Newbie trying ADRs

[Snickals]

Hello...
I am desperately trying to get an ADR at either Akershus, CRT or BOG for dinner or lunch in the first few weeks of December, not fussed on which date just really want to dine at one of those restaurants. It will only be a party of 2 but am having no luck. We are from Australia so trying to do it online. Any tips or help would be greatly appreciated!!!

You will have no problem getting it for just a party of two. Right now it's still a little crazy with the tail end of those who booked FD still hoarding reservations. Just keep checking every few days, especially around the 45 day mark when payments are due and trips are cancelled. Also as often as you can within the last 2 weeks since there are plenty of opening as people firm up their plans. Don't worry, I just checked Akershus and they had 3 opening for lunch/dinner tomorrow so you could always book last minute if all else fails. CRT and BOG might be a bit harder, but still doable.

First of all, use the US dining page (with the Canadian page We had problems And It is worst In french - i love stitch but when is the 4th Time he ate the page...)

Check often. When You have Time. Keep your wifi device with You In all Time.

Check the reservation forum, some people change their mind And are willing to coordinate with the first person Who contact via pm. You need to have 10 messages or more on the board to make It possible. You cannot Ask for A place, You have to Check.

Be open for last minute reservations who can pop up. Even if You are IN Disney World.

I've never done ADRs either; this is my first time. I'm just afraid that we won't be able to get any decent restaurants or character meals if we don't reserve ahead, even though we'd really prefer to just play it by ear when we get there.

I haven't been able to get Akershus either - or Garden Grill or any dinners at all at HS for the last week of Nov/first week of Dec. I'm constantly checking and hoping something will open up for the 4 of us.
