nervous ADR wreck!!!

[diserwannabe]

OMGoodness!! I am such a nervous wreck. My trip is starting on Sept 2nd and we are staying 7 nights. I did the BB that was offered last Sept. I upgraded to the DxDDP and I am so excited. It's getting down to the wire now...I was told I could make all of my ADR's on the same day and she said to call on March 6th. Does this sound right? Can some of you "advanced" disers do the math for me and tell me if this is correct?

I have never even had a trip booked more than 3 months in advance before so I would just book the trip and make ADr's the same day. I am sooo hoping I will get my requests with this much notice. Last year, I even got my LeCelliar ADR for lunch... pure luck I guess since it was only 3 months in advance. This time I want it for dinner...cross your fingers, lol! I also do not know what the earliest time on March 6th to call (central time) I feel like a nervous wreck !! Can someone make sure this is the right day to call and the time of day? Thank you all so much...this forum gives me so much info...forget the TA's, lol!!

Yes, I figured your date to be 3/6 and calling at 6:00 your time!!!

Here ia an ADR calculator March 6 checks out with your Sept.
check in date @ 180 days , But can't you bump that 10 days earlier if you are staying on site?

No. The +10 means that you can call on the 180 days before your check in date and make ADRs for up to 10 days. You can't call sooner than 180 days before check in.

ok thanks, that explains it, I wasn't really sure how that worked the 10+ thing and our check-in is Sept. 21 so I Just go back 180 days (using the handi-dandy ADR calculator)from there and we can book our 7 TS for our 7 night stay on that day. We did the 180 day thing last year and got every thing and every time we wanted for 9 TS.

I've been calling at my 180 day mark for a few trips now. I have always managed to get what I want. Though I have to say I've never called for CRT at breakfast, but a lot of the other popular places have always been fine. The reservation place opens at 7am EST, so the poster that said 6am was on the money for central time.

Planning is half the fun. Going over all the menus and picking what you would order.
