Online ADR'S ?

[aloha517]

Hi...? is..When you make you ADR'S online at 6 am sharp..do you do them in order of importance or in consecutive order starting w/day 1? Also for example..if im trying to get ADR for CRT at 8 am and its not available do I have to start all over again or do they give list of times that ARE available that I could just click on time i want? This is why i would love to speak to a human being but there is NO WAY I would wait until 7am lol!
P.S My 180 day isnt until June 9th ha ha...cant wait ..i think

Instead of asking for 8am, I ask for breakfast. That is an option, up over the listed times you can ask for a time period like breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Then, it will give you 2 or 3 options for your time period and you can pick the one you want.
I think it is easier to just start with day one of your trip and then jump the calendar up by one day at a time and go through your week, booking for each day. But if you are that concerned about getting your exact time, then sure, do that hard to get one first.
HTH!

Definitely do them in order of importance and/or those you know will be the hardest to get.

When I did mine, I did them in order of importance. For instance, Les Chefs always has tons of openings, but Le Cellier might not. HDDR assigns seating based upon your "order" in making the reservation, so that would be one that would have a higher priority in my mind. Or, if there was a particular time that you felt you MUST have at a particular restaurant, you might do those first.

For the most part, I really don't think you'll have ANY problems at 180 days out, even if you don't get up at 6am to do it. I made my ADRs at 180 days out and have tweaked them several times every week since. We'll be there in about 70-odd days and it's only been in the last week or two that I've been closed out of things that I would've liked to've changed over to. So, if you sit down with a chart of where you want to eat at what times and on what days, I think you'll get everything you want.

As for CRT, I did that one over the phone; however, the last time I looked, CRT was the only one that allowed you to search over something like 3 or 5 days.

Good luck to you! For me, part of the most fun of the entire planning process is making and tweaking ADRs.

Definitely go with the harder ones to get first.

If you want CRT, you put in the date and time, say for 6:00PM. The system then gives you the times available that are closest. If there is nothing from when the meal starts until it ends, there will be a message that says so.

If you do this the times that come up are after 9 am. Ask for 8 am and it'll give you the nearest time within 2 hours on either side of your selected time. Example for a 6 pm dinner it'll search from 4-8pm, not just 6 pm ONLY.
