Need to vent....so frustrated and disappointed!

Btw....another thing to think about. When we were there last week, I poked around on dinner ressies the day before, and lo' and behold a LOT of tables were opening up at TOP places the day before. People get sick, they change their minds, they double booked etc. If there is a 'HAVE TO GO' place you can't find open, keep checking the day before.

Really!!! Thanks!!! I thought you couldn't change anything a day before. I need to get information straight!

Yes, I do it all the time, sometimes for amusement. I pretend I'm at Disney World and I want to make dinner/breakfast plans for the next day or day after. You wouldn't believe what is available! I had been trying to get a Bon Voyage breakfast, and tonight when I looked at 2 days from now, there were 3 available. Plus Beaches and Cream, Akershus PPO, CRT, and lots of others, some at perfect times. Keep trying!

Keep the watches and don't stress. I didn't book BOG and my family ended up wanting it. When there in march, I didn't get much notifications but then they were constant the week of. I was getting a few every day. *********** will keep notifying you until you stop it unlike touring plan that stop once they find it. Don't worry.

A TON of stuff opens the night before. I check the res finder websites and you can see just how many become avail the night before. People have until midnight the night before to cancel the next day res without a fee.

Thanks so much, I'll keep my searches going and definitely keep checking while we're there.

Last year my family decided they wanted to try 'Ohana a month before we left. I checked every day and couldn't find an opening. When were there I checked twice and both times I found an opening for dinner for the next day.

Thanks, this is all giving me hope.

I totally get you. I get the "whatever you want" line from both DH and DS16 and DD14. DH is not a big Disney fan. Never has been and has left all the planning to me over the years. Our DIS babies will soon be leaving the nest and every vacation moment is precious. I am going to make some ADR's for our upcoming trip but leave it very fluid to see what we might snap up last minute. We don't like to be tied down. We got Free Dining for a portion of our trip but I think I'm going to save the credits and do a couple of signatures. We haven't done Narcossee's or Citrico's. My guys are adventurous eaters so they would be totally comfortable eating at either.
The worst part is taking other vacations. I have to do it all and sometimes I would just like someone to tell me where to go lol. Went to the Virgin Islands this winter and had some travel mishaps. Nobody but me to figure it out. Gets old after a while. That said, I was a a wedding this past January and because of some booking problems and the fact that I didn't love Universal I ended up on my first Solo trip to WDW. Only 2 nights so I didn't have time to be lonely but I really really enjoyed myself. For the first time the decisions I made were what I wanted to do...pretty cool.
