QUESTION OF THE DAY!

How long until you can book your dining reservations and do you plan on booking any?!?


We are 18 days away!

10 days till dining. We are making reservations.
My wishlist
- Bon Voyage
-BOG breakfast
- Via Napoli
- Biergarten
-Garden Grill
- 1900
- Tusker House
- Prime Time
- Sci-Fi
- Whispering Canyon

I think I'm forgetting one. I have 10 days to remember. LOL

Love the new roll call.
 
16 days and 21 days until ADR date for us with our split stay! I am handing over the ADR task to my friend as we will be at a wedding and the internet will be questionable. I can't wait to have our reservations made!

I am trying not to book every meal just in case we want it. This trip will be lighter on the table service than normal for us since the grandparents don't really care about dining. Here is what I am planning right this moment:

'Ohana
Tusker House
BOG Breakfast
Garden Grill
Sanaa
Beaches and Cream
California Grill or Jiko (date night)

I'm tempted to add Crystal Palace and probably 10 other places I'm forgetting right now!
 
34 days from ADRs here.

Ohana
BoG Dinner
Sanaa
Via Napoli lunch
Either Raglan Road or Whispering Canyon Cafe (anybody have a recommendation here?)

We're limiting ourselves to one table service per day and keeping the other meal QS (but picking the good ones!)
 
25 days until my time to reserve dining. Only one I have to have is Biergarten. Yum. Trying to figure out some different places this time.
 
31days

Booking at least 1Ts per day and 2 on some days.

We are trying the Bon voyage breakfast and Teppan Edo for the first time.

Glad I stumbled upon this thread! I've been a lurker for a couple years but decided to finally join in on the fun. It's fun to see all the other Dec. trips planned!

We have a surprise trip planned for my DD 9th birthday! We arrive at POP on Dec. 13th and leave Dec. 18th. It will be Myself, DH, DD 9 and DD 7!

Right around 23 days until I can do ADR. Really hoping for CRT on her actual birthday (16th) as we were unable to get a reservation last time we went. Beyond that I'm not really certain on any other restaurants. I should probably get that figured out! LOL!

24 days here!

And I see the braised pork is no longer on the BOG dinner menu, wahhhhh. I know we can get it at lunch but I wanted to do dinner again there.

We for sure will eat at 'Ohana. And probably H&V dinner for the characters (loved the holiday dine last year!) Other than that I need to get to figuring things out! We are going with my sister and nephew so I need to get their list of must-dos and make a plan!
 
Hi Everyone! I've been lurking on the boards for a while, figured I should sign up and join in! We've booked Dec 14-21 at All Star Music, first trip for our family - Me, DH, DS - 9 and DD -7. We aren't telling the kids till a couple of days before, and I'm madly trying to plan out our ADRs at this point!

Welcome! Hope you have a great vacation! First trips with kids that age are always special.
 
I have 22 days and I just made my list of what ressies I need and in the order I will book - only Ohana and bog breakfast I expect to be hard to get the rest should be simple - once that is done I just need airfare

I make reservations this Friday for our Thanksgiving trip... and then June 30 for our Christmas break trip. Problem is we will be on a cruise during reservation time so i won't be making ressies until we get off the ship a few days later:(
For Thanksgiving we are looking to book Mickey's Backyard Barbeque. We did it a few Thanksgivings back and loved it for the holiday!
For our Dec between Christmas and NY trip we want to do a Candlelight Processional lunch or dinner (thinking Biergarten), Hoop, Sanaa, BOG or Tony's and Via Napoli.
 
We're booked 12/3 - 12/9 at Pop. If we get a pin or code we may move to a moderate. :)

Our party:

Barry - (me)
Stef P - (wifey)
Marsha - (sis-in-law)
 
Sorry if this has been asked already. Do we have to purchase park tickets and tickets to the Christmas party?
Nope, just Christmas party tickets. The party officially starts at 7pm, but you can enter as early as 4pm with a party ticket.
