which ADR to book first online

[tiggspring]

I have two in park character breakfasts CRT or Crystal palace, and Donalds safari as well as the popular Princess Dinning and Ohana I was wondering what order I should book with the new online system. Here is what I'm thinking

CRT breakfast if no then Lunch
Crystal palace breakfast
Donald's breakfast
Ohana Dinner
Princess epcot Dinner
Narcoossees dinner
whispering pines dinner
Chefs d France lunch
Morocco dinner
1900 park faire Breakfast 9or after
Scifi cafe early dinner 430

Any suggestions? Thanks

esp. if the character meals are your dining priorities! I found the online system to be very quick when I used it. It opens at 6 AM EST - I had everything loaded up for my first priority meal moments before 6, finished typing the reservation number, etc. just after 6, and I had all my meals plus some other ideas "just in case" reserved before 6:30 (just cancelled the ADRs we aren't planning to use, don't worry!) FYI if you've never used it before, the online system only allows 10 meals at a time to be saved up before you have to "process" them (enter credit card number, etc.)

Good luck!

I had many of the same choices and got all my first choices for times and dates with the exception of Ohana, which had to go with different date and earlier time, and, that was the first one I tried to book. Here's the order I booked mine:
Ohana dinner
Tusker House breakfast
Crystal Palace breakfast
Teppan Edo dinner
Sci Fi lunch
Chefs de France dinner
Whispering Canyon dinner

Of course, my situation may be different, since I had to try to get reservations on the dreaded Oct. 27th date and online was crashed. I ended up getting right through on the phones though at 7:00 a.m. Good luck!

WOW lucky you geting Oct 27!!! I think I would have freaked out! Guess I'll move Ohana up to 2nd then tusker house . We are staying at the Poly our first night and after a 16-20hr drive (last time 95 shut down for 3 hrs!) we will really want to stay put and did the luau last time. We have two days for Tuska house to work out, and two days for CRT. But ohana is a must. We really would like to use the breakfasts as a way to enter the parks early. Plus my son loves Donald.I'm hoping because we are going the weekend during and the week after Mothers day it is slow like it was last year. My friends went the week before and it was mobbed but it was very quiet that week last year. Good for ADR's

Thanks for the 10 meal limit info! Because we have some breakfasts this time I might have to do two rounds

In 2006 we went the week leading into Mother's Day weekend and followed the Unofficial Guides suggestions for which days to attend which parks. We practically walked on all the rides. It was great. Crowds weren't an issue at all. Good luck with your ADRs! Let us know how you make out.

Thats how it was last year too. Got my fingers crossed. Never thought we get such good deals two years in a row. Guess it was worth the 15 year gap between our last two trips!
