Hi, cant seem to find answer to this.

Normally i stay onsite and book my ADRs 180 days in advance as normal.

This year im offsite for the first time in ages - last time i was offsite i didnt book ADRs, went at a quiet time and it was before DDP so managed to get same day walk ups.

This year there are 10 of us going & ADRs will be required. Whats the procedure as ive read on here a couple of things that have confused my wee noggin !!

Ok - 180 days as normal for ADRs which i can make starting 5th May. Now if i want to make 10 for example can i make all 10 on that day - the 5th ? Like i did when staying on site or do i need to phone every time i hit 180 days to the day i want to eat ? Meaning i would need to call WDW every day for almost 2 weeks to book an ADR ?

Going to sit down later and work out a rough intinery (as hours not released yet) so i can see where i might want to eat. Then im gonna have to check the hours as soon as they become available on the 1st May before i tweak my initnery to make my ADRs.

Any help appreciated. Thanks

Hi carol,you will need to phone everyday if not staying onsite or wait till you countdown goes down to 166 then you will be able to make all 2 weeks worth.
Dont forget to use the 1p a minute number 0844-861-8686 then add disney dinning 001-407-939-3463

Technically you'll need to phone every day, as you can only book a max 180 days out (if they apply the rules fully). Or leave it an extra fortnight, but then run the risk of not getting some of the earlier ones (although you can do the whole period in one phone call).

Quick replies - Fantastic !!

I will make my list and call on the May 5th & ask if the CM will take my 2 weeks worth, if not then a phone call every day it has to be.

Hey at least i get to hear that accent and 'Have a Good Day' 14 times instead of once lol :d:

Thanks for the 1p number, i didnt know about that. I take it call the 0844 number and then you get an automated service where you dial in the WDW number ?? Is there a connection fee then 1p a minute ?

If you have a lot of free minutes on your mobile, you can use those by dialling 07744 200006 (YourCall) and then your international number as 00 1 407 xxx xxxx. No cost at all apart from using up your contract minutes.

[Edit: their website now says the contact number is 07755 500 500, but I'm still using the old one and that works fine)
