Need help with plans for ADRs in two weeks

[newtodis]

Hey All!!

We're (possibly - still not 100% sure, but like 98% sure) going to Disney with friends 2/27-3/3 (at the longest). The friends were going with have never been so I was thinking I would try and make one ADR (thinking breakfast possibly or a later dinner) during the short trip. Am I crazy to try and get anything at this point?? How does the new system work?? Do I still call the 407 #s I called for the Dec trip?? I haven't been following all of the changes since I wasn't expecting to go again this soon honestly.

Suggestions for us to try and get at this point?? We've never been during "peak" season....it will be 4 adults and 3 kids (4,4 and 2 - all boys!). Breakfast I was thinking CMs or TH but I'm also thinking those are LONG SHOTS at this point. I don't have an idea for dinner at all really. I was thinking a character meal so that the kids would be entertained while we ate and the adults might get a minute to catch up (bit of background...friends are from MI and we haven't seen them since we moved other than a short visit last summer for a couple of days).

TIA for any help you can provide! I'm having Disney stress since I usually pain-stakingly plan out our trips...yikes!

It might've been a fluke, but we snagged breakfast at CM's the day before.

Ye have not because ye ask not. Just make a list, in order of preference, and give 'em a call!

407-WDW-DINE is the magic number.

i wouldnt waste time at a breakfast, teh kids are going to be excited to go, won't want to sit, etc....I'd shot for a dinner at CM or the GG in epct or what might interest yu...kids will still be interested in characters and u may be able to chat....good luck

Thanks!

So glad you were able to get CM so close! We've decided to go so I've got to get on the phone in the morning and start to see what's available. Depending on what's available is I guess what we'll take!
