My 180 day for ADR's has arrived-slight problem

[crabbie1]

Well I have booked for november
captains grill dinner on the 9th 17.30
Crystal palace bfast on the 10th-08.25
Le cellier lunch at 12.50 on 11th
chefs de france at 19.30 dinner(was debating tuti italy)
Ohana dinner on 12th dinner.
Now I just phoned to book fantasmic and cm said not able to book till august.He said the hours werent out. I tried to book on the web but nothing there for fantasmic. Its only 180 days today. Wanted 10th or 17th. I cant book the 17th as staying at aklv though DVC but nothin for 10th. I did phone again and was told they are booking but only brown derby availible. As my moms in a wheel chair and we are only booking package not to queue is it worth just booking mama melrose as a meal? Would we still have to queue in the regular queue.
Loads of availibility for everything.Even CRT dinner bfast and le cellier dinner.
When can I book my post cruise ressies as not on DDP? Obv not a disney booking.

I think a few people have had problems with the Fantasmic Package. It wouldn't work for me online but I tried last week and was able to book Mama Melrose for 3rd November each day I tried before those days but they were greyed out.

Hope you get it sorted, I would just keep trying each day. HTH

if I were you I'd phone again - use a cheap phone deal. We read the thread onthe restaurant board and we did have problems online but a cm found us an opening when we phoned (last week in october) and others reported some cm could do it and some not.

I can book the 6th Nov no problem online, but not the 10th I assume thats because I don't have a Nov reservation and need to be logged in to do 180+10.

I just tried for the 10th and it shows no availability at H&V and MM. Like you said it's only showing availability at BD.

thanks guys.I will look everyday but prob wont get in .Will just book a meal on ddp and as my mom in a wheel chair have been told will go in a seperte line anyway if we dont have any luck. Can I book my adrs after the cruise day by day from 180 days? so I can try for fantasmic on the 17th may for 17th november?

Is your second onsite stay (after the cruise) not a completely separate reservation? If so you need to wait until 180 days from check in to that resort and then you can make all the ADRs for the last part of your trip.

Thanks lee. We are staying at aklv booked through dvc not on ddp though so presume can book from the 17 th as thts when we check in.

Just checked for the 17th and it's showing availability at all 3 restaurants! So hopefully you'll be able to book one of them in a few days!

Actually May 21 is 180 days out from Nov 17.

Here's a 180 day calculator on the Dis:

The dining reservations system has been experiencing a number of problems both online and phone recently. It's frustrating because it means that you have to keep trying.
