Does infant count as # in reservation?

[meghead]

I just made my ADR's and when it asked for how many guests I put 3 - me, DH and DD 5 but I didn't include DD who will be 10 months at the time. She would be in a highchair...do I need to change the reservations to be for 4 people?
Thanks!

I believe so. When we just went in December with our 18 month old, the CM on the phone told me that I had to include her with the number of people dining.

You might want to call and ask.

Yes an infant count. It will be my third time with an infant and I had to include them in the ADR.

Yes, they go by head count, not by the number actually dining. You need reservations for 4.

You should change those reservations. You're a party of 4, the infant counts. When you arrive, you will be checked in as a party of 4, not a party of 3. Probably won't make a huge difference, but there is the outside possibility that you may not be seated with the extra person.

Thank you! I totally screwed up by only putting 3 and not counting the baby. I had to have them change all the reservations and I wasn't able to get the same times and in one case OHANA couldn't get another ARD. SO SAD!!! And I was up at 5am to do it, ugh!

Yep, even when my dd was 2 months old breastfeeding and in an infant carrier...she counted. Always ticked me off because she was our 6th family member. She took up no space, made no mess, and so on but she counted.

Has anyone actually been turned away before when doing this? I know in theory you can but I am also sure its the same table. Not many 3 top tables by design.
