Disney made it sound like i had to wait 60 days for the 11th and 12th day of my stay. I loose the 10 extra days for the last two days? Has anyone tried making dinner reservations for the 11th day of your stay? If you are only modifying your resort reservation, your dining and park reservations should remain in place as long as you aren't in an early booking window for dining reservations. When is the last reservation of the day at the parks? If the park closes at 10 as example would the latest allowed reservation be 9 so you have time to get out by closing or would it be at 10?

Can my husband and myself be logged into my account at the same time and both try for a different set of restaurant reservations like I try to snag all dinners while he tries to snag lunches?

You can update the reservation later to add linked Family and Friends so it shows up in both accounts, but it is not necessary. You should be fine!

Everyone gains access at the day mark not any earlier , so what you want to do is search for the harder-to-get reservations for the second and third dates because it's still beyond the timeframe that the non-Disney hotel guests have.

Is there a way or a like a website that can alert me if there are any openings at a Disney restaurant. I m ow u can check everyday to see if you get lucky and have an opening Especially The week of your stay? And can u call the restaurants directly much appreciated! Unfortunately, there's no way to receive alerts when more dining reservations become available. We've gotten last-minute reservations by pure luck and chance. If it's not a Disney-owned restaurant, you can call the restaurant directly for instance, T-REX at Disney Springs , but otherwise, all reservations must be made through the Disney dining reservation system.

I have reservations for 3 at a couple of WDW restaurants. Would I be able to get 4 seated if I show up at the restaurant? For peace of mind, we would suggest calling, so you're able to confirm that your niece can be added to the reservation.

We are having the same problem with 60 days out with restaurants being totally filled already. I was up and started checking with app as soon as it opened each day. Any ideas? If you're checking as soon as the system opens, then it's likely that the guests who are staying on-site and can reserve dining reservations for the length of their stay up to 10 days are sharing some overlap with the timeframe you're going.

So if they're booking the dining reservations toward the end of their trip, then by the time you're able to check, there may not be any left, especially if you're trying for the more popular restaurants that book quickly.

However, if you're not seeing any for smaller, less popular restaurants, I'd suggest calling the dining reservation hotline to see if they can help out.

Otherwise, keep checking periodically because people will cancel reservations and more times could become available. Maybe you should think of hiring more cast members.

Wave at DJ R3X for us! We have a split stay booked. Will we be able to book dining for our full stay, or should I plan on going on a second time to book based on the start of our second stay?
