My little dilemma

[vicb224]

Have a reservation for LTT at 4p the day of my MVMCP, however... We don't have hoppers and are doing DHS during the day. I know we can get in AT 4p with our party tickets and I'm pretty sure no matter how hungry we look they won't let us in the park at 3:45 for our ressie. What to do?

We are in the same situation. LTT reservations at 4p and hate to waste one of our park tickets. Considering canceling LTT but unsure.

You are correct that you will not be allowed into the park on your party ticket prior to 4:00. You could plan to be at MK around 3:45-3:50 so you can enter at exactly 4:00 and hurry as best you can to get to LTT. Or you could try to get a 4:15 or later ADR to give yourself a little extra time. The only other thing you can do is go to MK that day in the morning for a few hours and then come back just before 4:00, where you could re-enter MK since you were there that morning. Other than those 3 things, there's not a whole lot more you can do as entrance with the party ticket will not be allowed prior to 4:00. Good luck.

I think they would let you in early for an ADR. They do it all the time for Castle breakfast dining. Even if you have to wait until 4 to get in just be fast as LTT as it is not to far from entrance. Could even send one person to let them know rest of you are on the way. I would line up early though to make sure you do get in at 4 and not have to wait behind others. Calling and checking about getting in 10 mins early might be a good idea. Have a great time

Call LTT and explain situation. Ask if you are 5 minutes late if it will be a big deal. Try being at entrance early so you can run right in

There are no direct lines to disney restaurants. Calls are sent to a call center.

A reservation is canceled at the discretion of the staff. But it's usually at 15 minutes past. So your options are as Mickeynut1 says.

There are direct lines to restaurants! In the past 24 hours I've talked directly to T-Rex and Via Napoli (fun fun since they have extremely strong accents!).

Call the reservations line directly. They can give you the phone # or transfer you to the restaurant through the operator.

Trex is a chain that is not owned by disney, so there is a direct number publically available.

It sounds like from other posts there may be ways to reach some of the restaurants. But to be safe, I would still suggest what mickeynut1 says. They last thing you want is to have to wait for a table when you could be enjoying the party. (especially since you're paying extra for the party).

When I made my ADR this past August I was able to get the direct line to Via Napoli when I needed to negotiate table ressies (you can't do more than 10 there on the reservation line). I was told that I was talking with the restaurant, and I believe it was--strong Italian accent and just slightly rude...
I was told by the dining reservation line that there is not a direct line available to call LTT (for an even larger group). I was told by the reservations line that I should stop in at LTT before our visit to check about our request.

Same here! Lots of background noise, very strong Italian accent I could barely understand,..... I will go to my grave believing I was speaking to the hostess at V.N. She finally just asked if I wanted to speak to a manager. Yes please! We were trying to go over the max reservation for the C.P. (allow 14 and we need 15)

The DD agent was so super nice. She called the operator and stayed on the line with me until I was transferred directly to V.N.

Bummer that you can't get a better answer ahead of time.

There actually are direct lines to the restaurants. As a TA, if my client calls me that they are running late I call the restaurant to let them know the client is on the way and ask them to hold the reservation for them.

Are you at the park a previous day when you can stop at LTT and have them make a notation directly ON your ADR or call Disney Dining and have them note ON the ressie that you have tickets for MNSSHP and will enter park AT 4 so please allow 15 minute hold for in-park arrival?? Not sure if they will, but it never hurts to call and ask!
