Welcome back to the Disney Parks Moms Panel, Kelly! Planning ahead is a smart way to stay on top of your plans and be able to get the perfect meals and attraction times for your family! My family typically leaves all the planning to me, so it’s important that i have a whole paper with our wants and wishes before I sit down to the computer.
Since
My Disney Experience has being enhanced, the option/follow through of steps you mentioned isn’t available anymore. I have found that sometimes more
Parks Hours can be seen using the “month” view, but unfortunately, new hours, experiences and events are being added all the time. I think we’ll just have to wait to see if hours will be extended into the future or if 180 days is the new standard. When you wake up to make your dining reservations, I would write down a few options for each day, and then an hour or so before the
dining portal opens, check the Hours calendar and then make your final selections based on hours. A backup plan is never bad to have!
If I can help you choose a new dining experience for you and your family, please let me know. We try to eat at a new-to-us restaurant every time we plan a trip! ~ Lindsey P.
