What time do we ring for ADR's?

[sally s]

We will be down to our 180 days in 6 weeks and hoping to book sit down meals for our 14 day holiday. I know that i can only book ADR's for 10 days when i first ring but was wandering what time that would be from the UK? Also, as we have booked with TCD, i do not have a room number. What will they ask for as conformation of our stay?
Thanks for any advise.

WDW are 5 hours behind, and I think that the ADR phone line opens at 07:00, so you would call at 12:00.
Your booking number / name and hotel name is all they will need.

Thanks for your quick response. Just wandering if we have to pay a deposit. We are going to try the fantasmic package on our HS day but are skipping dinner shows.

We've never paid a deposit, hope you get all you want, please let us know

If you want CRT you have to pay up front, but that is the only one that I know.

Liberty square tavern - 11.30ish
50's prime time - 11.30ish
Ohana - evening

Do you think that i stand a chance to achieve these when reserving from Jan 25th for four people. Superbowl time unfortunately.

Shouldn't be a problem, I've always got what we wanted when booking 180 days in advance (even better when you can do 180+10). We're a party of 4 too-from what I've read parties of 5 or more struggle a bit more. Good luck

If you do 180 + 10, can you only book 1 day at a time? Since i'm ringing from the UK, i think that i can only convince hubby of the need for two phone calls due to the cost!

the 180+10 rule means you can make your adrs at the 180 day but you can make up to 10 days of adrs from the day you start your holiday as long as you are staying on a disney owned property. i am with talk talk and get free international calls, so didnt cost me anything to make. there is a number where can use, too get the calls for 1p a minute, dont know what it is, but maybe somebody else could help you with this.
