    Hi there, our dining reservation window opens next Saturday for our 16 night trip. What time (uk time) can I begin booking please and will bookings be open for the duration of our trip? Thank you in advance.

    Welcome to planDisney, Emma!

    Adventure is out there! An upcoming trip to Walt Disney World Resort will make your joy soar to infinity and beyond. If you're interested in makin' memories, then get your camera ready! The 50th Anniversary Celebration has plenty of EARidescent excitement for you to experience and enjoy. Mickey Mouse is looking rather dapper in his new outfit and he can't wait for you to arrive!

    One of the many benefits of staying at a Disney Resort Collection hotel is the ability to make reservations up to 60 days in advance of your trip plus the length of your stay (up to 10 days). If you're staying longer than 10 days, then you'll just have to make your final few dining reservations 60 days out from the date you want them. Reservation availability for select Walt Disney World restaurants typically begins each day at approximately 10:45 AM (BST).

    To make sure you stand the best chance of getting the reservation you want, here's what I suggest you do: Decide beforehand what restaurant you'd like to eat at and when. You might even want to have some backup options, just in case. Make sure that your credit card information is accurate and up-to-date on your My Disney Experience account. 60 days before the date you arrive, at 10:45 AM. (BST), you can book your restaurant. 

    If you don't get a reservation that you really wanted, don't panic. You'll be surprised how often people cancel their reservations last minute. Tables often open up the nearer you get to the date. For example, a couple of weeks ago, my friends and I got a table for Space 220 the day before our trip. The Blue Moon Cauliflower was out-of-this-world! You've just got to keep checking and quickly make the reservation if something opens up.

    I hope that's helpful, Emma.
