You can try calling, but I know the wait time can be really bad. If you see 2 reservations for 4 around the same time maybe they can book it under 2 different names?
Oh wow, this kind of scares me, I am going to be a party of 7 and also have 60+6
We are going the end of January though, maybe less crowded? I was planning on dropping to 6 people for some reservations if that's all that comes up availableWhich tracker did you use (are we allowed to ask that on the message boards?) and did you do it for a single restaurant and how many days does it track for you?
I swear I think anymore there is no "less crowded" lol. Here's hoping you have better luck!Oh wow, this kind of scares me, I am going to be a party of 7 and also have 60+6
Touring Plans, it will track as many days as you want and 2 restaurants but I have the plan so I think that is included?
I liked the stakeout app for just 1 reservation. It sends a text alert. MD probably prioritizes paid and by the time I would click (even within a few seconds) the ADR would be gone. I had a paid subscription to Touring Plans and I wouldn’t even get an alert when MD was sending multiple alerts.
A few of ours were definitely hail mary reservations to just get SOMETHING before we got what we were aiming for. We'll probably drop a few as our plans solidify. i.e. 50s prime was a backup to the child's scifi request so we booked that before scifi opened.
Sci fi is very difficult to get. Definitely keep that esp. if it’s for lunch (we can’t ride thrill rides after a heavy meal). The food (mostly burgers) is ok (don’t get any dish with seafood or pasta-didn’t sit well with us) but the shakes (vegan available as well) are great. The atmosphere is unique in our opinion and beats anything else in the park.
Same thing happens with me. I use an iPad with saved (non Disney) credit card and use that instead. If IT won’t fix the problem (spent 6 hours with them years ago), then I’m not inclined to give them any more $$$
Log in with both. If one freezes use the other.
I used both the app and the website on my 60+ day. Both worked for me.
I know this can be a big problem for a lot of people - you have an ADR and then your LL conflicts, which is not your doing, it's Disney's. I thought I read somewhere that you should keep the ADR and then let CM at the restaurant help you with your LL time. I think if you are late for LL due to an ADR and you show your receipt at the ride, they would still let you ride. They don't want you skipping/cancelling ADRs so they will accommodate, I would think. If we have any conflicts that pop up on our next trip, that is what I plan to do.
But if you use the website on your computer, do you open tabs for every restaurant in advance or find the restaurants individually on MDE account(website not phone)?
I did this on Tuesday and it worked great. I had tabs up and ready for the restaurants I wanted, including CRT which was my most difficult one, and was able to get everything I wanted. However, as mentioned above, I did have to enter my credit card each time even though it was saved, which might have slowed things down. Later that day, I booked something on the app, and the process was much quicker and I didn't have to enter my card. But would it have worked as well when I was doing multiple reservations right when my time opened? I don't know.
I had a tab for every restaurant where I had pre-selected the time I wanted to book. I did that the night before, then got on at 5am CST and went to each tab to reserve each one.
I opened tabs for a few restaurants that would be hard to get, but not for all of them. Also, I had to input my credit card on the website, but not the App (where it used the saved credit card). So it took longer to complete the reservation on the website.
Perfect. So if I have the tabs open on my desktop with the restaurants I want, it will work ? I can save my credit card on Google account to expedite things. Thanks
Last question. When you were using the app, would you you search for the restaurant individually then pick the date and party?
I didn’t do that, I just chose the day, time and party. Using the app. I got San Angel Inn, Oga’s Cantina, Nine Dragons, and The Plaza. Using the website, I got Candlelight Processional dining package at the Rose and Crown and a lunch at The Hollywood Brown Derby. Couldn’t get California Grill or Topolino’s at 60+3. I did more on the app because it was quicker and I wasn’t booking “headliners”.
