Increase a reservation?

[warrenz1963]

Can I increase the size of my party on an existing dining reservation without having to cancel the original and making an entirely new reservation?

You can try to modify your reservation via My Disney Experience (or on the app), but it is subject to availability.

Yes, as above, you can modify online. Be aware that if increasing from an even number of guests to an odd number, the system may tell you there are no tables available for that odd number, but if you add one and look for an even number of guests, you'll find availability. Book it - there is no penalty for showing up with fewer guests than booked, as long as at least one person shows up.

Try and modify. We couldn't do this. couldn't call the restaurant, and had to stop by in person to modify.
Good luck!
