New website/old website ADR's?

[BDmom]

I am doing a lot of reading about dining reservations. I have seen people write that they use the old or the new website. Can someone tell me what the new one is? What is the old one? I have no idea which is which. So that if the one I use next week isn't working I can switch to the other.

Thanks for providing this.

I just go to the disneyworld.com site new? old?

The site at disneyworld.com is the new site. The My Disney Experience portion is what makes it the new site. The old site is accessible through the link to the UK web site which you can find by searching the restaurant board... I don't have it readily available otherwise I'd link it. It's the version of the site before it was re-designed to add to the My Disney Experience, which has since caused a bunch of glitches.

Unfortunately, I didn't have luck with ADRs on either site. I had to call. The new site only recognized the first day (not the +10) and the old site would not link my reservation and frequently gave me errors. If you or anyone else has any luck, let me know!

I believe if you are in the US you are automatically brought to the "new" website, not sure if you can switch back to the "old". HOWEVER, if, like me, you're in Canada, you have no choice but to use the old site

The link to the old site is via the Great Britain web site:

http://disneyworld.disney.go.com/en_GB/

You have to use this web address. No way to get to it via the new site that I know of.

Thanks for posting the link to the old site! Worked beautifully, except for the Hoop-Di -Doo. It only gave me 3 month out availability so I had to call for the 180+10. Got BOG exactly when wanted though! and at 6 am. The new site wouldn't cooperate at all
