Hi, Maeve! Thank you so much for stopping by with your question. I have a few tips that may help you score your favorite magical experiences for your upcoming Walt Disney World Resort vacation. Be Our Guest Restaurant and Cinderella's Royal Table are two of the most popular dining locations, so I can certainly understand your worry.
The best way to increase your chances of enjoying a meal at these locations is to stay at a Walt Disney World Resort hotel. Guests staying on-property can book their
Advance Dining Reservations 180 days in advance of their check-in date. When that magical day arrives, they can not only make their reservations for that first day, but for up to 10 days of their entire trip! When I have logged on at that 180 day mark, I have also found limited to no availability at the dining locations you mentioned. However, I have been able to find availability three or more days into our trip and could make those reservations at that time. There are
so many great benefits to being a Resort hotel guest, but I find this extended Advance Dining Reservation access to be extra magical!
Maeve, if you are not staying at a Resort hotel, then do keep trying! I find that so many guests change their plans along the way, especially in the weeks and days leading up to their trip. I frequently find spots at those same dining locations right before our vacation begins, sometimes even the day before! Keep your magic wand out and sooner or later, that "bibbidi bobbidi boo" you give it will be the thingamabob that does the job!
Thanks again for stopping by and please let us know if we can answer any other questions for you as you continue to plan your pixie-dusted adventures!
