To my Sept. 2011 folks......

[Robin K]

We got all of the ADRs we wanted.
I think 2 were a bit earlier than we wanted but only by 10-15 minutes so why sweat that? We will be at WDW Sept 7-19!
We got:
Maya Grill-CSR
LTT
The Plaza
CP
Tusker House-lunch
Mama Melrose
Chef Mickeys-bunch
Raglan Road
Teppan Edo
V--new Italy place
Garden Grill
Cape May

Those are not in a certain order. I had to go over my list 3 times just to make sure I had them all...

Was online at 6am ET this morning for ours, no problems (expect I'm concerned my cc was charged for CRT not just used for guarantee - we'll see, CM on the dine number I called later assured me it was just a guarantee if I have the dining plan, which I do in conjunction with our DVC ressie) - got all my spots and basically my first choice of times.

Teppan Edo
CRT (8:05! on a 9am park open - can't wait for empty Main Street walk)
Liberty Tree Tavern
Captains Grille
LeCellier
Narcoosees

We're there from sept 8th for 15 nights on the deluxe dining plan so I had around 29 reservations to make. I got everything I wanted most at the exact times including the castle, le cellier, California grill. Since making my reservations intially on march 12th I've made loads of changes and there still seems tons of availability. Just yesterday I decided I would look for a fantasmic package for a date that's passed the 180 day mark and there was still availability at all three restaurants.
I've found it much easier than our sept 09 trip where adrs were only 90 days out and I love the online tool, it's just so easy to make and change reservations.

Seems to be lots of availability, thank goodness. I have a party of 10 and I'm able to book anything I want. I've even been searching things I don't want, and the only thing I can't find for a party of 10 is Garden Grill and CRT. But they both had plenty of availability for 5. We'll be there from the 16th-24th.

I'm sorry, I quoted the wrong post!

The empty walk down Main street is what I'm dreaming of too! I have lots of ressies to make, only one I'm concerned with times on is CRT breakfast!
The answers I have been getting are putting my mind at ease. I have to work until 0100 this weekend, and if I have to get up at 0700, I will, but would rather get sleep!

I have only made one so far, for Cinderella's Castle.

I'm a newbie- having a hard time figuring it all out. I'm expecting the Passporter in the mail soon. I'm hoping it will help.

I have a quick question- do I need to make ADRs for CS meals?

We will have only 3 TS meals since the dining plan calls for 2 TS credits for Cinderella.

Counter service never requires reservations.

 

[Iwant2BAprincess]

did ours last Monday-got everything right around the times we wanted (may have actually been available-I was a couple in before I realized they were giving 2 alternate times even if your requested was available)

Our list includes:

50's prime time
Biergarten
CP breakfast
Tonys
teppan edo
Le Cellier lunch
CP dinner

I wasn't sure about the time for the LC lunch so I went back to see if there were other options later last monday and there were still openings-never seen that before.

[SnipsNSnails]

I also made mine this morning and got what I wanted! It was easy!

 

[clc053103]

We made ours last week and had no problem getting what we wanted- it was much easier this year than it has been the past 3 septembers...I think because Disney has not released free dining promos for September yet.

I did notice a few places (like Narcoosee's) seems to only have 1 or 2 set time slots available to us- perhaps because we are a party of 7? We are flexible though!

 

[bluejasmine]

Poly IPO did mine march 8th and got us everything we wanted no problem..Very excited!

 

[Wendy31]

If you haven't already, come & add to your ADRs to our September list!

Got everything we wanted within a few minutes, except Flying Fish, which was a half hour difference from what we were looking for. Very happy, especially since we finally got a 5 pm Fantasmic pkg! I think the reason Sept ADRs are wide open is because free dining was offered for much of the year. Free dining was the big Sept promo for us DIS'ers in past years, this year its spread out over more months.

Interesting that I started following this thread today. I was wondering if I needed to book BBB when I did my ADRs. I book my ADRs on Monday. I will be on at 7am sharp.

 

[HunnyJar]

My husband made our ADR's on Friday for our 9/9-18 trip and we were able to get everything we wanted. Even all the times we were hoping for with the exception being Garden Grill. We were hoping for something around 6:00 pm and ended up with 7:45 pm. Not too bad! So very excited for this trip!

 

[amichaell]

Started mine today for our Sept. 18 check in. I've only reserved two thus far, though they are the main two we wanted (CRT and Ohana breakfast). Will finish up the rest tonight.
