Making ADR'S

[kaymak]

Do you have to have your trip booked before you can make your ADR'S? I know my dates I just haven't booked yet, but I would like to go ahead and make my reservations. Thanks

I made all my ADR prior to switching over to the DDP with the Annual Pass. Never had a problem. They'll just ask you where your staying and a phone number you can be reached at.

I've made ADRs several times before making any lodging ressies. You only need to have lodging ressies if you plan on using the 180+10 for onsite guests.

Keep in mind that there are a LOT of local residents who eat in WDW restaurants and never stay in a hotel. There's even an "Epcot after 4 PM" annual pass to accommodate those folks, and all our friends in Orlando have one.

Thanks, this is kind of what I was thinking but I wanted to be sure. I only have to wait 2 more days!

Does 180+10 mean I can call 180 days before the first day of your onsite vacation and make ADRs for 10 days of your trip? Is there a special number you have to call or just the regular dining number?
Thank you.

Yes, that's exactly what 180 +10 means. You call the regular 407 WDW-DINE number to do so. They'll need your confirmation number, and then you can make your reservations.

Anyone can call at 180 days, it's the +10 that's special for onsite guests.
