went up to the podium and asked if we could have breakfast for the five of us. No problem! I'm sure not everyone that has a reservation makes it there. Worth a try! Also, we had dinner there one night and Cinderella, Jasmine....and one other that I can't remember, were downstairs in the castle.

I called a few minutes ago and was able to get lunch on the day I wanted...it was the only day available. I got the last table. No dinner times were open. I had been trying for weeks to get anything and then this happens to open up. It's not breakfast, but we are in the castle! I will still try to get breakfast if I can.

We planned a trip about 2 weeks in advance and we surprised our daughter with a weekend trip over MLK weekend. I called one Sunday morning while getting ready for church and they had a table for us. Even the CM was floored about it. He told me I must have called just when it was cancelled.

So sometimes have can have your wishes come true. I also had a luch PS for CRT but I cancelled it.

I let my last trip with my two daughters slip up on me. I had heard how hard it was to get a reservation and knew what I was up against to begin with. I let the 60 days out rule get past me and felt horrible. I figured it was a lost cause. I then saw a post on another site advise to call in the evening around 8:30pm and just before 9pm. The advisor said that most cancellations are thrown back into the system at this time and there was a good chance to get a seating. I waited and called at 8:45pm. Got through right away and had the PS within a minute on the first try. Call at night as well as in the morning. You never know.

Dont give up, I called last saturday and got a ps for Sept 4. for the breakfast at Cindys.

It was the first time I called, since I forgot and missed the 60 day thing.

Keep trying and good luck!
