Our ADR is fast approaching. Here are the first 10 days of restaurants we want to book. Are they in the right order in terms of popularity so that we have the best chance of getting what we want when booking them online?

Yak & Yeti - River of Lights package
The Boathouse
Be Our Guest
Mama Melrose - Fantasmic package
1900 Park Fare, Grand Floridian
Hoop De Hoo
Sanaa
Raglan Road
Cape May
ESPN

Thank you!

Thank you!

In my (one) experience there is loads of availability at the 180 day mark for most things. In fact I carried on chopping and changing for weeks afterwards. I think CRT was the only thing that I noticed went quickly, we did get it, but in the end changed our minds.

I booked ROL package this morning in Tiffins and I booked Fantasmic package with Mame Melrose about a week ago - and as you will see from my countdown, we have not got that long to go now.

I found be our guest went very quickly.

I would probably move Be Our Guest up the list to either 1st or 2nd place if it's Dinner that you want to book, as it's still hugely popular and gets fully booked very quickly. I don't think Yak & Yeti participates in the Rivers of Light dining package, it's only Tiffins and Tusker House on the WDW website. There also doesn't seem to be any bookings being taken beyond June at the moment, so you may have to wait to book that. Other than that, it all looks good to me!

We did bog first but everything else in whatever order we fancied. I've been playing with bookings for 3 months now and still able to swap things so I wouldn't panic too much on 180 day mark.

Thank you everyone - great advice! Appreciate your help

I would book Be Our Guest first, especially as ROL packages haven't been released for September yet. I'd book Mama Melrose second to get a good time.
