I can start making my ADR's tomorrow...

Hi, we will be going to Disney July 26-Aug 2. This will be our granddaughters (3 and 6) first visit. We are not staying on Disney, so I'm a little worried about the ADRs. We would like to do lunch at CRT and Akershaw, how hard are these to get? I realy wanted to save CRT for Friday (and do this in conjunction with BBB), but should I try for earlier in the week, incase Friday is booked? If I am able to secure an ADR for Monday, can I cancel it later if I can get one for Friday? Other than these two, we also wanted to try for a Fantasmic dinner package (Mama Melrose). Any other suggestions???
Thanks ...Maria

Fantasmic package at MM is great. We also like the Brown Derby package, too. As far as ADRs go, I think you might have a problem. If you are staying off property, you can only make a reservation for exactly 90 days out. That means that if tomorrow is the 90 window for the first day of your trip, then that's the only day you will be able to book. You'll have to literally call in each day until you get the reservations completed. For each day you book and you're not on property, you have to be either exactly 90 days or less from that date to book. In other words, the 28th would be the 90 window, but the 29th would be 91 days out and you wouldn't be able to book that.

I might be wrong, but I'm afraid I'm correct on this as I just helped a co-worker with ADRs and he was staying in the Sheraton.

You might need to check on that before you get a big disappointment tomorrow. If you call, WDW dining, they might be able to answer that question for you.

Hope you get the CRT. We did it before and it was a lot of fun. We did breakfast there and loved it. I haven't done the princess breakfast in Norway, but I think CRT is the more coveted of the two. I would try to book that first thing tomorrow for the first day.

Good luck!

I may be wrong but I think your 90 day mark is today not tomorrow.
