I think that sounds brilliant just sitting watching him trying to eat while chip and dale are annoying him I’d be wetting myself laughing 😂

No need to sneak in, just go as if it's an 8am reservation. Nobody will bat an eyelid.

5pm (sometimes a few minutes after) is the latest Fantasmic reservation as it's used to fill less popular slots

It interesting how the popularity changes- wasn't long ago getting CRT was a nightmare- but seems easier now- I think the newer offerings are the hot tickets.

I agree the 7 seemed to be the issue. 4 and even 6 seemed a lot easier.
I had trouble with bookings for five for last year. Seems they like even numbers better!

Can’t remember seeing that many larger tables at Bon Voyage.

I think it is the party size that is the issue, but most people will not have any problem getting those selections at 180 days.

Your BOG at 8:20am is fine, we have had 8:20 -8:30 BOG ADRs and it is plenty of time to get finished and get in the queue for Fantasyland rides. You can turn up a little bit early too.

Hi 7 makes all booking harder, have you considered splitting 3 -- 4

Don’t know if it helps anyone but I booked my ADRs for party of 7 a couple of weeks ago for Easter time which I expect will be quite busy and found:

Hard to get (as in weren’t there even an hour after I booked)
BOG for 8am
Garden Grill for any breakfast
Rose & Crown, Via Napoli and La Hacienda De San Angel - any day between 6 and 7.45pm
Sanaa - any day and dinner time between 4-8pm
Chef Arts any time between 5-8pm
Yak & Yeti - dinner between 6-8pm

Other ones I’ve booked that seem to be mostly available even now are:
1900 PF
Crystal Palace
Tusker House
Planet Hollywood
Rainforest at AK
Boma
Narcoosees
MM Fant DP (booked as 3/4)
TTSR FOF DO (booked as 3/4)
Tusker ROL

This is a really useful post. I had spent yesterday planning what order I was going to try and book my ADR's and definitely need to change that order based on this thread!

One query I've got is that our party size is currently 7 but may end up being 8. I was planning on booking ADR's for 8 and then dropping down to 7 rather than booking for 7 and then trying to add an extra one. Is this the best option? I don't want to risk cancelling the whole reservation and rebooking for the correct number.

Definitely book for 8- You won't face any penalty if only 7 show- as long as one person shows up you are fine- trying to add a person later will be difficult- Most of the time a table for 7 or 8 is likely to be the same size in the restaurant
