Minnie's Holiday Dine

[mom2rtk]

My friend is making reservations for early November and wants to do Minnie's Holiday Dine. She called this morning at 180 +10 and there was no availability at all.

Does anyone have a feel for whether these are all gone or if they maybe just haven't loaded them in the system yet?

This is supposed to be the first day of the changeover to the holiday meal.

Its probably just not loaded yet. I just checked less than 180 days (like 175 days) out for a dinner there (during the Halloween theming) and there was plenty of availability.

Thanks! I really have to think so too. I told her to keep checking back.

I just checked for Nov. 4th and it shows some dinner's at Hollywood and Vine, which would be Minnie's dining. Are there no spots starting Nov. 7th?

Thanks. Our first day is Nov. 7th, which is the first day of the holiday dine. I was hoping for dinner that night! I'll have to hope they load it in the next few days!

Today is my 180+ 10 and I can't find anything either. However, there are plenty for November 6th and before, which definitely makes me think the system hasn't been loaded yet. Hopefully soon!

Have you tried to call the dining number? Or, just online?

That exact thing happen last year to us near Christmas. Then loads of reservations came up closer to the time. I would keep trying. However I would say this experience was not value for money at all. This was via Our friend who had a ADR the night or two before us and gave us feedback. We cancelled ours. It is a lot of money. We did Prime Time instead and totally enjoyed it!

Just online

I concur that it is not loaded in the system yet. I have been trying to get Nov. 7th for days.

Just online

My friend has tried both online and calling. Nothing yet.

They did the same thing last year for the exact same week, but that was the first time they rolled out the holiday dine. Not sure I understand the hold up this year.

Do you remember when they released them last year?

I'm racking my brain trying to remember, but I'm not sure. I do know that I was up at 4am to snag the reservation though. I want to say it was late May or early June.

UGH. I hope they don't do that again. My friend had it worked out where her DHS day would be at 180+10 to maximize her chances. Now it looks like it will be a free for all.

Thanks for the info though!

Reservations have opened up!!

Now if only they would release the Fantasmic packages as well!

 

[heywagners]

I have been able to see the H&V dinners for the holiday dine, but not Fantasmic packages. I can make my ADR's tomorrow. Do you think if I reserve a H&V dinner, I can add the Fantasmic package once they release them?

I just got off the phone with my friend. She got hers this morning!

Good luck everyone!

I don't think you can add it. They have separate inventory for those. My friend did say the Fantasmic ones were not available yet. But I think she's decided to just go with the regular dinner regardless. Now I'm jealous of all you guys actually going and want to go too!
