Raise your hand if you will be on the phone Sunday for ADR's through March 22??

[mi*vida*loca]

I thought I knew what I was doing until I read this thread and then called Disney Dining...So am I understanding the following correctly?

Our vacation is March 21-28.

I have Chef Mickey's booked for March 21st.

I can get up at the crack of dawn Sunday to make 1 days (March 22) reservations.

I have to wait until (according to WDW Dining) December to make the remainder (March 23rd-28th) of the reservations.

Is this right?

I'm so confused and it wouldn't matter so much but I'm trying to plan a special trip for a 9 year old. I'm sure we all share the same frustrations.

Yeah. It sucks. I'm going the same dates!

My agent just checked an hour ago, and she said they told her they are only booking through Feb 22nd. Just an FYI.

 

[THE-ELLA'SMOM]

Thank you!! I really appreciate it.

Count us too...we'll be up bright and early trying to get thru. We're hoping for:
Kona
50's Prime Time
Boma (B)
Wave
Tusker House
Sci-Fi (L)
Coral Reef
Teppan edo
Plaza (L)

Here's to hoping we all get what we need!

You can make CRT and Chef Mickey's today. Those aren't affected by the system upgrade.

Thanks those have been done for a while I forgot to write that here.

But now I am confused on something else. The new system won't be working until Dec now?!? So that means the Nov 21st"ish" date is out the window?

They will begin booking up through March 22 on Sunday October 26. You have a few days yet, but then you should be good to go on Sunday morning.

Unfortunately it does. If I had a vacation that bridged the gap I'd suggest subscribing to the ADR thread that is stickied. Any future changes to the window will be posted there and you'd get a email notice.

Ah...ok, mine's in April...

We don't know yet. Keep an eye on the sticky thread at the top of the forum to find out the most current information about the system. The title will be updated as soon as we have a more current date.

I'll be up bright and early with the phone in one hand and a hot cup of coffee in the other making the rest of the ADRs for our February trip.
Here's what we hope to get:
California Grill
Tutto
Biergarten

count me in....but I will be up at 6 AM CST!! I will have to go outside to talk so I don't wake up the rest of the family!!!

The only ressie I really want is March 15 8 AM @ Tusker House!! That is all, the rest are very flexible!!! So, I will be sitting outside freezing trying to make ADR's!!! But it is worth it!!

 

[Tricia1972]

Pssst, you guys may want to check the sticky thread at the top of this forum regarding ADR's.

 

[Amy&Josh]

Tricia,

Thanks for the little hint about the ADR's.... I got lucky!!

I was able to get everything within 30 minutes of what I was wanting... only had to call twice, the first time was no help, but the second one was awesome!!

Although, I was wanting Tusker house for 7am, but the resturant does not open till 8am, so we got an 8am table... guess that one does not really count, since I was not sure when the place opened.

 

[mi*vida*loca]

I also just made mine!!! No pressure from me. I just asked her "Can I make a reservation for March 22?" She told me not until Sunday but she would see if the computer would let her and she said "Oh it's letting me! What restaurant would you like?"

I have Tusker House on 3/22 at 8 am and 1900 PF at 6 pm!

She also told me she would check the rest of the week because some restaurants are being able to be booked past 3/22. I checked for the BBB, Pirate Cruise, Ohana's, CP and PSB and the computer told her no. So I don't know how correct that info was or if she was referring to CRT and CM and got them confused.

 

[Tisha_PA]

I think they've been loading restaurants all day. It took me 2 calls to get all my ADR's but I was able to get them. The PSB wasn't loaded yet this afternoon but is loaded now.

 

[NaplesRI]

I LOVE these DIS boards! Thanks for letting us know we can start booking- I just called and got a great CM who booked the following for me:
03-19 Lunch - Plaza MK
03-20 Lunch 50s Prime Time
03-21 BFast- Donald's Safari Bfast
03-21 Dinner at 'Ohana
03-22 Lunch at Biergarten

I was able to get all the times we wanted (and we are a party of 6) so I am quite excited- and I didn't have to get up early to do it!
Now I just have to wait to book the last 2 days, so I can continue to plot and plan for them.
Wow- this ratches the excitement up another notch!

 

[gmflanigan]

Got everything I wanted also 2/23 - 2/28

 

[hopelea]

Now I can sleep in tomorrow. I don't have to worry about anything, just wait for my trip to arrive!!!

Tusker house 8 AM 3-15-09
Boma 5;15 PM 3-15
Park Fare 5:45 3-16
WCC 6:45 3-17
