Greetings, Chad!
Welcome back, and thanks for coming to
planDisney with your question about
dining at the
Disneyland Resort. Meal planning is one of my favorite parts of preparing for a magical vacation!
As you mentioned, Guests can begin booking tables at restaurants that accept
advance dining reservations up to 60 days in advance of the date they plan to dine. Disneyland Resort dining reservations cannot be made for a complete length of stay. So, if you’re planning a multi-day stay, you will need to book your table-service meals one day at a time if you wish to secure reservations right at the 60-day mark for each day of your visit. However, you can review the calendar date range for up to 10 consecutive days to see the dining reservation availability at a given restaurant for your whole visit.
I’ve noticed that most table-service reservations become available online at 6:00 a.m. Pacific Time. When your first booking day arrives, plan to sign into your MyDisney account on
disneyland.com or in the
Disneyland mobile app a few minutes early and be ready to search for the most popular dining locations on your wish list first, such as
Blue Bayou Restaurant (my personal favorite table-service restaurant in
Disneyland Park).
If you’re not able to book a restaurant on your must-do list on the first try, don’t give up! Availability can fluctuate, so feel free to keep checking as your trip approaches. There's also the possibility of joining the
Mobile Dine Walk-up Availability list via the Disneyland mobile app at select restaurants.
I hope this helps answer your question, Chad. Please feel free to write back for more planning advice as your vacation draws near!
Wishing you magic,
Courtney
