Hello Margaret! My warmest welcome back to planDisney.
Dining forms such a magical part of any Disney vacation, so I understand you want to ensure you nab those reservations as soon as possible.
Dining reservations open up for all Guests 60 days before their arrival. Disney Resort hotel Guests have the added bonus of being able to book up to 10 days of reservations at this point.
Now, 60 days before arrival is April 16, 2024. Even if I write the date in my calendar, I always seem to second guess my calculations as the day approaches. So, just imagine how delighted I was to find a handy feature in
My Disney Experience that tells you the exact date you can start booking. It's located just under the dining circle on the homepage once you have logged in.
I recommend knowing where you want to book before your window opens (if you need tips, check out the
planDisney podcasts). I also recommend ensuring you have a valid credit card linked to your My Disney Experience account in advance.
OK, your dining reservation day has arrived. Please be sure to have logged into My Disney Experience before 6am EST (preferably with a steaming cup of tea by your side for hydration) and get to booking, stat. You might need to be flexible to ensure a table at your must-do dining spots. I promise, once you're at
The Crystal Palace, greeting Winnie with some puffy French toast on your plate, all the planning will have been worth it.
Margaret, I am certain that your dining experiences will be magical, regardless of your venue choice. I sincerely hope the advice I provided today will help you plan an unforgettable vacation at Walt Disney World Resort. If there is anything else I can do to be of assistance, please do not hesitate to
contact me here at planDisney.
