Online Reservations

[ras1121]

I read somewhere that you could start making online dining reservations at 6am 180 days out, as opposed to calling at 7am 180 days out. I can't find this information anymore, can anyone confirm this for me?

thanks!

Yes you can make adrs on the website (disney's) at 6am EST on the 180 day.

Cool! Thanks!

If you're past your 180 day mark, you can make them even earlier. I made three this weekend between 5 and 6 am.

Can I ask how you all did this? My 180+10 mark was last week, but everytime I chose a date it greyed out the "submit" button on the form. I ended up calling and getting everything I wanted (w00t!) but for future reference I'd love to know the trick here!

I'm interested in this as well. Does it work to register your trip with confirmation number and then on the 180 day just login before beginning to make reservations? Or are there additional steps?

I would like to use the phone and computer for making ADRs and want to have it all ironed out by my 180 day mark.

Thanks!

You can't make reservations before the 180 day mark of your first day.

If you're staying onsite you are supposed to be able to input your resort reservation number and be able to make reservations for up to 10 days of your trip at the same time - but not before 180 days from your first day.

And it doesn't always work. If it doesn't work online you may have to call WDW-DINE.

I understand the timing and know what date I can make ADRs. What I'm curious about is how to set up my account and log into the system so that it acknowledges that I'm staying onsite and allows me to book 180 days prior to my check in date. I don't want to be trying to figure that out at 5:00 am CST! Does anyone know how that works?

Thanks!

Here is the reservations calculator. You type in the first day of your trip and it will calculate back 180 days so you can know what day to make your ADRs.

You'll need to login to the disney site. There used to be a place to enter your confirmation number, but that might be automatic now. I'll double check and post back.

It's not possible at this time to make + 10 ADR's online. Today is my 180 day and I was able to make 1 ADR for May 28 but there is no where to input your onsite reservation number anymore. Maybe this will be fixed with the next update? I had to call at 7am to get the rest of the trip booked. But I was dialing at 7 and hanging up with everything I wanted including a Fantasmic package for June 2 at 7:16.

Same thing happened to me for May 28th. I could make reservations for dinner that night but nothing beyond that date. I called around 9am and made my other reservations.

Cool, I never saw the calculator before!
