When does online booking open up?? 12:01amEST or later

[Laurabearz]

When your booking window opens up at 105, 90, or 75 days out, at what time can you start booking?? 12:01 am or 7am??? And is that EST or CST???

I need to know if I will be staying up later or getting up early??


Soooooooooo have anyone tried booking at 12:01 EST on the booking day??

Thanks bunches!

I talked with disney reservations the other day about booking on line and they said that I could get on at 10:00 my time and book as of the 75 day period as long as I was paid in full. Hope this helps.

I would definately try at 12:01 a.m.

I got up at 7:00a.m. this morning and already the most wanted excursion was gone! (Had to wait until 9:00 a.m. to call Castaway Club Line to talk to a CM to find out that the excursion was gone. Got an error message when tried to book Wish List of excursions!)

Luckily still got the others and it's nice to have all the ressies in place and not worry about the "Ressie Run!"

I did check excursions still left, and not many were available!

This is what concerns me... With the online, you could get shut out... whereas before, if you jumped thru the hoops, you could get your ressies.... I dont mind (and was sort of looking forward too) getting to the pier early and doing the ressie rush! LOL

Well... at least I much rather stay up late, than get up early!

Oh, but like the CM told me, check back frequently!

People do change their minds and with excursions they can cancel two (2) days prior to sailing without penalty!

That's when I hope to score my excursion!

If not, was not meant to be!

I booked the CC Cabana Massage instead!LOL

Like they say, One Door Closes, Another One Opens!

So this is my concern... I am going on my first cruise in October and will only be able to book 75 days out. Will everything already be filled up then by those booking 90 and 105 days out or is Disney holding open some spots for those folks?

I also have that concern for our first cruise in September. I am kicking around the idea of doing the REAS package as a back up, so I can book 105 days out, then try again at 75 days and cancel the first, if I get what I want at 75 days...

I read that everyone is garrenteed 2 spots at flounders but that was before the new policy... I wonder if that holds true... Hmmm who can I call to find out???

All I really want for our September cruise is a massage for myself, and to be able to get our youngest in Flounders for a couple of hours here and there....

If you are , what excursions were already booked up. Because I can't get any reservations till May 22. And what about Palo's. Did you get any reservations? Thanks,
Pam

I am on the July 23rd West Coast cruise and I was able to book all of my reservations today (75 days out). FYI- I did try last night at 9:01pm PST, then again at 10:01 and 11:01. I could not do anything. Of course because I was so worried about trying to get my flounders and Palo's reservations together I woke up around 4:30am my time and checked my reservation. I was able to book my excursions, Palo's and Flounder's at the times I wanted. My only problem was I was trying to book my mom and sister's reservations and before I could do so I got locked out - at 5:00am (8:00am EST when the phone lines opened.) I was able to call and only waited about 10 min. to get my excursions, but could not book anything else. I finally got back on the web site abot 8:30 am my time and finished booking everything. All of the times that I wanted were all available. In fact, I booked 4 different days for Flounders and all four days still had availibility. Hopefully this will help!!
