Frustrated with disney

[2012DisneyWorldBride]

UGH... This whole thing with restaurants being blacked out for CP really frustrates me. Our 180 day opens up this Sunday for our Disney wedding/honeymoon trip in December. We really wanted to go to Coral Reef for dinner one night as it has been a little dream of mine to eat dinner in front of the fishes and we also wanted LeCellier (spelling?) for lunch one day. It just makes me soooo frustrated... We are spending a lot of money with DisNey for a wedding/honeymoon, not to mention the deluxe dinning plan and I might not get to eat at some of our most wanted places.

You should have no problem getting ADR's, they just haven't released them yet.

Just leave some space for them and keep checking! I think itll be ok...if you stay on top of it and when they open, book them

You are on an even playing board with everyone else. As others have suggested, leave space and book when they open their inventory.

We have never had problems getting adr's at 10 days around Christmas. (except for the castle)

I had problems today for December 4-13, 2012 with no reservations available for Le Cellier Steakhouse, Rose & Crown Pub & Dining, The Garden Grill Restaurant, and Coral Reef Restaurant for Lunch or Dinner availability.

But I will keep trying each day both online and by calling.

I hear ya. My trip for Nov/Dec is almost set, just missing a couple of ADR's which I can't book yet, just like everybody else.

My frustration lies with the fact that you can call 10 different CM's and get 10 different answers about what's going on. Doesn't Disney management let their customer reps know what's going on? I had one tell me yesterday that there was no availability at these restaurants because all of the times were booked up. I asked about the CP packages and she said 'No, they don't hold tables for that." HUH? Another one said check back every day. Another one said CP packages should be booking on June 26th. I have absolutely no idea what to believe anymore. I guess I'll just check each day until something happens where these reservations open up.

Or consult my magic 8-ball, that might give me more accurate info.

It seems to always be this way. I don't understand why Disney, like every other corporation doesn't train their frontline the same way accross the board. It is very frustrating and I feel for OP as this is her dream wedding and of course she wants it to be perfect. She is probably paying big $$$ for the time of year alone. Best of luck to you, I hope you get everything that you want. Christmas time of year is just magical. I have been to WDW many times and that Christmas trip was a trip of a lifetime!

My window opened yesterday and I go all ADRs I wanted online but for Epcot I could only book lunch in Biergarten @ 12.30 12/10. I called up and was told my other Epcot reservations I wanted to make would be 'ready' June 26th so call back then
