Do you have to pay in advance for any ADRs?

[angela3676]

I'm wondering, do you have to pay for any ADR's in advance? I think I read somewhere that they debit your card when you make reservations for Cinderella's Royal Table. Does anyone know if that's true? And if it is, is there any other TS that do that?

Thanks

The ADR's don't require a payment. They are basicly your spot in line. It allows you to go to a resturaunt on a date and time you set and get put to the front of the line as fas a waiting for a table(for your size party). Usually the wait time in less than 15 minutes. You are correct as for as CRT. When you make the ADR for her place they require a credit card on file. You have up until 24 hours before your meal time to cancel. If not then they bill you for the entire meal for each person in the party. Not sure if there are any other ADRS like CRT.

Thanks "threegoofys" for the answer. I'm on the right track now.

Another that does that is the Phantasmic Dinner show package at the studios

Wow. And I didn't think they did that. I plan to do the dinner package because I've never seen the Fantasmic show. The line was always to long.

Thanks for the info.

I don't mind giving my credit card if it's just for a hold. I'd just like to know who require advanced payments. I like to map out my budget.

Actually they just need a cc to guarantee the reservation. If you don't cancel 48 hours before you are charged $10 pp.
