It seems that your ADR's are saved in the cart and nobody can take them unless you leave the computer for 20 min (inactive).

I went through and got most of mine and then checked out and then went back and got a few more. I forget how many can be held in the cart, quite a few though.

Good luck Squirrel this morning
I hope we do see you at LeCellier.

 

[Nicole786]

Just got finished very easy to do, but no Le Cellier on the 8th! I'm going to keep trying and call at 7 to see if I get any different results. This stinks that was going to be my birthday dinner But I got everything else at the right times!

 

[wdwmaw]

Anyone booking in Oct. get a 3 or 4pm ADR @ Wispering Canyon Cafe. I know Sept. ( last week in Sept.) people were getting them. Showing no availability just 1:45 or 5:05 and I don't know if they have gone back to normal hours or if it is just booked.

 

[Clupaczyk]

WDWMAW...I'm glad thing worked our for you in the end, for the most part anyways. Still sorry the +10 didn't work for you, that sucked.

10/3 arrival Garden Grill 4:55
10/4 Sci-Fi 11:25 (nothing else til 2pm?!)
10/5 CP 8:10am
CM 6:50
10/6 Coral Reef 11:45
PSB 5:20
10/7 no T.House avail...so no ADRs this day
10/8 1900PF 5:00 then off to MNSSHP
10/9 MK/DtD shopping...no ADRs
but I'm currently on the phone trying to book the Wonderland Tea Party for my 2 girls this day
10/10 go home

UGh....I can't stop thinking about/playing with what I got!!!! I can't just step away from the computer!!!! I thought about what someone said about being in the park on the 8th for dinner on my MNSSHP night, I was currently booked at 1900PF at 5. I know they let you in at 4....but we'll be at MK 2 other days, so being there before 7pm that night wasn't that important to me. Now I've changed my mind....I think!

I've switched 1900PF to Sun the 4th at 7:15 but we'll be in HS that day...so we'll have to make the trek north to MK area just for that. Then, on Th for the MNSSHP I booked Tony's at 5:40. I'm going to run it by my motherinlaw then I'll cancel the Thurs 1900PF.

Oh, and when I called on the phone I got my THouse 8am breakfast for AK on the 7th....woohoo!!!!

Now.....back away from the computer!!

Glad you got your TH @ 8am

I hear ya about the MNSHP night. DS wants us to eat at WCC before hand and I just like being in the park.Of course he is getting his way. I don't want a 5:05 so I had to take a 2:00, seems like you are at WCC forever when you eat there so I don't want to be coming into the park to close to 7am, it is so crowded then.

You know I keep wanting to change my stuff around but I think ( this is what I keep telling myself) it is better to eat where you are at and most convient and easy ( this is what I keep telling myself). I have never eaten at Tony's so I can't talk you into this one.If you had a window seat it would be cool to see everyone coming in and all the party stuff going up.

What were you going to eat on your DS day?

 

[Nicole786]

I managed to grab an 8:35 Le cellier ADR. I'm hoping i'll be able to walk up around 7:30 and maybe they have walk in availability but if not at least we have the ADR!

 

[PrincessBelle39]

PrincessBelle lets cordinate a time for me to cancel and you try to book. I would just give you the ADR, but that was one I had to put a CC on.

I'm 3 hrs behind Orlando time. I'm up most days by 7am and then the first daycare child arrives about 7:45am. Then I can get online again around 1-2:30 ish as the children nap. I'm free in the evenings from about 6pm to 11pm (not for the next few days though as I'm still booking in the am, I'm in bed by 9pm).

Squirrel, that would be great if we could tee something up for you to cancel and for me to try and book at the same time. We are 14hours ahead of Orlando. So when its 7am there, its 9pm hereand i'm guessing it must be 4am your time. Is that right? So I'm thinking that that 7am your time must be midnight here and 2:30pm your time must be 5:30pm Orlando time and 7:30am our time (the following day). Gee, I'm confused. Let me know if that sounds right and we can work something out. I'm usually up by about 6:30am. I really appreciate this. I'm so desparate to get MBYBQ. My kids really want this. Spoilt little things they are.

I'm on my iPod so I'll be abbreviating a lot..,

No place special on HS day, maybe SciFi. Instead of taking a break mid day ,as planned,then going back to HS we will now stay at HS until we're pooped (2,3:00??),go back for rest/swim then head to GF for 1900.

My DD(6) wanted Tonys(lady tramp fan), so I'm happy w my choice for mnsshp dinner...but will log on 90 days before oct 8 to try for an earlier time than 5:40, although that isn't terrible.

All in all, I'm happy w all my choices now. Yippie!!!

That sounds great and if your not interested in doing anything before the party then I think the timing sounds right.

Just checked online and they have a 5:05 for party of 4 (did not know your party size) @ Tony's

 

[squirrel]

PrincessBelle, I'm up again for good this time (I managed to get some more sleep). It's just after 7 am. I have a child arriving in under 45min.

I'm lucky the only thing my niece requested was to dine with Stitch and Lilo, and I already have that booked.

Wow,thanks forchecking... But we have a party of 6 ( both grandmas want to go). Plus I don't have all my rezzie info w me at work. 5:40 isn't awful as we'll be doing MK 2 other days and we're really just going that night for the party, but I'll check for an earlier time when I get home. Thanks!

 

[wdwmaw]

I'm checking for you right now. Tony's for party of 6

 

[wdwmaw]

There is a 2:45 and a 5:45 available. I would call because they have a table for 4 @ 5:05 and a table for 2 @ 5:05.

 

[squirrel]

I booked a few like that last year, my niece and I and my neighbours (4) and then when we checked in they sat us together.

I would book the two seperate tables most likely you will all sit together. If not maybe the grandparents would like to dine with the children? or on their own?

 

[bangzoom6877]

Last time I made ADRs they only way to do it was to call Disney Dining at 7AM or later. How does the online ADR system work? Could you book at any time of day as long as it is 90 days before your check-in date? Or does it begin at a certain time, like 7AM as the telephone system does? What is the earliest?

From your experience, is it better to make ADRs online or by phone? The only ADRs I would be nervous about getting would be CRT dinner (going with a party of 10) and Chef Mickey's breakfast (though only a party of 4 for that one).

Thanks in advance!

 

[Clupaczyk]

Thank you both... For checking for me and for your knowledgable input! I will definately call when I get home, 5:05 would be better than 5:40 for sure.
