We will be arriving at MCO at 10:25am and will be using ME to BWV. I was planning on maybe making an ADR at the Hollywood & Vine for lunch and spending some time at MGM on our day of arrival. What time should I try to make the ADR for to make sure we get there in time?

I was thinking that it would take us at least 90 minutes to get from MCO to BWV (assuming no plane delays) so we should get there around 12pm. Another 30 minutes to check-in (12:30p), another 30 minutes to get from BWV to MGM (1pm), so I was thinking to schedule the ADR for around 1:15-1:30pm (if available).

I figure if we get there earlier, we can always check-in at the restaurant earlier and hope they can seat us earlier. I know we will be starving after getting off the plane.

What you all think? Is the timing reasonable? Or should we just skip the sit-down and just grab Quick Service instead whenever we get in? Just trying to figure out our ADRs for the DDP.

Thanks.
 
The only problem I see is if your flight or ME is delayed. Other than that, it should work. Personaly though, I would make my ADR for the evening meal, and use the quick service meal for lunch, but this is JMO.

You're absolutely correct! EXCEPT that the Playhouse Disney character meal at H&V is only for breakfast and lunch NOT dinner.

I think I will probably stick with grabbing Quick Service instead of dealing with a ADR and maybe try for the H&V for another day.

Thanks though! I think I just needed to post out my delimma before I could make a decision! Lol! :teeth:
