What time can I make ADRs?

[Bokehman]

At what time on the 180 day mark can I make reservations? Midnight? When they open for the day? I would assume on-line would be 24 hours. Should I have three browsers open?

Haven't done a 'big' WDW in over 15 years and the last time we went reservations were not a big deal at all (just reserved that day).

Thanks in advance.

While the online system is technically available 24 hours a day, it "rolls over" to the next day at 6am EST, so this is when they "open" for the day. If you try to make 180 day reservations at 5:45am EST it will not likely work, but 6am should.

The best thing to do is to clear your cache on your browser before starting (you can Google for instructions). Multiple browser windows are not really needed any longer due to the changes in how you now search for reservations. While you used to have to drill down to find each restaurant and go in through there, there's now a system in place where you can actually search for all reservations based on your parameters.

I'd suggest taking a quick look and familiarizing yourself with the process before it's time to make the reservations themselves.

I had several browser windows open but it didn't work so well so I gave up and just used the same window. At 180 days I had no problem getting the times I wanted, or close, within 15-20 minutes.
