Late September could be busy--

[Uncleromulus]

At least judging from my luck so far. Couldn't get any closer than an hour and 20 minutes to what I wanted at California Grill, 1/2 hour at Flying Fish, and 45minutes at V&A.
At least I got the restaurants, but being "off" in times for just 2 people seems a bit unusual...can't recall that happening since I've been making reservations.
Let's see how my other 4 choices go---

Wow, thanks for the heads up! I am planning my annual fall trip...usually late Spetember.early Oct.

Let me ask you...I thought they changed the bookings for ADRs to 90 days out, not 120. Is it still 120? If so, I need to start getting organized for the trip!

BTW, nice to "see" you again...I haven't been on this board in awhile, so I like to see a familiar "face."

Boy, do I feel dumb! I cannot believe I thought they switched it back to 90 days. I just looked it up on allearsnet. I need to get on the ball!

Maybe some people are anicipating free dining, so they are snapping up ADRs?

Actually it's now back to 180!!!
And I guess the DDP etc has as much to do with it as anything else--

It's actually 180 days now... they had switched at one point to 90 days, but then switched back.

UGH! See what happens when I don't visit this forum for awhile????

Thanks...but now I gotta get to work!

I wonder if people who aren't booked yet are making ADRs in case they can get free dining? If that's the case and if an offer besides FD comes out, I'd expect to see some cancellations.

I tried to get a breakfast at Tusker House in Sept. and only 2 time slots for my day were available.

This is my thought. I actually did make ADR's for a trip that I hadn't booked. I had hoped that they would announce free dining the week that I could make ADRs , so I went ahead. Still hoping for free dining but we booked anyway with a 30%pin that I had gotten months ago, so I won't be cancelling my dining reservations.
