Making a reservation for dining then having extra people join

[jennchris]

So I made our reservations very early on for dining for our family of 5... shortly after that my parents decided to come on the trip also. I was able to change most of the reservations, but I have one for Ohana and one for Coral Reef that I can't seem to get a reservation for the 2 additional people. If they come with us do you think they'd accomodate the 2 extra? I'm going to keep trying for a ressie for them, but just wondering if anyone has experience with this.

Have you tried calling Disney Dining? They may be able to amend your reservation to add the two people - although it may require you getting lucky at CM roulette and end with the right CM on the line. So even if the CM(s) you get tells you no, keep trying.

what about making a reservation for 2 at the same time? that sometimes works. then when you arrive to check in, see if they are able to seat you all together.
