getting ADRs 4 months out for early December?

[Rock'n Robin]

My cousin just EMailed me about helping her set up a trip in early December, wants to do MVMCP, etc. It is her and her fiancee and their 2 year old daughter. My advice to her was to pick a hotel pronto and work from there. Will she have a lot of difficulty getting ADRs at this point? I want to give her all the good advice I can.

I don't think she'll have a problem getting ADRs now for early December. I just got 4 ADRs (exactly what I wanted, exactly what time I wanted) for late October today.

She may have difficulty getting ADR's for dinner at alot of the table service restaurants at EPCOT with Candlelight Processional happening, as well as some of the character meals in or near the Magic Kingdom, especially on the days of MVMCP. So she may want to choose those pretty quickly.

I agree with Terk-1. She will have difficulty getting some of the more popular Epcot restuarants for dinner because of the CP package (especially Le Cellier). Also will be difficult to get any MK and possibly monorail restaurants on the nights of MVMCP. Everything else should be a piece of cake except for the normal hard to gets like CRT.

I made my ADR's for first week in December 2 weeks ago and got almost all at the exact time I wanted..a couple were about 10-15 mins difference. But I wasn't trying for a CRT breakfast..that's the only one I would be worried about.

We just booked our Mid-Dec ADR's today, got all we wanted within 10 minutes, I'd get them asap though.

I just called on Monday 7/24 and got Christmas dinner 12/25 at 6PM at Crystal Palace. I was shocked.

I just booked ADR's for our Dec 2-9th trip last week and got everything at the time I wanted with the exception of Whispering Cyn.. I was hoping for opening around 5 on Sunday night but got 7PM (we have a large group of people though) and then I couldn't get Le Cellier for Dinner on Thursday any earlier than 8Pm (too late for us) so we settled for lunch at 12:10 the same day. Other than that, everything was within 10 minutes of when I wanted.

I just made my ADR's for 11/30 - 12/4 - I got everythingI wanted at the times I wanted!
BUT, the CM said 2 of my ADR's were the last available around the times I wanted. If anyone's looking for Dec. dates, book soon!

Last week I wasn't able to get a reservation I wanted at Chef Mickey's, before MVMCP, on 12/7. I was able to Kona Cafe, but with a limited selection of times. Maybe it's harder with a table for two than a table for four; I don't know.

Today I was able to get exactly the breakfast reservation I wanted at Cape May Cafe.

I called the beginning of this week and was able to get CG for Christmas Day at a perfect time for viewing Wishes. I was very surprised ~ was actually going to book CG for another day but thought I'd just see what was available on Christmas Day.
