All dining reservations booked!

Got up at 4:45 CST to be ready to book online at 6am EST. WELL... The online system wouldn't let me book anything past 180 days (so none of my +10 days would book). Kept getting an "Oops there's been a blip in our system message".
Sooo, I stayed up and was on the phone at 7EST.
Got reservations for all the places we wanted, although CM only showed BOG at 4:25 pm on the day I wanted. I took it, but preferred later.
After I got off phone, I went back online & could still see ressies for BOG at 5:10 & 7:20 that day.
Wonder why CM didn't show those times?
Now... Should I call back to chg time? Lol
I'm tired & wanna go back to sleep!

Thanks! I am super excited to make our dining ressies tomorrow morning! Have several I am hoping to get! Top of the list are Be Our Guest & Cinderella's Royal Table. . Then, Chef Mickey's, O'hana, Tusker House, Coral Reef, Boma, & Maya Grill. Whew!! Fingers crossed! Our dates are Nov 20-29. Got Mickey mail today with a cool magnet with the dates we can make dining, Fast Pass, etc printed for easy reference.

I checked some of the bigger restaurants around 7am, and I think there are plenty of times available. Even BOG. I personally think the one thing us Thanksgiving week and week after travelers have in our favor is there's no free dining... Less people fighting for ADR's. So far still a good selection of times available. Good luck to everyone!!!

Lol apparently, I am a glutton for punishment. I have now been back on hold for 26 minutes- planning to try & change that time for BOG! I just checked online and even more times popped up as avail- 6:25, 6:45, 7:10. Sure wish it would just let me book online & I'd finally go back to sleep! Lok

Totally worth it if you get what you want! Good luck!!

Thanks! Was successful changing to a 6:25 time for BOG!!

Now, hopeful to make a time change on CRT. But am happy with what have if nothing becomes avail!

We just finalized our reservation today. We are going Nov 1-7. Our son's 10th birthday is Nov 6th. I'm excited, the kids have never been, and I haven't been since my freshman year in high school.

 

[Ceryssa]

We will be there Nov 1-9th! So excited for our first trip!

 

[jemlover]

DH and I will be there Nov 10 through Nov 17 at the Wilderness Lodge with Free Dining! We will be going to Epcot on the 10th for the last day of Food & Wine Festival and already have tickets for MVMCP on the 13th. Had to change our resort reservations three times but we are finally living our dream of returning to the Wilderness Lodge.

Love the East Coast! Going on a road trip next year (I'm in Ontario).

I've never been on TOT and don't think I ever will. Hahahaha. I'd totally throw up .

O'hana breakfast is fun. I likes the juice and the soft raisin-y bread. Stitch was awesome but Pluto was a little grumpy.

Love Ohana breakfast! (both for the food and experience) Went twice in 3 days last year! Was thinking repeat visits again this year!!!

YAY! Nov 2014 here we come!!! Got all dining booked with CRT, BOG and OHANA!

 

[LimeCordial]

Won't lie. Totally jealous at everyone getting BOG. I've tried since 180+10 and no dice.

Enjoy it

We really liked lunch but my eldest kiddo's one request is to meet Beast. I'll keep trying.....

Hopefully you get lucky soon. I managed to get a spot one week before my Princess half trip earlier this year. I was happy and shocked

 

[arffresq]

We are going November 16th - 25th. This will be our first time during the Hoiliday's. Will be my son's first trip. He will be 17 months.

 

[briveigh]

We are going to O'Hana for breakfast on the 6th. I thought it would be a great kickoff for my son's 10th bday.

Good to know. Will keep trying. Thanks

Got up yesterday morning at 4:30 am my time (central) to try and snag my dining.(my computer takes a while to warm up) I logged on My Disney Experience at 4:50 or so and tried it, but it would not let me do anything, but at exactly 5:00 I was in! I got BOG, Ohana, Le Cellier, Sci-Fi, Hollywood and Vine, Askerhus, Biergarten, Garden Grill, Chef Mickey's, Coral Reef, and Whispering Canyon all at decent times! That is a feat for a party of 10. So happy!
