La Hacienda at 8:15pm and Illuminations

Still don't know if I will do this or not but we have this ressie right now. What are the odds we get seated by a window and what are the odds we get seated before 9pm?

There's really no way to know this. Will depend on how many guests who have window tables cling to them in hopes of seeing the show. You would probably get seated before 9 but there's no way to know if it would be at a window table.

1) Normally people try for 7:00-7:15pm ressies for a window table.
2) Then, they hang onto them until the fireworks..

We had 730pm reservations last month and had a window table. I saw people coming in later and they did not get window tables. Below are some of my pics of the view.

So I should probably just stick with the 7:45 ressie I have on another night and ask for a window table and hope I get lucky then?

That's exactly what it is - luck. But it's worth trying!
Good luck

In February we had a 7:45 PM ADR - we checked in and asked about a window seat. We were told that they would do their best but couldn't promise anything. When were we seated, we were against the back wall. All of the window tables were taken and no one - no one - was leaving. At first I was disappointed. Then when Illuminations started I was surprised at exactly how much we could see. The shots low to the ground couldn't be seen, but much of the rest of the show was pretty good. Was it the same as being against the windows or outside -no. I was happy with our seats. Some of the tables are in another dining room and there is no way you could see anything from your seat.
