More adr panic!!

[ellis9905]

So my adrs are fast approaching and I'm starting to get stressed as I'm booking for 10 of us.

I was under the impression the phone lines open 7 am GMT....which is fine...

But now I'm seeing you can book on line from 6am??!? If this is right... Where do I book online?

Which is the best/ easiest way to book?

I'm must admit I'll be glad once these blooming adrs are booked !!

It's actually phone lines at 7 am EST, so noon our time and 6 am online EST, which is 11 am here.

To do online bookings you can access this option through the MDE app, or log into the WDW website

Do you have your reference number for making ADR's yet? If not, you may want to get that sorted while you wait for your window to open as you'll need it if you are staying onsite and wanting to make use of the +10 to book more than one day at a time. What you are looking for is either a 12 digit numerical reference, or an alpha numerical one of 8 characters in ABC12345 format.

So as online opens an hour before phone bookings , is online my best chance of getting the adrs I want??

I apologise for all the numpty questions!

I'd say yes, I do think online is your best best. However, I've never done ADRs by phone.

If you are booking on your 180 day mark you will be fine - don't panic.

If you want Be Our Guest - book that first as it is the only one that tends to book right on the window now.

Use the website rather than the app if you are booking any meals that require a CC guarantee as the app doesn't allow you to book those restaurants.

I booked on line last year for a party of 12, don't panic if you can't get some bookings, some you have to phone for larger groups (Rain Forest Cafe was one that I remember). I'd advise to do as many on-line as you can, I find it quicker and use phone as back-up. Good Luck

I want to book cinderellas for breakfast... Park fayre for breakfast ..... B.b.b boutique and the pirate pals firework cruise...

Another silly question can I book bibbidi and pirate pals on line?

Sorry!!

 

[Elise79]

BBB & the Pirates cruise will need to booked by phone.

You should get both breakfasts without issues. CRT is not the hard to get ADR it once was

As I'm staying off site in a private villa I have no booking ref to link it to ... Is this an issue??

Not at all. Anyone can make reservations. It's just if you stay onsite you can make your first 10 days of reservations in one go instead of having to call back/go online one day at a time but you can still make your bookings the same way onsite guests do and it's on a first come, first served basis, so you don't lose out by being in a villa
