Question

Answer 1

Hi James,

The only downside to the free dining option is that people tend to book reservations at multiple restaurants, and often it can be almost impossible to get a reservation at a table service restaurant. All I can say is, hang in there. Keep trying to make reservations. As people firm up their plans, the conscientious ones will cancel any reservations that they've double booked to open up space for guests such as yourself.

Also, if you're willing to eat a little earlier or later than your typical meal time, you may have more luck. I've found that people will cancel reservations the day of, and you can often get a seating time from calling from your resort room before you leave for the parks in the morning.

Make some reservations at less popular locations. Kona Cafe and Biergarten are two restaurants that my family had to "settle for" on our last vacation, and both restaurants left us pleasantly surprised.

Hope this helps. Have a magical vacation!
