This seems unusal--but I got every single ADR for Nov 6-13 trip

[knieves711]

Mine opened today and i was able to get everything i wanted. Incluging BOG, Cinderella, and Crystal Palace. My suggestion is to be online by 6am EST. I noticed today the later it got, the more problems there were with the site.. But if you have problems with the site not finding anythin i would suggest going in under your itinerary page and search that way. I had to do that a few times. But managed to get all the ones i wanted.

Thanks for that tip! I'm glad you got everything you wanted! I'll have my alarm set early enough that I can be ready to go right at 6 (3am my time).

I was so incredibly frustrated today booking ours. I got up at 4 (6 am their time) to try to book. After booking BOG it would not let me book anything else. I tried everything for an hour and the website would just not let me.
I called right at phone opening waited on hold for 2 hours. Finally got through after she got all my info they dropped the call. The least they could do if that happens is call you back but no.
I still had an hour and a half before I needed to leave my house so waited on the phone for another hour. Finally got through got most of what I want except Rainforest Cafe and Planet Hollywood. The CM said they haven't opened up the reservations for those places yet.

Did you try contacting the restaurants directly instead of through Disney? Some people have had success doing that!

Oh no! I'm sorry it didn't go well for you. At least you got most of your ADRs though! That's great you got BOG! That's one dinner I'm definitely wanting!!

Congrats on getting all your ADRs... I logged in exactly at 5am this morning for my 180 start - we are staying 11/9-11/15, and at 5am the entire week had no availablity for BOG at all- neither lunch or dinner for any day ... and also no availability for Victoria and Alberts (regular dining or Victoria Room) for the entire length of our stay... on the upside we did get 8am at Tusker House and California Grill during Wishes! And we did get our first choice for the Keys to the Kingdom tour (havent even been able to get the tour the last 2 trips!)

Wow I am going Jersey week and had no trouble getting my ADrs. sorry to hear others are having issues.

Has anyone been able to get beaches and cream? I was looking at November 8th and 11th for lunch, logged in first thing yesterday and no availability (party of 2) called and the woman said she had no availability those days from opening to close. This seems suspicious...

I got a late lunch (4:50 pm) for a party of 2 at Beaches & Cream on the 7th for our pre-half marathon "dinner". It's a busy weekend at the Epcot resorts, and B&C is tiny, capacity-wise.

I finally got my lunch for the 8th. I figured better to have a celebratory lunch than carrying a huge sundae around in my stomach for the whole race! Now I just need to book my massage for that morning...

See, I still don't get it. It is so random. I went in again to see about switching some things around, and everything (once again) available. BOG even. Dropping Le Cellier for Yachtsman, no problem. We are there for the marathon too and I was expecting it to be jammed, but I'm still able to see options for each choice. I'm just goofing around now to see what comes up, and it still shows availability. I am using the MDE on my desktop, via the WDW website.

I keep reading how frustrating folks are and how the system isn't working, they aren't able to get what they want. Why is it so inconsistent? I think this goes beyond me just having dumb beginners luck

Congratulations on getting all of your ADRs. I was able to get all of mine the morning of my 180 +10 (although I've changed them around several times since) which was surprising since it was the day of the FD roll out.

Congrats!! I got all of mine, too! I'm constantly rechecking as I'd like to tweak a couple of the times but I at least got every restaurant I was wanting! Woohoo!

I've been tweaking mine as new things become available (The Boathouse) or as plans change (we added MNSSHP). I was excited to get the Wishes Dessert Party and CRT that morning though. I was on cloud 9 for the entire day.

Wishes!! You're so lucky. I really want to go to that but there aren't any days listed for November yet online. I'm stalking it though so hopefully they release it soon!!

Fingers crossed for you.
