How much time on hold?

[PanandCindy'smom]

Tomorrow morning is my 90 day ADR date. If I call at 7am, about how much time can I guess to be put on hold for? I need a plan for about how long I will need to occupy the kids if they are awake for. I am armed with markers, stickers, dvd's, and the standard Playhouse Disney morning line up.

I'm not totally sure how I am going to pull this off. They do not know about the trip yet.

How long have you been put on hold?

0-2 minutes. Seriously, no wait at all. If it were me, I don't believe I'd bother to wake up at at the crack of dawn to do this...

 

[PanandCindy'smom]

No wait, really? Well that will just make my day! I had visions of being on hold for like 45 minutes.

Sadly, I can't say that I would be getting up early just for this...they wee alarms that I call children were up at 6:30 today! Why did I have to wake my son for school all year but now that summer is here he is up before the sun??

I think your wait will be longer than 2 min.

You are going during Free Dining. The previous poster is going before Free Dining.

Good Luck, hope you get all your ADR's.

True, but I called twice yesterday and once a few days ago (all during free dining ressies time) and there was NO HOLD.

Thank you for the input. I'm up, the kids are still sleeping and I'm about ready to call. I'll let you know how long it was when I'm done!

We are also going during free dining. DBro called at 7:00 am on his 90 day marker and was on hold for only 5 minutes. I on the other hand called on mine and was on hold for 25 minutes before getting a cast member. Got all the meals except for Le Cellier that I wanted though so it was worth it! Good Luck!

YAY! The hold was less than 2 minutes, the children are still sleeping and I got all the places I wanted with just a little shifting of days or times! I hope this is an indication that the whole vacation will go smoothly!

I got:
Crystal Palace dinner arrival night
Akershus breakfast
Chef Mickey's breakfast
Hollywood and Vine lunch
Liberty Tree Tavern lunch

I'm a happy camper this morning!

Congrats on getting your reservations done with the kids in bed! My dog saw a squirrel and went crazy ... I had to bribe her with treats

My hold time was 8 minutes this morning. Had to change the day we wanted 'Ohana but other than that, we got everything we wanted!

Chef Mickey's dinner
Narcoossee's
Chefs de France dinner
Wave lunch
'Ohana dinner

I called at 7:14am last Thursday and it rang one time before I got answered. So like 2 seconds...

Sounds like what ever the problem was a while ago is fixed.

I just hope that when it's my turn to book ADR's the system is running well.

Good to hear you both got what you wanted.
