Online booking question -1st time trying online

[Mouseturtle]

Effective the 27th the booking window increases to 180 days out. So, do I have to book EACH day of my vacation on the 180th day out? For example my first vacation day is May 6th - so 180 days out would be Nov 7th - does that mean each day after that I can book the next vacation's days meals (Nov 8th for May 7th, etc.)?

Is it the same booking engine that you get when you call? Anyone know if there is limited availability online or do you get the same availability as when you call?

I think I will prefer booking online - when I did my ADRs this year it took FORever with a CM and I always seemed to get conflicting answers.

Can you also book special dinners like Spirit of Aloha show online?

The 180 will be 180+10 for onsite guests, just like it is now for 90+10. I don't see that changing - that's how it was before when bookings were 180 days and Disney sells that +10 as a perk for staying on-site.

So if you're on-site, you can do 10 days in one call.

If you're off-site, you will have to call multiple times.

I don't know the answers to your other questions - online booking worked very smoothly for me this morning. I know the Fantasmic packages are not online, but I'm not sure about the dinner shows. You can go in and look at any time so you will know whether you have to call for those or not.

Thanks so much! I can't wait to start booking. I was so lucky in May this year and got everything I wanted only one month out (even Chef Mickeys!) so I'm really looking forward to doing this online asap.
