Great!

Lets hope they institute a credit card requirement to hold the reservation with penalty for no-shows while they are at it.

I have my doubts, but that's a great point... Its gonna get a lot harder to get a reservation.

That's my fear. Will I ever be able to get ADR's except on day 90+10. Seems there would have to be some type of control. But like others have said......

Nope. Except on the standard ones (CG, CRT, Akershus.) Good luck getting ADR's everyone!

Thanks for the tip!

Any bet some software developers will develop programs to get reservations at the first possible minute? They've already got them for bidding at the last possible second on eBay!

Part of the new system prevents multiple reservations by the same party!

We all know people will find a way around it, but at least Disney is aware of the situation!

Are you referring to double-bookings within the same timeframe? If so, do you know (or can you say... yet) what is the buffer zone of time around one reservation in which you can make another?

Will be VERY interesting to see how this all works out.....

All I know is what I have heard from people who have trained on the new system. They came back from training saying that basically you wont be able to book say a dinner at EPCOT and at a resort on the same evening.

Well that's good to hear. I can live with that.

Do you know if this is something that is definitely going to be opening up to the general public, or just TAs? Also, will families be able to split up and make 2 dining reservations for the same evening (for instance, we're a family of 5 but sometimes will eat with a reservation for 2 at one location and a reservation for 3 at another).
This is very interesting.........

 

[Uncleromulus]

That question is one of many that guarantee the system will have kinks that will take a very long time to work out.

It probably won't prevent anybody from making multiple reservations under different party names.

 

[ROEDISNEY]

I agree with jlewisinsyr 110 % . I think it would stop alot of over booking and would open ress for other people. It will make people make up there minds an not hog up ress. Just my opinion. Cant wait to ck this out.

See that was one of the first questions that was asked in class when I trained on it and they said- no there was no way at this time to prevent people from booking multiple reservations at the same time.
