Got my call in at 6:59/7am, had a hold time of 2 minutes . When the CM picked up in what seemed like 1 minute, I was doing the banana dance and the cabbage patch . The whole family was on point- DD19 was taking DD6 to school, DD16 was ready for her bus, and DH had taken the day off to....well, relax, but also to run defense if necessary. I did have to "check out" twice, because you can only do 12 ADRs at one time. Had to adjust some times, up to an hour, and flip my Mickey's BBQ and Ohana day. Also need to call tommorrow AM for our last day. DH got his coveted CM arrival night ADR at 8:15 pm (told him to take the available 8:45 to be safe, but he says we'll make it there . Since we don't land until 6pm, we may end up at the food court , but we'll be at Disney World, so even some chicken fingers will be magical, LOL! Are you ready for this lineup:

Yup, I know we're doing some serious eating, but I still have a few pounds to go before I pop the button on my current jeans, so what the hey! Just got Wii Active...guess I should plug it in....

Congrats, I called 2 days ago and LeCellier was booked all day on 9/12.

 

[The Three Cabs]

Wow great list of ADR's ! We are going to MNSSHP on the 15th too.

 

[TiggerD]

I got on at 7 this morning only had to wait 5 minutes when a CM came on. I got all the ressies I wanted and the times I wanted for our stay in September.

I even got LeCellier for dinner which we have never been able to do just lunch.

10th- Tonys 7:00
11th-Biergarten 6:30
12th-Coral Reef 6:25
13th Cyrstal Palace 9:25 breakfast
14th Tusker House 9:20 breakfast
15th Le Cellier 7:25
16th Teppan Edo 7:00
17th Captain Jacks 7:05 and then shopping
18th Rose & Crown 6:50

I was happy with the times and our choices as we have eaten at most of these before. Teppan Edo along with Captain Jacks are the new ones for us this trip. Our Ds and his family are arriving two days later and I was able to get 3 of our meals together so we can have character time and Coral Reef with our grandsons who are 6 and 2.

89 days and I am so excited

[DisneyBlonde]

Congrats everyone!

When I called yesterday I was unable to get Le Cellier for dinner on the day I wanted (our first weekend here)...but then I asked if I could do Le Cellier for dinner midweek, no problem! I swapped it out with Maya Grill for Wednesday.

 

[clc053103]

Thanks for posting this- my ADR day is Monday and you guys are giving me hope, for a while there I was convinced we were going to get nothing- and we have 21 credits of deluxe dining to plan!

I made my ADRs this morning also. I am the most disney obsessed in our group of 14, so I was the one that got to get up at 4:30 this morning to make the ADRs for us all. I was a bit worried, cause some are for groups of 14, while others are for groups of 2, but Disney magic didn't let me down!! Here are our plans (# of people per res):


Sept 10- late arrival
Sept 11- quick service for the day
Sept 12-Sci-Fi(10) Le Cellier(4) Teppan Edo(12)
Sept 13-Hollywood & Vine Fantasmic Package (wanted MaMa Melrose, but it was full, so I'm going to keep trying back for that one) (14)
Sept 14-Coral Reef (14) San Angel Inn (2)
Sept 15- Ohana Breakfast (14)
Sept 16- Akershus Breakfast(6) Le Cellier(4) Teppen Edo(2)
Sept 17- Le Cellier(4) Teppan Edo (2)
Sept 18- Sci-Fi(2) Tutto Italia (9)
Sept 19- Kona Cafe(14)

I was able to get within 10 minutes if not the exact time I had requested, except for Coral Reef, but I'm going to continue to call back and work on that one also.
BTW- I call at 4:59 (6:59EST) and went straight to a CM, no wait at all, thanks to the advice of so many on the DIS!!!

I was really worried about getting adr's for our upcoming trip in Sept. There are quite a few posts lately about people having problems. This morning at 7:00 I was connected with little wait. and reserved adr's for 9 days, 8 people with no problem. Everything we wanted was available at the time we asked for. Hoping this puts some people at ease.

 

[jjhardy]

Got everything booked. Le Cellier wasn't available for us on 9/11 completely booked. So we just flipped that with Rose & Crown later in the week. May change Mama Melrose on the 14th because they only had 4pm available and that means DD will have to be woken from her nap to get there

 

[chocolateMinnie]

Great to hear someone who is pleased withtheir ADRs, we have not been since they changed to 90 days but to be honest we have never had a problem getting where we wanted.

Have a wonderful trip in September.

 

[Mason's Mom]

Yall leave some ressies for me. I can't call til Sunday. I guess I have everything planned out. Worried about the breakfast. We are not big breakfast eaters but when we do eat we like to eat early. Wishing for the best. Pass some pixie dust my way

 

[Montog]

We had a similar experience on Tuesday. There were computer difficulties, and that was frustrating. I lost my first ADRs and they were better than the ones I ended up with, but I was still really really happy with what I got and the times I got (Ohanas, 1900 Park Fair, Coral Reef, Tuto Italia, Tusker House Nemo Package, and Marrekesh) Sept 7 - 13. The only thing I wanted but didn't get was a fantasmic package, I had it at 7, but when they lost my ADRs when the computer went down, I couldn't get it again when I got back through later. In the end, we're happier with the other Italian ADR and think we'll have just as much fun doing that. We'll save fantasmic for another time.

 

[katyjeka]

Called this morning @ 7:00, waited 5 minutes and got everything we wanted at the times we chose. I was so worried after reading some of the posts, but all went well. We were able to get 1900 Park, Ohana, Kona, WC, Crystal Palace, LeCellier, Akershus, Garden Grille, Biergarten, Hoop Dee Vue, Chef Mickeys, and safari breakfast. Considering we are a party of 8, I was quite surprised.
