Making ADRs tomorrow - a couple questions.....

[Northern Disney Girl]

Trip dates: Nov 29-Dec 6

Here is my list of wants:

Friday November 30 - The Plaza @ 11:30am

Saturday Dec 1 - PPO Garden Grill @ 8am

Monday Dec 3 - Trail's End @ 10:30am, GF Tea @ 4pm

Wednesday December 5 - Beaches & Cream @ 12:30pm

I have been stalking MDE for the past week or so watching to see if there are any available times leading up to my dates.

The one i am most concerned about is Garden Grill.

From what I have read, it seems as though Disney is holding back on releasing Epcot TS times until the CP dining packages are released.

Here are my questions:

1. Has anybody been successful in getting a PPO ADR at Garden Grill on a day where CP is scheduled?

2. If Disney is holding back ADR times, should I even bother trying to get a PPO for GG tomorrow morning or just wait until the CP packages are released?

This one decision is going to affect the order in which I attempt to get the remainder of my ADRs.

TIA for any help!

How many are in your group? My trip overlaps with yours (until the 4th) so I can tell you what it shows available now, if that helps.

@Northern Disney Girl
I think that you should try to get your ppo GG first.
Then Beaches and Cream followed by the rest. Is you Plaza an ADR for parade viewing? If so, I would go for that 2nd.
I've never known a ppo to interfere with the CP ADRs. I thought the CP ARRs may be a bit later...

I have no idea what order you should go in, but this is what shows for the days I can see. (I wish I had thought of asking someone to look before my ADR day!)

11/30 The Plaza shows 11:15 & 12:10 for parties 1-4, 11:05 & 12:10 for Party of 5
12/1 Garden Grill shows 9:50 for party of 2, 9:20 for parties 3+
12/3 Trails End has lots of availability, including 10:30
12/3 GF Tea has 2:45 & 3:50

Just 2 of us.

Thanks

How did you do?

How did you do?

I got everything except Garden Grill.

I am hoping that I can snag one using the TP reservation finder. Or in the days leading up to the 60 day mark when people start frantically switching things up to accommodate for FP+.

If we don’t get it, it’s not a huge deal... just thought it might help knock out the 3 biggies at EP since we are only doing 1 day there.
