Hello there, Arlene. Thanks for stopping by
planDisney with your question. Disney dining is one of my favorite things to chat about.
Alrene, you can make your Disney dining reservations 60 days prior to your vacation. If you are staying at a
Walt Disney World Resort Hotel, you can make them for the length of your stay up to 10 days at that 60 day out mark. If you are staying off property, you'll be able to make your day-by-day 60 days out.
You have two ways of making
dining reservations, online or over the phone. Online reservations open up at 6:00 a.m. Mickey Mouse's time. This is the method that I encourage because the most popular places can fill up rather quickly and you want to have the best chance possible. If you'd like to speak with a Cast Member over the phone and have them help you with your reservations, you can do that by calling 407-WDW-DINE starting at 7:00 a.m. Mickey Mouse's time.
To make dining reservations online, starting at 6:00 a.m., I suggest setting your alarm bright and early. Have your computer nearby and be logged in to your
MyDisneyExperience account around 5:50 a.m. - 5:55 a.m. Once you are logged in, hover your cursor over the "Things To Do" tab at the top, this will open up a drop-down menu. From there, select the option to "Make Reservations" under the dining section. You can begin the search process by selecting the date you'd like to dine, time and how many people are in your party. This will bring up all of the options available to you and you can make your dining reservations from those listed. Alternatively, if you have a specific restaurant you'd like to eat at, you can go to that restaurant's webpage and make your dining reservations for that restaurant there.
I hope you are able to make all of the dining reservations your heart desires for your upcoming trip. If you have any other questions while you plan, please feel free to stop back by and
ask me. I'm here to help.
Happy planning!
