Planning ADR's How Much Time In Between

[Irish Twins]

How much time do you allow in between each meal? I am thinking 4 or 5 hours? Also would you say it is fair to say that each meal (TS ) is about 1 1/2 hrs long?

thanks for your input

That was my biggest problem too, trying to space out the reservations. I was trying to stick with 8:00am, 2:00pm and 8:00pm. With a 4 year old...not sure the late dinner is a good idea if she doesnt nap. If I move that back, I will have to move the lunch back and there really is no room to move the breakfast back.

So...I scrapped the whole thing and decided most days we would do a later breakfast (9:30am, probably get out at 10:30 - 11:00) and early 2 credit nice dinner (6:00pm). We get 2 snacks per day too to hold us over if necessary. I do have 2 days we are doing the 8/2/8 deal.

We're on the deluxe so also had to think about spacing meals. We've mostly gone for splitting a CS or grabbing a snack for breakfast (7:30ish), early lunch, (between 11:30 & 12), then dinner around 7:30pm. Assuming lunch takes no more than an hour and a half, we should have at least 6 hours between lunch and dinner.

When we do 2 TS meals in one day we do a very early breakfast and dinner around 5-6

Buffets we are usually in and out 30-45 minutes. Regular TS could be 1-1.5 hours

We are long time users of Deluxe pkgs, long before the current DDP. (Did them for all the golfing and fishing excursions.) I strongly suggest you NOT try to eat 3 meals a day, even if one is a counter service. You will do nothing but sit in restaurants or be waiting to be seated at one.

The best way to utilize this plan is to take advantage of the signature dinners. 2 sit down places with the 2 snacks a day will be more than enough food, as well as all the time you will want to allot for dining.
