Booking Disney Reservations

pinseekers · 11 Jun 21, 10:23 AM

Hello,

Booked for late august and my 60 day window for booking meals is getting closer. i am staying offsite which means I may struggle to get them if people can book their full trip whilst i am day to day.

Is it 545am i need to go on and book? have been logging on around 8 to check the last couple days and availability is very low for popular places. any feedback appreciated.

It's been a while since I booked ADRs (2019), but unless it's changed, then the Disney system opens at 7am, which is 12pm UK time. I've never been up early hours to book ADRs. If it is different now, I'm sure someone in the know will be able to tell you

11am U.K. time. Good luck - it�s pretty bleak when you take a look!

I've just done mine. They open at 11am UK time at the moment.

I found the system to be a bit slow for 5-10 minutes after it opens so definitely go for your favourite ones first!

Thank you everyone. I had initially the 7am time but read 545 which i found very odd as it did not fit in with orlando time.

i will go on a few times at 11 and have a practice before the real date.

I did ours last week. Yes it�s 11am online or 12 noon if you ring them. It opened up dead on 11am but I�ve heard of others where it�s opened a few minutes earlier.

Definitely go for your most wanted first.

It�s worth a practice run for sure.

Make sure your credit card details and phone number are entered correctly as this is usually where there�s a sticking point if there�s going to be one.

Good luck, let�s hope we get to go?! 🤞🏼

Ah, I knew I got 12pm from somewhere! Completely forgot about online opening an hour earlier. Been out of the loop too long!

Did you find availability was ok? I have occasionally looked at what is available at 60 days and the options seem very limited.

Because we are on-site the availability did increase through the week. I wondered if they would still do the +10 but they only now do the duration of the on-site stay. I think it�s probably to stop that loophole where people were booking one night and getting 10 days booking advantage.

I only booked 4 of the harder to get adrs as we probably won�t even get there but didn�t see any harm.

They did still have adrs for the likes of chef art Smith at 60 days but at less attractive times.

Lol, I was rusty too and had to ask if anyone remembered the process. I soon got back into the swing of it though! 😁
