Is PSB as hard to get as CRT?

[CajunGirl2]

Does anyone know if PSB is as hard to get as CRT? I've decided to go with PSB rather than CRT. Just wondering if I need to be on the phone at 6:59 AM for PSB. Our trip is Sept. 25 - Oct. 2. Does anyone know which day has early entry at Epcot? What time does the breakfast start? I've read that with CRT you shouldn't specify what time you want but rather take what you can get. Is it the same with PSB? I'd rather get as early in the a.m. as possible. We're early risers and youngest DD is usually getting tired by 10:30 and ready for a nap by noon.

Ok ... I posted more questions than I anticipated.

Thank for the answers!

Early Entry day at EPCOT is Wednesday. I don't think PSB is quite as hard to get, I'd try to call early in the morning, but maybe not at 7 sharp. You might just ask for the earliest time available?

Good luck, we'll be there almost the same time you are, our dates are 9/26-10/4!

IMHO, I would call right at 7:00a just like CRT.

Not sure if its "As Hard" as CRT - but it's still difficult. We planned our last trip with only about 40 days to go. I called everyday for 20 days or so before getting a cancellation

I called today (6/15) to book PSB breakfast at around 11:30 am CST for the date of 9/12/04. I had no problems getting through and they had numerous time slots avaible. Since I could have called yesterday (6/14) which was exactly 90 days prior, I was a little surprised that I had no trouble booking a PS. I don't know if this helps you or not, but was glad I didn't need to get up at 6 am to make this call.

Thanks mlbretscher. Sounds like maybe Sept. won't be as crowded. I'm usually done dropping off DDs at day care by 7:10 AM Eastern. Sounds like I should be ok if I just wait until then to get on the phone.

I called yesterday morning & was able to get PSB at 8:30 a.m. on Wed., Sept. 29. Wed. is supposed to be an early entry day. Does anyone know if I got the earliest PS for an early entry day? I just ask for the earliest I could get but didn't ask what time was the earliest.

Thanks!

Not sure about the times, but congrats on your PS! I called yesterday to make another PS, but I asked about CRT just in case they had availability (at 1 pm, not likely!), and she said there were still PS available for PSB. Tomorrow I will be booking for our EPCOT meal, I don't know if I want to do PSB or not; I have 2 boys, ages 3 and 1, and they won't know who the princesses are anyway, so I'm not sure. I asked DH, but he didn't have an opinion, just as long as we get to eat somewhere, three times that day.

8:30 is the first seating at PSB. FYI-the first child to check in gets to participate in a special opening ceremony

So, it's the first child that check's in??? That would be awesome for DD4 to get to do that. We're early risers ... DDs are usually up by 6:30-7:00 even on a sleep-in day. We should have NO problem trying to get there for 8:30. Guess we'll drive that day rather than risk being late due to transportation from FW.

I just called today 7/2 and got a PS for PSB on 9/27, it seemed that they had a good number of choices for me on several days between 9/26 and 9/29. Just wanted to let anyone who was interested know.

Just be sure to get there EARLY! We got there at 8:15 for our 8:30 and there was already a mob there - the opening it cute though
