***Epcot Food And Wine Festival Info 2008***

[oybolshoi]

just as an aside ... why on earth do they have a separate number for the festival when all it does is throw you into the regular disney dining queue?

 

[BriarRosie]

I got through right away. I booked:

10/16 Kitchen Conversation
10/18 PFTS
10/19 French Regional Lunch

I didn't book the City Tastes because I'm still on the fence with that one.

I wanted to add that I already had nightmares and lots of tossing and turning, looking at my clock. My nightmares consisted of me making one reservation, forgetting the French Regional Lunch only to call back and find it sold out. And being late for work in the process. LOL!

Was the first call for the CM this morning and she couldn't find City Tastes for almost 3 minutes (and this was the first event I was booking!!) Thankfully she found PFTS a lot quicker and now, 10 minutes later, I am done!!

 

[kabuki]

What are you all booking?

Does PFTS usually sell out fast? Should I be freaking out that I am on hold?

You know we should be good for PFTS but we got up since everyone seemed to want it insted of anything else.

got home really late last night fom our trip ... stupid Fay mucked up travel on Friday and yesterday but at least we got to where we needed to be.

Got through right at six but thanks to the stupid automated questions am now sitting on hold. Tried calling on the cell and all circuits are busy.

Annoyed I am ... yes, I often channel Yoda when I'm tired and haven't had coffee.

Brenda.. so sorry about the plans and Fay!
I told someone to make coffee and no one did!

Im in

 

[TxDsnyGrl74]

I'm still holding.... got right through but have been on hold for 11 minutes now.

 

[oybolshoi]

hey, are we all listening to the same annoying cartoon music right now?

I can't handle chronic cheerfulness this early in the morning ... it really messes with my digestion.

Hey, I LIKE the cartoon music! I just feel for Chelsi and the rest of the West Coasters right now at 4am. I'm just glad I am awake now, so I can get ready for work soon.

Here you go, Brenda...

 

[RachelTori]

I am anxiously awaiting the results of all your phone calls! I hope everyone is able to book every event they want.

I had the sweetest CM!

Got 9/28 Sweet Sunday (Baked, Brooklyn, NY)

and 10/23 Kitchen Conversations (Chef Jeff Henderson)

hold time was about 5 minutes.

 

[WDWguru]

I'm in!

 

[oybolshoi]

Here you go, Brenda...

Thanks Elin!

I'm baffled ... I got through right when the lines opened but have been on hold now for 15 minutes.

 

[PNO4TE]

Sounds like many of you could use it...

 

[BriarRosie]

Thanks Elin!

Dang. I should have booked the Kitchen Conversations for 3 people. I would have guaranteed you got into that one.

Good for you! Sorry about the missed sleep, though.

 

[TinkerBelle_325]

Called from Wilderness Lodge this morning! LOL

Got Party for the Senses Oct 25th

 

[ghidorah97]

Very frustrated at my own mistake -- got right through @ 7, but then hung up when I got dumped into the regular DD queue, thinking I had dialed the wrong number. Didn't they, in the past, have a special F&WF prompt???

On hold now listening to god-awful music

 

[ImprovGal]

Called & got right through initially and... call ended before I could reach a person.

Called back. All circuits busy.

Called back. 7:03am. Still sitting on hold. Wah.

I'm just hoping I'm not shut out of the 9/26 Cook, Book, and Bottle since I'm booking for my mom and a friend, too.

 

[sheryl0521]

Just booked my November 1 Party for the Senses reservations!! Took about 10 minutes as the computer did't wake up until about 7:05.

Good luck everyone!

 

[BriarRosie]

Now that is funny! You probably could have gotten the front desk concierge to make the reservation for you.

Laura - I debated that Sweet Sunday... but we have a 9:20 ADR at CA Grill the night before and I just don't see us being ready to eat that early on Sunday. You will have to let me know what I missed!
