[Tbelle1976]

That's great!

The early bird gets the worm...or the ADR!

 

[DisneyMagic06]

I just started a thread also, I am on hold and have been for 28 minutes!! I called at 7:06am. Hopefully I can get what I want, we are goign the same dates as you.

 

[jill062604]

Keep me posted.....I would be interested in seeing if it was worth getting up so early!!!!!!!! Crossing my fingers for you!!!

 

[ekatiel]

I just made mine, but I'm on hold again b/c I think my WCC ressie may be too late to get to spectromagic on time. Here's mine (party of 6 also):

May 2nd: Garden Grille Dinner
May 3rd: Mama Melrose Fantasmic package
May 4th: 'Ohana Dinner
May 5th: Crystal Palace (late breakfast)
May 6th: Le Cellier (had to get 2 tables for a decent time)
May 7th: WCC dinner (we'll see you there!)
May 8th: Chef Mickey's (already made)

I got everything I wanted, at times between 6pm-7pm (except Fantasmic package: 4:05pm). My WCC ressie is for 6:45 pm, and I'm thinking we may not have time to get to Spectro, so I'm going to try for 2 tables, and hope they seat us together! --Katie

 

[jill062604]

YAY!!!!!!!!!!! I am so excited! Where are you staying???

 

[ekatiel]

We're staying at Pop. UGH! I'm still on hold. . . I got right through the first time! Do you think a 6:45 ressie at WCC will give us enough time to see Spectromagic at 9pm?? I may just hang up and roll the dice-- I want to go back to bed !--Katie

Yikes! I've been on hold since 7:02 EST too! 45 Minutes so far! If I didn't need a couple of hard to get ressies I would hang up and wait till later today. This is as bad as the day that DCL open reservations for the 2010 European cruises. I was on hold with MS for over an hour that day.

 

[Get me to Disney!]

Congratulations! I am going to start stealing other people's list of ADR's to start helping me choose what to do!! Happy trip to you

 

[ekatiel]

I finally got through again, and was able to get WCC for 5:20pm, and we're seated all together! Yea! Now, I feel like I'm officially planned! --Katie

 

[eva]

Finally got through after a 50 minute wait.

Cast of Characters for this trip:
* DD #1 - 26 years old
* DD #2 - 24 years old and 7 months pregnant with 3rd child
* DSIL - 28 years old
* DGS - 6 years old
* DGD - 3.5 years old

Here are our ADR's:

Monday/May 4 - Biergarten for everyone, followed by an Illuminations Cruise (I hope!)

Wednesday/May 6 - Spirit of Aloha Luau for my DD's family of 4 - Jiko for oldest DD, DH, and me

Saturday/May 9 - Raglan Road for just DH and Me (Kids go home that day.)

I can't believe that I got the times I wanted for every ADR. It sure took some time, but was well worth it!

 

[slk537]

Me too!

Just got off booking May 1-10. I have to call back for the rest of the trip, but that is really only one ADR so I'm good. It's really fun to see where everyone else has booked for the same times...no overlaps yet for us though!

I really hope they have a P&P party while we're there. That would be fantastic!

 

[LadyZolt]

Wow, everyone is getting lots of good stuff! I'm going same time frame -- May 2 to May 9. It's just DH and me and we're going b/c of the military ticket deal and 40% off rooms, so we're staying at GF for our first time ever! We're just too excited to sleep!

I got:

May 2 -- day of arrival -- Kona for dinner at 7:20 p.m.
May 3 -- Liberty Tree Tavern dinner at 6:15 p.m. (should be Extra Magic Hours at night this day. The CM noted that this is not a character meal anymore, which I already knew, but it is nice to know that they will tell callers that in case someone wanted a character meal.
May 4 -- Rose and Crown dinner at 7:30 p.m. (hoping for patio for Illuminations, but if not, that's OK, too --we'll be at DISNEY!)
May 5 -- Crystal Palace breakfast at 8:05 a.m.
May 6 -- Narcoossees dinner at 7:00 p.m.
May 7 -- Le Cellier dinner at 5:15 p.m.
May 8 -- Nine Dragons dinner at 6:00 p.m.

We're on the regular dining plan, so I'll pay for the Crystal Palace breakfast OOP since Narcoossees requires 2 TS credits. And this trip will be our first Le Cellier dinner. We had lunch there and really enjoyed that, so looking forward to dinner there.

Hope everyone continues to have good luck in making ressies! Let's all have a magical time!

[Hiner]

I am soooooo jealous of you all!!! I have to wait until Friday, 2/6, to make my ADR's. The only ones I was able to make early was for Chef Mickey's for Dinner and Breakfast. I am waiting on pins and needles!!!!!

 

[snowdrift7]

I made mine last night at 6pm EST and there was no wait and I got everything for 5/1-10. Made 16 reservations in only 15 minutes. I think around dinner time is a good time to call.

LadyZolt, we'll see you at Rose & Crown at 7:30 on 5/4

Hope everyone has a magical may vacation!

 

[SplashMom]

I have mine all made as well! We also got everything we wanted.
April 29 Arrive late evening--just hit the food court at CB
April 30 Kona Cafe
May 1 Le Cellier

May 4 Chef Mickeys
May 5 Whispering Canyon
May 6 Coral Reef
May 7 Mama Melrose (Fantasmic Dinner Package)

Now I finally feel like I have planned. I would love to see the Pirates & Princess Party at some point during our trip. We did it last year and loved it. Anyone know if it will be offered this year?

 

[LadyZolt]

LadyZolt, we'll see you at Rose & Crown at 7:30 on 5/4

Wow, that's terrific! LOL! I've never eaten there. My DH wanted to go here because the menu sounded good to him. Should be a fun night!
