I got EVERY ADR I wanted!!

[Jenny-momof3]

With all the horror stories I've heard on here and on TGM about not being able to get hardly any ADR's I was so nervous to do this. Especially since we'll be there over 4th of July.

Since I'm doing a split stay I had to call for part of my adr's yesterday and got the rest of them today. I do have to call for 1 more tomorrow since they're only booking through July 9.

We're a party of 7... 5 adults, 3 children. I requested everything within the 5 pm range with the exception of 1 night. This is what I got....

Sat. June 27 Crystal Palace 4:55pm
Sun. June 28 Chef Mickey's 7:35pm
Mon. June 29 1900 Park Fare 4:50pm
Tue. June 30 Whispering Canyon 5:10pm
Wed. July 1 Garden Grill 4:30pm
Thu. July 2 F. package/MM 5pm ( can't believe I got this!!)
Fri. July 3 Crystal Palace 5pm
Sat. July 4 Hoop Dedoo 5pm
Sun. July 5 Prime Time Cafe 5:35pm
Mon. July 6 Askerhaus 5:25pm
Tues. July 7 LeCellier 5:25pm ( can't believe I got this!!)
Wed. July 8 Chef Mickey's 5pm

This is our first time on the DDP and many of these places our new to us! As you can see... I picked most of our places based on characters/ atmosphere. We're a lively family who like to have fun. We are sooo looking forward to dining at all these places!

Congrats to you... I'm very happy you got them all. I hope, I'm getting all of mine so, hopefully, we'll get the same pixie dust. How long were you on hold for?

Yesterday morning I was on hold for about 25 minutes the first time. The CM wouldn't let me book anything but the 1st night since I have a split stay. So I called back and was on hold for maybe 10 minutes or so and got a wonderful CM who let me book through my 2nd resort.

This morning I started calling at 6:58 and just kept hitting redial until they opened. As soon as I got through the prompts I got a CM... no wait at all!

Report back what you got... sending pixie dust your way.

You give me hope on my call on April 19th. I too have a split stay and have never had a problem before, but have been watching the threads closely.

That's fantastic Jenny! Nice to have all the worry and planning pay off. We also got almost everything I wanted and according to DH he got everything he wanted. Our only miss was Le Cellier (amazing you got that), but we took Tutto instead and that was his #1 pick over Le Cellier.

I even managed a Fantasmic package by calling back the true 90 day from the date I wanted it. I couldn't get it 5 days earlier on my 90+10 but got it on the actual 90.

I had also read all the scary stories and was nervous last week, but got all of the ADRs and times we wanted (except for having to eat early for Fantasmic!) and had no more that a 6 minute wait on my second call, 4 minutes on my first. Great CMs and no trouble with losing ressies or computer glitches at all.

Well, now I don't feel like such a goof for booking the same place twice.

Thanks it worked! I had to wait 61 minutes but I got all my ADRs...

I have one for each day except one day I have 2. We are eating at Restaurant Marrakesh, Biergarten, Kona Cafe, Hoop Dee Doo, Flying Fish, Chef Mickey's, CRT Dinner, The Wave, Hollywood Brown Derby with Fantasmic Package & Tusker House. I still want to eat at Raglan Road, Tutto Italia Ristorante & Chef De France. I really don't want to eat at Chef Mickey's but my friends do. I might change that one.

I got all my ADRs this morning as well. Le Cellier was a little later than I wanted 8:25pm ( wanted 7:30pm) but I can live with that as it is an EMH night. Got Le Cellier for DD and DSIL for 8:20pm . We got Chef Mickey's dinner, Crystal Palace lunch and Wolfgang Puck upstairs for DS and DDIL. We are not doing tons of dining with our 2 grandsons (2yr and 8 months) Each couple will have 1 nice dinner alone. Can't wait!

Glad to see others are getting what they wanted as well.

JeninTen~ I also booked Chef Mickey's twice as well. My kids are all about the character dining and we love it too. Don't overly love the food there but it's all about the kids.
