Ok, so tomorrow I can start to make our ADR'S~ yay :banana:
Should I make them online or by calling by phone? Which do ya'll prefer?
Thanks in advance!
 
I think online ADR's are easier. You have to create a profile on disneyparks.com, but then all your reservation numbers are in one place AND you can print everything out instead of copying numbers down wrong/losing numbers written on scraps of paper, etc.

HTH! Have fun on your trip!
 
I've been to WDW many times but this trip is my first time getting to use the online ADR thing and I think it's great! No waiting forever on hold and no answering all those annoying questions when you first call. Is this your first trip to WDW? Have you been to WDW within the last two years? Is your party over 8? Crap, they should recognize my dang phone number when I call by now!lol
 

Oh, another reason it's great is that you can look at everything avalable at say DTD, or at MK, where ever, and it'll give you all and times and you just choose.
 
It also e-mails you a list of all your ADR numbers and times with all the fine print right to your inbox so you don't have to search for it later on the site.
 
Definitely online! This way you can play around with the times and find what will be best for you without having to talk with someone.
 
I also prefer online. I like the ability to see availability locations and times and then when I am done, I can print out the list of what I have booked.
 
90% online, but sometime you may have to call. For example for for CRT or Akershus you have to have a credit card to gurantee and Crt with no ddp you have to prepay. I always start online though, then usually have to end up calling them:confused3
 
Haven't been to Disney in over 10 years and just did my ADR's on Monday. Did them online in under 5 minutes including entering credit card, CRT, Akershus, and a few others. Today I called for the Fantasmic package (not online yet for Oct) and the total call took 12 minutes (first couldn't find the date open, had to start over with my reservation number, gave me a dinner time of 3:45, switched to a lunch time, gave CC info, etc). Online was so easy and, as others mentioned, convenient.
 
Online!

Yes you can book Fantasmic online. Just make sure you do it this way-select Dining Events, choose Fantasmic from the drop down and type in the date for Fantasmic (make sure you know it's a Fantamic date) like this 10/02/2011. Select the # of guests and time you want to eat. All 3 restaurants should show up with the times around the time you entered (unless one or more have no availablity).

Now this is very important-if you select a grey date from the calendar it will automatically go to tomorrows date. Also if you click on the change search options button it will also reset the date to tomorrow's date. This will be a problem if you don't realize that the date changed and accept the ADR. Make sure the date is correct before you finish booking the ADR, you don't want to have to pay the cancellation fee.
 
Online is easier and faster, plus if your exact time is not available they'll give you other options.
 
We have made them both ways , and online is by far the preferred:thumbsup2 way like someone else stated when you make them online you can see other times in referance to the one you requested....
 
I am more than likely going to book my ADRs online- I am on the East Coast- what time can you officially start making your ADRs? 6am or 7am for online?
