Reservation finders

[zomama]

Do they actually work? We aren’t doing very many TS but the 3 we really want are going to be impossible for us since we are staying off property - homecomin’, topilino’s and sci fi. Any tips?

Touring Plans reservation finder works for me 99% of the time. Homecomin, you can actually walk up and get a table....you'll just be put on waiting list....I actually used this tool to get Topolinos and Sci Fi in August.

TP one works for me a good bit. I recommend. Just be prepared for the 2am alerts, lol.

Also, we use Open Table to book some places, like at DS.

I have been using Touring Plans and ************* ever since my ADR window opened on 9/15 and had one hit -- which was 50s Prime but it was a 7 PM reservation so too late in the day for us. Still hoping but I have heard most people have success. Might be the week of your trip so keep that in mind. I am also paying MouseWatch as well - something like $50. lol Even planning racks up the cost for Disney.

Touring Plans definitely works. We've gotten a lot of reservations by using it.

TP definitely works - BUT...you have to be flexible. We put in a search for Topolinos breakfast on our departure day. Reservations did open up, but mostly for very late breakfast (10:30-11a). We ended up sticking with our Whispering Canyon reservation @ 9a instead.

I used a reservation finder for my trip coming up the first week in Nov. I was able to get an Ohana reservation that way for our first night staying at Poly.

I'm still trying for a Topolinos reservation. I have gotten a few alerts but I'm not fast enough.

Set up an audible alert on your cell phone and choose text over email so that when an ADR is available you’ll hear it.

Homecomin you should be good walking up for a table, especially if you go at a more off time. We've never waited more than 20 minutes if we go between 2pm and 5ish.

We've used Touring Plans reservation finder many times and have had great luck getting Topolino's for breakfast and dinner, Beaches & Cream, Be Our Guest among others. Just make sure you click the link ASAP! I've also had luck checking for reservations the week of or day or two before we'd like to eat somewhere because people are cancelling reservations so they don't get charged. I've also seen Topolino's and SciFi show up on the walk up waitlists on the app so keep an eye on those on the day-of if you still weren't able to snag an ADR.

I have usually had luck with reservation finder. Now the reservation may be gone by the time I check, but at least it does notify me that one was available.
Still hoping for Space in 2 weeks.
Also use the one that is not allowed to be typed and had some success.

We use a reservation finder each trip and each trip we're able to book CRT with it - this just occurred this week too (booked CRT for a trip in a few weeks)
