Newbie - ADR Question

[Mandy26692]

Hello All,

Not sure if this question is answered somewhere else, but I haven't come across it. My husband and I are going to Disney for the first time this August. We got the DDP and I made our reservations already. I have an Aunt in Florida who may meet up with us on two days of our trip. I went ahead and made the ressies for those two days for 3 people instead of 2. If she decided not to go, do I need to call and change the reservations to 2 people or should I just let them know when we get there that there will only be 2 of us?

I vaguely remember reading somewhere that reservations can get lost in the shuffle when you call and make changes, so I am worried about that happening. Also can I call at any point and confirm all of my ressies just to make sure? Thanks for any help!

We had the same situation a couple of years ago with MIL and FIL joining us for part of the stay. We made all of our ADRs to include them, but they left a couple of days early. We just went to the restaurants and told them when we arrived. There was no problem at all.

If you have adr's at a character meal or a dinner show, you will be charged for the "no show" - these are at ads that needed to be secured w/a credit card. If not, it's not imperative to change reservation, but I think it's polite and the right thing to do. Just be sure to get the new confirmation #. It is a good idea to confirm the adr's before leaving home - if you reach a cm that is unpleasant about it, hang up and talk to someone else. I have found that as long as I have my adr confirm#'s all is good - twice over the years they had "lost" my adr, (or ps back then) but because I have my numbers, they always accomadated me w/o issue.

Thanks guys for the help. I don't have any ressies for character meals, so that shouldn't be an issue. As soon as I find out if we will have the third person or not I will call and make the changes if we need them. Thanks again for the help!
