Not bad for such a late start...

Being a Disney veteran normally I plan my trips so that I can make my 180+10 ADRs. A few days ago we decided to go for free dining 9/12-9/13. I'm the planner and the family depends on me to get the ADRs for traditional meals that we love. To add to the pressure DS,20 is bringing along his GF for her first ever trip. I convinced myself that with such a late start this ADR thing was going to be UGLY.

I'm so happy to say that with a little patience and good timing that I think it's coming together great!

I've managed to snag Ohana's breakfast, Mama Melrose F! Package, CM for our first day-even though it's brunch, Akershus for lunch and CP for breakfast on our departure day. With the release of BOG breakfast I now have a Pre Park Open breakfast that's right next to 7DMT --woohoo!!! We are on the deluxe dining plan so we also have the Luau and HDDR along with some nice signature spots-Jiko, Boat House, and Yachtsman.

I'm still looking for Biergarten for lunch-this is a must do and I'm sure there is glitch in the system somewhere since it's unavailable at all for the whole month of September. May also give up the Luau if I can snag an Ohana's dinner.

Overall I'm very happy with what I've been able to put together after a late start!!

I got a late start too for September and I think I have all my must have ADRs and after a few weeks of switching they're all at the times I wanted.

I just started with a September trip this week and am feeling great about what I've snagged so far! I'm shocked, since I got such a late start.

I've picked up CRT (still can't believe that one! I do wish it was pre-RD, but at 74 days out I'll take it! It's a first for our family.), BOG, CM, Akershus. I'm still looking for Ohana, but have some others booked that will work just fine.

Snagged a late Ohana last night for our first night there, 9:35 ADR. Our traditional first night dinnner is at CM, all I can get is brunch so I've been stalking to see if I can get it, found the Ohana instead. So I think we will be skipping CM for the first time ever.

Biergarten has plenty of spots open now and I had my choice of times for lunch, so happy about this one....I LOVE Biergarten and is my only personal must have.
