We are staying at Contemporary Sept 21 to 27. I was never able to get us a breaqkfast at chef mickey. What are the chances of one opening up while we are there????? Shoiuld we try to walk up and get seated????
 
Try asking the cm at concierge desk if they can find a reservation for you when you get there. If not, try going to Chef Mickeys when they first open and see if they have an opening. Good luck!
 
Prepare to be embarrassed and a little ticked off. One of my employees tried it 2 weeks ago and was literally laughed at. The CM then repeated the question to another CM and they both laughed together. I've never had a problem with a CM and I think they're saints to put up with frequent rude, pushy and clueless guests. I think laughing at someone like this is unprofessional, however.
 
Make sure you try this thread first - it's the "Cancelled ADRs - September" thread. People tend to overbook their ADRs sometimes when trying to figure out their schedule, then dump a lot of ressies when they get their plan nailed down.

People will post their cancellations before they cancel them, giving you a chance to pick it up. If you pick "email notification" when you subscribe to the thread, it will email you instantly the message and you can see if it's something you want.

I used this over Christmas and got myself a Chef Mickey's this way!
 

I would keep trying every day multiple times a day right up until the day you leave as people cancel all the time and you never know when something might become available. If that doesn't prove to be successful, I would keep checking while you're there. The chances of you getting in by walking up is highly unlikely as Chef Mickey's is very popular, but you can try....it wouldn't hurt :wizard:.

Perfectly stated. We booked our free dining package for August 2010 approximately one month before our trip. We were resigned to the fact that we would not be able to get some of our preferred restaurants. However, we subscribed to the Cancelled ADRs - August 2010 thread. By the time our family of five left for our trip, we had all of the ADRs we wanted.
 
We have had great luck over the years just walking up and getting a table ay CM's. Staying at the CR will help as well, be sure to mention that you are staying there. Longest we've waited is 30 minutes or so but try to get there early if possible, before they open helps.

Good luck!
 
Keep trying, multiple times a day. I too thought I wouldnt get and adr for cm. We will be in Disney the end of aug/Sept. After weeks of trying, a time opened up on the day i needed. Good luck!!
 
I hope you keep trying. There are some ADR that I couldn't get on the phone but I got online and vice versa. I got lunch at Le Cellier online and Ohana's over the phone. I had to keep trying to get these. :goodvibes

You may also want to call 45 days out (day people have to pony up the money or cancel) 30days out the day you really have to have your money in if you know to call and ask for extention to pay. 7 days out when many either finalize their plan or cancel trip . Then of couse the night before and morning of. These are the day people are more likely to cancel.

We rented a private boat for illuminations which I feverishly got up at 6am to call and get one of 7 boats that day. Once aboard we found out from the skipper that although they sell out quickly on the phone they ususally have a few available each night because people change their plans and guests assume they could never get one . Ask and you often are given:goodvibes With online adrs its so easy to check why not try?
 
Keep trying several times a day if you can. Last night I got CM dinner for Columbus Day weekend...8 guests at 6:40pm. Don't give up.
