what are the odds of Le Cellier lunch opening up 24 hours before?

[sazzifrazz]

I've been waiting for an ADR for this coming Saturday for awhile now. I scored one for Sunday, but Im going to be canceling it due to changed plans. What are the odds that one may open up last minute?

DS was able to get a walk up at 12:30 for lunch a month ago. Granted that is a very slow time but...You never know. Keep trying. I just got Be Our Guest for Dec 7. and I have been trying since they announced the opening dates!

I am leaving for WDW in less than a week and have scored a lunch (1:30pm) for LeCellier. I wouldn't say that it is out of the question, but you might have better luck for dinner-I realize that it is a lot more expensive at dinner and costs 2 DD points, but believe me-it is worth it! NUM NUM Best of luck! Tip: Try searching several times a day. For some reason, I have had the best luck in the am early and at around 9 or 10 at night.

I think the odds are good. I'm going to Disney 10/26 to 11/2 and I've been trying for weeks to get a Le Cellier lunch ADR for any day during our trip. I finally had success this past week for an ADR on 10/31 but before that I started testing the same day theory by looking for an ADR for that date first thing in the morning and most days there was something available. I think many people start to get ADR'd out after a number of days into their vacation, and because of the cancellation policy at Le Cellier, they are good about actually cancelling 24 hours in advance.

Good luck

you just never know, people change their park plans and adr's around so i would check.

I got one just a few weeks prior to our early Nov trip.

You have to check at least three or 4 times a day. I was also checking day of to see what would come up and saw a few Le Cellier and 'Ohanas. But there is no guarantee. I got the Le Cellier ADR by watching the Nov cancellation thread and 'Ohana purely by luck with random checks on WDW dining.

I'd say your odds are good. So many people seem to be stockpiling ADRs and drop them right before so they don't get hit with the fees. I know when we went last summer, a family of 4 got a walk up at Le Cellier right in front of us.

I looked today for LeCellier ressies justout of curiousity (have mine) and I actually found 2 or 3 for dinner at 9:00pm at night and one for 11:45 for lunch. Next time I looked the 11:45am was gone. They are definitely opening up, but be sure to be prepared with CC in hand and ready to book because they go fast. Sending pixie dust your way

I think your best shot at a last minute Le Cellier is more toward the 36-48 hour point - about the time people are cancelling ADR's they don't want. I've been looking for a December lunch for a while, and then just randomly checking the next couple days to see what comes up. I haven't had one come up for the next day, but I have had them come up frequently for the following day (and I'm usually looking around noon, not first thing in the morning).

I did manage to get a lunch ADR for Le Cellier for December, so whenever you are going, don't give up until the last minute. If all else fails, and you are in the area, try for a walk in when they first open (just be sure you have a backup plan in mind in case you don't get in).

I've been checking everyday for a dinner at Le Cellier on 11/12. Just snagged one today! So excited. Now we are all set!

Keep trying every few hours. Some will probably open up 24 hours ahead or the day before.
