ADRs- what time?!

Forgive a Disney newbie, I know this gets asked a lot but I'm confused.

What time does the 180 day ADR booking window open? I thought it was at 11am or 12pm but when I went on this morning to mess around on MDE it seemed bookings are open earlier than that? In the morning it was showing up until the 29th April (which I think is 180 days out) and now it's still showing the same- so I can book early in the morning?

ADR day is on Monday as far as I can work out (we arrive 4th May)

They open at 6 am Eastern standard time (GMT-4), which as the clocks went back in the UK last weekend is 10 am here.

Hi, Squish the whale,Be aware, at the moment there is a problem with the online booking calendar. My '180 day' was on Sunday but I could not book more than 1 day as all the other days (up to May 11th) were 'greyed out' so I phoned 0800 028 0778 then option 3 'dining help' and customer services made my reservations. I've just now done day 14 as the calendar is still not working. I have spoken with IT services and they say they are 'fixing' the problem. NOTE the phone service opens at 12 noon our time

I had the exact same problem, but found changing the language to 'English (United States)' somehow made everything work! Failing that, the MDE App works a treat

I believe that the US also changes its clocks this coming weekend, so 6am there is currently 10am here for online bookings BUT the OP is looking to book on Monday which may be back to 11am here.

I was advised this in another thread but am not 100% sure when the US does their clock thing

Hi, yes they asked me to try that but it didn't work, I also tried using the Firefox browser instead of my usual browser 'Safari' and that also didn't work

Thank you so much! Not sure about the US clocks so I will check at 10 and 11. I have heard about all the issues it is having- really hope it behaves itself for me. At least I have all of your suggestions to get round it if it doesn't!

I also had to do that!

Glad I saw someone had suggested it on here.

Just got one day left to do now.
Managed to get everything I was after so far.

The app didn’t work for me either though I’m afraid.
