How do I make sure dining reservations are linked to my resort reservation?

[twodogs]

I am booking ADRs tomorrow at 5AM here and want to book 180 days + 10. How do I know it is linked to my resort reservation? I see several posts where people couldn't get the system to link them, thus they could only book day 1?? Please advise. Also, just to clarify, I can start booking online at 6AM Florida time? Thanks.

I think you have to call to do the 180+10. I haven't done it, but was looking in the system and it said if I was trying to book online I would have to call. Then if you're on the phone just give them your resort number and it shouldn't be a problem. Just FYI though, make sure to write down the numbers they give you to confirm. When I made my ADRs on the phone they didn't automatically update to my online account so I had to enter them one by one.

I'm not sure about the 180 +10 thing. When I booked my reservations, I just logged onto the Disney site and it brings up my reservations. Every ADR I added, was list in my reservations.

If I were you, I'd just be prepared to try online and hope for the best, but if it doesn't work go ahead and call at 7. I didn't have any problems getting popular reservations by phone.

Answering my own question since I figured it by chance. Once I started booking at 0600am eastern, as soon as I chose a date greater than 180 days out, it popped up and said I could only do this with a resort reservation. It then asked me to enter my resort reservation conf number, which then linked them all to my reservation. I was able to do this all online one hour earlier than phone lines opened.

Glad it worked out for you!

I had tried the same thing, but the system just wouldn't accept my number and I still had to do it over the phone. I guess it's a pretty common problem.
