OFFICIAL NOVEMBER 2017 THREAD

[SaintsManiac]

Now you give me wondering. I'm going to login on Sunday morning & see if it will let me do the whole trip. I'm going away for the weekend. I hope the wifi works there.

We did a split stay in 2015 and were able to book it all on the same day. Good luck!!

Feeling good. As of yesterday, we got our last ADR that we wanted.
11/14--LTT for Dinner
11/15--Teppan Edo for Dinner
11/16--Crystal Palace for Lunch
11/17--Chef Art Smith's for Dinner
11/18--Prime Time 50s Diner for Dinner
11/19--BOG for Lunch and Ohana for Dinner
11/20--Akershus for Lunch

With that being said, we have a ton of back-up ADRs that we made that we are going to cancel eventually... One was for Cinderella's Royal Table. I know it's a tough ADR to get, but it really just doesn't fit in with our schedule. Alas...

What day do you have CRT to drop? I am desperately trying to get my kids into the castle on 11/19!

ok, well i may be very wrong on disneyaddicts it explains it one way and on mousesavers it explains it another way. I'm like you and I kind of hope it's not until the later date because we will be at the lake with no wifi so I was gonna to go to McD's or Starbucks super early. I'm sorry if I've created confusion, but if we can book by our resort only date, I wouldn't want to miss out of making my reservations.

I'm for sure going to check on Sunday. I'll be up anyway. I have a couple of hard to get ones like Bon Voyage & BOG but there's also some that I need specific times or it won't work. I'm slightly worried. I know it will be fine even if we don't get all the ones we want but it still doesn't take the ADR day stress away. I'll probably be a hot mess on fp day trying to work around my ADRs. Lol.

It's for 11/20 for lunch, but it is only a reservation for 2. :/

We were able to make all reservations for split stay at once in 2015 as well. Unfortunately last year that changed. We had two separate ADR days.

Well that stinks! I don't plan on ever doing a split stay again (too much hassle), but not good news for others

ok, chipandco says the same, a split stay is two separate stays (two separate vacations, etc) and you have to make reservations at the 180 day mark of the beginning of each stay. But it also says that due to a glitch that sometimes occurs, many people have reported being able to make all their reservations at the beginning of their first stay. I am so sorry if I caused a panic, it was not my intention.

Oh no. You didn't cause a panic at all.

Just read a trip report that had an o'hana dinner. Now I'm back to wanting to do O'hana. I think my kids will really like it. It's going back on the ADR list!

 

[chewysmom]

We love, love, love O'hana! My 16 yr old says it is a must do.

 

[MochaDrinker]

We're doing Ohana. I'm really looking forward to it.

 

[dnllmz]

We weren't going to do it this trip because we weren't sure how the kids would like it. Dh & I did it about 5 or so years ago and loved it. I forgot about all the different food they served and when I saw reviews I was like why wouldn't my kids like this? I think they'd love it. They both love shrimp, noodles, wings, and most chicken. I'm going to get an ADR and try to talk dh into it.

I'm so glad I logged on today! We have a "split" stay this year (both reservations at Pop, but two reservations for various reasons). I thought I would have to book on Sunday and Tuesday. I will definitely try it all on Sunday, then.

Okay I just read on a fb group that you can't do it online but a woman was able to call the reservation line and tell the CM about her split stay and make all of her reservations through her. So if it doesn't work online, you might want to give that a try. Do you have a lot of hard ones?

Worth a try!

Any guesses on when the discounts for the Nov time period will be released? Based on the current special offers I am thinking July

 

[Lurkerin]

Ya'll!!!!

Ours is Tuesday. Don't book all the good stuff!

Soon I hope! Either an AP or a general room discount would work for me. While I've made our trip budget at the current hotel costs, I'd be very happy to move some of that money into our food/souvenirs budget.
