? for the Disney Veterans: when to book ADR's

[KEVD]

I'm sure this question comes up all the time. Planning family trip number three to WDW June 24 - July 1. We're working on our trip plan now but we have not yet finalized what we are doing on which days. How far in advance should we plan to book our ADR's to be sure we'll get the times we want? Here's where we're looking at:

Crystal Palace (lunch- 11:45a)
50's Prime Time (lunch- 11:45a)
Whispering Canyon (dinner- 5p)
Le Cellier (dinner- 5p)
Boma (dinner- 5p)

Book Le Cellier ASAP. The others aren't as hugely popular but you might as well book them while you are at it.

Thanks. On a related note... any other WDW restaurants that you'd recommend that I did not list? Keep in mind we have a very finicky eater in the family so we need to stick to American style cuisine as that is what he's used to eating.

Book your ADR's now.

We arrive June 9, and I booked all my ADRs December 12 (except Hoop De Doo, which is still not available to book ). Le Cellier can be hard to get as TDC Nala said, although it might be a little less popular now that it is two credits at dinner on the DDP.

I'd book anything you are sure of now - you can always cancel them (at least one day in advance for any that require a credit card).

to be sure we'll get the times we want

The end of June is a pretty busy time so book as soon as you can. Also early lunch and dinner times are popular. The longer you wait the less likely it is you will get the times you want.
