    Hi! We are arriving in 9 Days and are so excited! If my family is ten minutes late to a dining reservation will they still hold it for us? Will be charged a fee? Thanks

    Hi there , Patricia!

    Your exciting vacation is just days away and I know you must be jumping for joy!  

    With regard to your Disney Dining reservation, let me try to help.  My recommendation, of course, is that you try to arrive for your reservation about 10 minutes in advance.  However, things do come up.  In my experience, the Cast Members at the restaurants will do everything in their power to get you seated if you are late.  Please do keep in mind that you may have to wait a while if other Guests are waiting for their own reservations to be fulfilled.  In other words, you may have to wait longer.  Depending on the busyness of the restaurant and time of year, you may be put as a stand-by Guest if you are more than 15 minutes late. This really just happens on a case by case basis.  You will not be charged a fee for a late arrival. I hope this helps.

    Feel free to write back with any additional questions you might have, Patricia.

    I wish you a truly magical vacation.
