OFFICIAL NOVEMBER 2017 THREAD

[DiaryofaDisneyKid]

It was Ohana dinner on day 5 for 11 people. Choices were 6:45 or 8:45.

Thank-you! I finally got the schedule figured out hopefully! There is no FD during the beginning of our trip so hopefully that will make ADR's easier.

We did dinner at CRT a few years ago, with 3 boys it's hard to convince everyone to eat with princesses, and we really enjoyed it. The food wasn't earth shattering, but wasn't horrible. Our service though was phenomenal and eating in the castle was this mom as dream come true! Plus, our oldest had a very magical moment singing "A whole New World" with Jasmine. It's a moment neither of us will forget! So the experience for me was worth it!

Mommy needs to meet princesses too! We went to CRT about 3 or 4 years ago and my DD wants a do over because her brother broke her magic wand the same night she got it. That's so sweet your oldest son sang with Jasmine! You can tell his future wife all about it.

Yes May 18th will be your ADR date, that's mine as well. Southwest also opens up that day as well. And now that I just answered that I realized I haven't started my plans yet, yikes. Only 10 days, better get planning.

Oh and to answer your question you can book online at 6 am est and by phone at 7 am est.

We didn't upgrade to DDP but kept QS so we're only making one or 2 reservations so crossing fingers we'll have no problem with a party of 9!

Yes, moms do! It was funny because the princesses really interacted a lot with him. (He was about 13 at the time.) They showered a lot of attention on him and he is normally a ham, but was a little reserved. Jasmine came back to chat with him and I let slip he was Aladdin in a local youth theater production recently. She wanted him to sing to her and he was shy so she just started singing so they sang together. it was awesome! And you can bet his future wife will know all about that! And the time he went to 1900 Park Fare with a shirt that said I <3 Anastasia! LOL!

I know what you mean I'm just as stressed about getting our flights booked on the 18th.

I'm having ZERO luck with Bon Voyage Breakfast. Nothing 11/7-11/9 so far. Bummed

Hello all, joining the party!

We are a party of 9, 5 adults, 3 grandsons (6,8,9) and my soon to be new granddaughter, in 2 rooms at CSR. 11/11-11/14 either at Universal or RO at CSR then 11/14-11/18 with Free DDP upgraded to TS. Because I have the RO booked already, my ADR window opens Monday.
My plans:

AK - Tusker House breakfast
MK - LTT (backup is WCC)
DHS - Fantasmic pkg @ MM (backup is 50's Prime Time)

We'll have one more at DS that I will probably book through Open Table to avoid the no show fee. Or maybe Ohana on our last day for breakfast depending on flight times.

I need SWA to release flights!!!!

I'm so worried about that one. That's the only reason I am getting up at 5am.

Oh no! I happened to see an 8:05 for 2 on the 7th, but it won't let me search past that date as it's my check-out date and it doesn't look like there's anything else that day for a larger party. Any chance you can move to a later date or is it a short trip?

I haven't checked in in a while! We'll be staying at AOA from Oct. 29 to Nov. 4. Celebrating older son's 13th birthday while we're there, and going to our first MNSSHP on Halloween itself! My parents will be staying the same times at Pop. It's their first Disney trip with their grandkids and their first MNSSHP too.

We have ADRs at Crystal Palace, Rose & Crown, Garden Grill breakfast, Ohana, Yak & Yeti, Be Our Guest breakfast, and Chef Mickey (for the birthday). Couldn't score a BOG dinner, but going to keep trying. Also hoping to do some special events, like the Parisian Breakfast for my mom and I and maybe a Halloween or Star dessert party.

 

[10MoreMinutes]

Count me in for November! We'll be there November 10-13 in two standard rooms at Pop Century. Our party is me (30 by then), my SIL (24), friend of SIL (22), my best friend (30), and best friend's husband (35). It's just a quick long-weekend trip, since we only live 3.5 hours north of WDW. It'll be SIL's third trip, her friend's second trip, my best friend's second trip, and her husband's first trip!

Our ADR day is Sunday, and I'm shooting for Raglan Road for the 10th, Spice Road Table and Rose&Crown for the 11th (we'll be splitting into two parties for dinner), BOG for the 12th, and Yak&Yeti for the 13th.

We're doing MK on a party day, but we're not attending the party. Instead, we're going to hop on the monorail and go explore the monorail resorts.

Since we're traveling with our ILs this trip we're planning one ADULT night!! The ILs are going to keep the kids (at the hotel or maybe go to DS) and DH and I are going to go back out alone!! We're thinking Epcot. What should we do for dinner? We don't want to spend $$$$$ but want to have a nice adults only night and will likely stay until close (EMH) that night!

 

[imatex]

Not crazy! I like to know my ADRs about a week before I can book them ha ha ha plus...planning is fun!

My family has multiple planning sessions before we can make ADRs and FPs. Then on that day there are three of us working on different days from our laptops while we are all sitting in my living room. It is crazy fun!!

We did the Parisian breakfast last year and it was lovely. It was a group of 5 of us and we'd just run the W&D 10K. I think we might have liked it more had we not had to run the 1/2 marathon the next day. LOL! I would do it again this year, but am running the challenge again this year. I will likely find myself in this predicament for a while. But it was a good time, good food, great service and reasonably priced I thought. Especially with the mimosas so free flowing!

I love Trattoria al Forno on the Boardwalk. Rose and Crown? Chefs de France?

 

[notrub98]

Anyone else not able to book CRT online? The site has times available but comes up with Stitch every time. I called Disney and they were able to book it by phone. Just FYI if you have trouble!

Ooh I haven't looked at the BW restaurants menu. With what I have looked at the Mac and cheese at Chefs is what sounds the best!

Chefs de France is a good place, my DH and I do this as our anniversary dinner.
