My window opened yesterday. Online is *definitely* the way to go!

So the 10 stands for up to 10 days of vacation? So my ADR window will still open 90 days from my arrival date?

Thank goodness for the DIS!

Yes! :) Start about 10 or 15 minutes before 6am. Open multiple tabs, retrieve your resort reservation by entering the resort reservation number where it asks for it. You only need to do this on one tab. After you enter your reservation number, get each restaurant you want, one in each tab, and at 6 am (sometimes a minute or two earlier it happens), the calendar should (I say should) recognize your date and open up a 10 day window for you. Which is to say, it should allow you to enter dates for 10 days in addition to the first one of your arrival date. Then enter away the dates, times and party size, check availability, and add items to your cart just like online shopping. Make sure you are not idle for 20 minutes, or it will time you out. Good luck!!!
 
You know, for those of you that have had trouble, a strategy would be to back load the more desirable ADRs. Push the Le Cellier's and CRTs to the back of your game plan, i.e. closer to the end of your stay. This way, when you log on to do your 90+10, there's a greater chance of getting an ADR for those stays.

With the exception of the CRT I booked 4 days in, I made sure most of our big ones were towards the end of the stay....

That is exactly what I did this morning. We originally wanted to eat at Le Cellier on 12/4, but there was nothing :headache:, so I decided to play around with the dates and found an ADR for 6:45pm on 12/7 which is also the night before we leave :cool1:

The only ADR that I wasn't able to get because we wanted to go on our MVMCP day (12/3) was CRT for breakfast, it is also Morning EMH so I am guessing that is why it is booked up.....however, we were able to get CRT for dinner on the same night :banana: I am not too bummed about it because we also got ADRs for Storybook Princess Breakfast in Norway, so my DDs can see the Princesses then :goodvibes All the other ADRs that we wanted we got within 10 minutes of our requested times.

That's an interesting strategy! I didn't quite understand what you meant at first, but now I do. That's pretty smart!:thumbsup2
 
Glad to hear the online ADRs are working out for most people. My ADR date is Sept. 6th so I will be online at 4am (mountain zone), multiple tabs open and coffee at hand ready to go, thanks for the tips.:cool1::thumbsup2
 
Our trip is 9/27 but we wanted to add Whispering Canyon for my son's b.day instead of Hollywood & Vine(<<what a mistake!) I called the reserv. # and she got me a few others like Boatwright's and Maya Grill...but then SHE LOST MY WHISPERING CANYON! :-(( Luckily I was next to the computer and was able to go online and grab it while she was still trying to get her computer to the next screen.

That made me a believer in online reserv. from now on!
 
Oh you have so encouraged me, my window of 90+10 opens tomorrow. I'm trying on-line for the first time.
 
Question? My 90 days will be on Friday. My sister is coming to my house at 5:00 am with her laptop. So my question is..Can we both be working on the same reservation # at the same time? I'm going for the Epcot ADRs and she's tackling the rest. We have deluxe dining, so we have a lot of ressies to make. I like that extra tab idea. I'll have to play with that and be prepared! Thanks all. Love your stories!

So if I open multiple tabs and set each one to the restaurant of my preference, when 6am (is this eastern time? and my watch is a couple minutes off, how do I know exact time, lol) comes around, I add my resort reservation number before booking the first restaurant, right?... and then I can just work directly on the other tabs on different restaurants without having to retrieve resort reservation number again? :confused3 :confused3

Thank you so much!
