Hello there, Howard!
As Lumiere from
Beauty and the Beast said, I invite you to relax and pull up a chair as planDisney proudly presents - how to book advanced dining reservations! Connecting with my friends and family over a delicious meal at the Walt Disney World Resort after a morning filled with magic is one of my favorite ways to spend time at the Resort. I find that everyone needs a little break from the sun and walking in the afternoon.
As you pointed out, Guests with a valid Disney Resort hotel reservation can make reservations for their entire length of stay (for up to a 10-night stay) up to
60 days in advance of their vacation. This is a wonderful benefit of staying at the Walt Disney World Resort, and it has helped me score reservations at popular restaurants like
Space 220 Restaurant,
Topolino’s Terrace - Flavors of the Riviera, and
Be Our Guest Restaurant.
At this time, Guests staying at the Walt Disney World Resort can book advanced dining reservations, including friends and family who are not part of your Resort reservation or Resort Guests. As long as you all plan on eating together, you can certainly make reservations for Guests that are not part of your Resort reservation.
The best way to keep track of everyone’s dining plans is to link your entire party to your
“My Family & Friends List.” You can add them to your list by finding them through already connected Guests, importing their information from their hotel reservation, entering their name and age, or adding them on the M
y Disney Experience mobile app. Once you are all linked, you can add friends and family to existing dining reservations under “My Plans.”
Let me know if you have any other questions about this process or if you’d like any recommendations. Thanks for being our Guest.
May the magic be with you!Melanie
