Welcome back to planDisney, Gerard! We love to see a returning guest planning another Magical vacation!
Gerard,
dining around the Walt Disney World Resort is one of my favorite topics of conversation, so I'm very happy to chat with you today about making advanced dining reservations. If you are a guest of a Disney Resort hotel, yes, you can
make reservations for your entire trip (up to 10 days), 60 days before your check-in date.
As you'll find some restaurants around the Walt Disney World Resort are very popular, I would encourage you to have your list ready and log into your
My Disney Experience before 6:00 AM on your 60-day date. Gerard, it might also be helpful to know that you do not need to book your dining reservations in any order. So, for example, if you are hoping to dine among the stars at my kids' favorite new restaurant,
Space 220, on the third day of your trip, I would attempt to reserve that first as it's a popular option.
Lastly, Gerard, if at first you aren't able to find availability at your desired locations, just channel your inner Hercules as he sang, "
I can go the distance," and keep checking. I have had great luck in finding reservations in the days leading up to my trip as guests' plans do often change.
Wherever you find yourself eating breakfast, lunch or dinner, I hope it's a delicious part of your Disney day. Please come on back to planDisney with any other questions you might have.
Until then, Bon Appetit!
Lauren
