[PixieMama]

Anytime!

Made our ADR's yesterday too! I was able to get everything except T-Rex. The lady did say we should be able to walk up & still get a table but I will keep trying. That's the only place my son requested and our trip is celebrating HIS b-day so I have to make it happen one way or another

You will probably have better luck if you call TRex directly instead of using WDW Dining.

This is right from the Disney website:

Please call (407) 828-TREX (8739) to make reservations up to 180 days prior to your visit.

For parties of 9 or more, please contact the restaurant directly at (407) 828-TREX (8739).

This location can accommodate most special dietary needs. Advance notice may be required and cancellation fees may apply. 48-hour advance may be required. Please contact the restaurant directly at (407) 828-TREX (8739). Please indicate any special dietary need at time of reservation booking. Learn more about how we can help accommodate special dietary needs.

Did you try calling T-Rex directly? I called yesterday and was able to reserve for 10/25. Our 180 isnt until 4/28, but I had no problems booking yesterday. If you need it, the number is 407-828-8739. We are only a party of 3, not sure if that made a difference.

Got my ADR's made!!

I've been calling when I get off of work so I think I missed one or two but I will wait till I can actually do it on the website to make any more instead of trying to do it over the phone. All the important ones are booked!!

10/20 crew we have 6 days until ADRs woohoooooo

Anxiously waiting! I keep having mini-nightmares that I've overslept and or totally forgot the morning of . The good news is I've finalized our plans so now it's just the waiting part.

Hi everyone. We are going for a short October trip. We have been in October before, and absolutely couldn't wait to go back. We will be staying at POR for the first time, in the Royal Rooms. Our dates are 10-10 to 10-16

 

[AuroraRose]

Just added a couple more ADRs! I'm still hoping for a Be Our Guest reservation, though.

Glad things are still going well for everyone making their ADRs!! I can't believe how fast the time is flying by!

There's something I've been wondering about lately, and since I'm sure a lot of y'all have done MNSSHP before I thought you might know. (Or not. I've done it twice and don't know for sure.)

I know party tickets let you in before the party starts. So that means that you can be in the park in costume before the party starts, right? So you could conceivably get pictures in costume with characters that wouldn't be out during the party?

Yep. That is why we get there at 3:45 so that we can enter the park right at 4pm. This is especially important if your costumes are related to characters that won't be available during the party. You can read more about our experience from last year's party here...

We spent the entire day, from like 9am on, in costume at the Magic Kingdom the day we did MNSSHP. We got so many photos of the family in costume with characters. One fun one was Ursula meeting Ariel. Ariel was great, and the handler even "warned" her that Ursula was coming

Our trip is October 10-17. We will be celebrating our 9th wedding anniversary while we are there. So excited!

Congrats and Welcome to the Dis and the October 2012 group!

Hi all! Yesterday I booked a vacation from 10/20-27 for my DH and I. I can't even tell you how excited I am, but I'm sure you all know
This is our third trip and the first one in the fall, the other two were in January and February. It looks like we can begin booking our ADR's on 4/23 which is undoubtedly my favorite part of the planning process. If I don't change a reservation once a day I must not be near a computer happy to join all of you in our countdown to a visit with Mickey!!!

Still about 10 days away from making our ADR's and I'm debating if I should leave the spot open for BOG and move some other stuff around or just go with what we have planned and then try to make changes later if we hear that BOG is open.

Thats a tough one!! I think the only time I would be able to fit BOG in is our MNSSHP night... Hmmm!! I like that idea!! I really don't want to lose any of our signature meals and my nights are packed with those already!!

That's when we want to do it...MNSSHP night. Right now, we have a late lunch at Kona planned. But if BOG is open, we were going to drop our Yak & Yeti plans and then we'd shift Kona to the Y&Y spot (doesn't effect our AK plans because we know we're going another day and with our park hoppers, we're not tied to a park except for based on dining plans.)
