I just made all of my ADR and got CRT!!!!!

Ok so it isn't on the morning that I would prefer or as early, but I called and got right in! I can't believe it! It seemed too easy.

The funny thing is I didn't take the first available slot and had him check on the other date I really wanted. Since there wasn't a table big enough for our party size (5), I had him go back to the first choice and it was still there so I took it!

I have heard the food isn't that great, but our 3 yr daughter will be in awe! Our 8 yr old daughter will probably enjoy it too, but our 6 yr old son WILL NOT thrilled. I figure if there is the "Toy Story" type breakfast out by then we will add that on and pay for it!

Yeah! 180 days to go!

Congratulations! It's a great feeling isn't it! I know it cost a lot of money, but I still think that there is no other experience like dining in the castle. If you don't mind me asking, what day is your arrival day? I'm arriving on Sept. 30 and Disney dining told me that tomorrow is my day. Wish me some pixie dust too!

Me too!!! I called first thing this a.m. and was told that I could only book 180 days to the day I wanted to eat there. I posted on here and someone else told me they booked for 10/1 at 182 days. So, I called back just minutes ago and got right through, no holding and we're going on 10/5 nice and early!!! I'm SOOOO excited!!!! My daughter will be 3 in August and I just gave her the news, she is freaking out she's so excited!!! (our arrival is 9/29)

Shelby - I WAS going to take the 10-5-06 at 8:20am but needed to have a reservation for 5 people and they couldn't take my family at that time! Good for you! By the way, I was the one who answered about the 180 days!!

My kids don't know we are going yet. We are doing an Easter basket filled with WDW goodies and breaking the news then.

Kristen - Good luck tomorrow! I hope all goes as smoothly for you as it did for me this morning. I really didn't try calling until around 6:57am. Maybe that makes a difference? We are arriving on 9-29 and I am counting down the days.

Thanks so much! I have to admit that I'm a little upset now. I tried to call Disney dining again after reading Shelby's post. Congrats to you too Shelby! I was hoping they would let me book early too, but they won't. Every agent I've spoken to is following the rules of 180 days. Which I guess is the right thing, but seeing others got in, I was hoping I would too! I'm going to wait patiently until tomorrow and try again. Wish me luck guys and congratulations to you both again!

I thought that was you!! I actually posted back to you in my thread where I asked about the 180 days. If it weren't for you I wouldn't have gotten my ADR!!! Thanks!!!! And I'm really happy you needed a table for 5! At the timeshe told me they had a later one too but I was happy to go earlier!! What a relief that it's taken care of!! She was looking and it was all booked solid until she got to Thursday! Phew! What a relief since our last chance would have been Friday!!

Now, I thought they were allowed to book as long as you were within 180 days of your arrival. That's why I posted on here this morning. I don't understand why everyone doesn't do the same thing when you call there. Weird, eh?

gabbyrosebud - I hope you get your ADR!!!!! Let us know!!!

Hi again! I misunderstood you I guess. I thought that Shelby posted she was at 182 days before her arrival, not inside of the 180 days. Oops! I'm sorry, then you getting a reservation makes total sense. My 180 day mark is tomorrow because I arrive 9/30. This is correct right? I better get all my ADRS ready for tomorrow at 7:00AM sharp!
Musicwoman, that's such a cute idea about the Easter basket. What a great surprise for your kids!
