Your party may be seated at separate tables?

[familydisney]

When booking online through the Disney site, They told me that at Turf Club, there is a chance our party will be seated separately... I tried several times and it always showed that message. We are a party of 5, not 15, so is it just that restaurant? I definitely don't want to get split up, so I didn't take the ressie yet until I heard from the experts. Have you ever had a party of 5 split up? Is that really something that should make me re-consider this restaurant?

Here's my experience:
Odds are, it just means that all the typical 6-tops (or bigger) have been assigned already, so the ADR is booking multiple tables for your party. (This is what a CM told me when I called in ADRs)

Our first trip to WDW resulted in a party of 8, and every rezzie we had stated that we may be seated separately. In most cases, we had two tables pushed together - but in a couple of cases, we were seated at 2 4-top tables nearby.

So it is possible that you may be split up (you won't be far) ... but the CMs will do everything they can to keep a party together.

For a party of your size, I would not worry to much. It's pretty much standard language - I've gotten that message when making ADR's for parties of 3 and 4. I've also read on other posts where people got it when making ADR's for parties of 2.

I can vouch for this part... heck, I even saw it display on a reservation for 1! (Granted, that was when the system was in flux, but still... that surely would have been painful, not to mention messy!)

Unless you're a large group, it's just a typical standard disclaimer thing. Nothing to worry about .

I agree with this post. We are a party of three and we always get that message. We've never been seated at different tables.

We were a family of 10 this past fall and although we were told the same thing we were always put together.

I think it's a disclaimer that they put on all ADRs. I've gotten it on ADRs for one, too.
