    I really want to dine at Cinderella's Royal Table, but it's completely booked. What are the chances we will be able to walk-in?

    I always tell my kids "Never say never", because you just don't know when things might happen that you completely never expected.  When it comes to Cinderella's Royal Table, however, getting a table as a walk up would truly be something totally unexpected.  The restaurant generally sells out within minutes of the dining reservation line opening up, and because a credit card guarantee is required, cancellations are usually done in advance and the space quickly filled up.

    Your best bet is to continue calling on a daily basis to see if you happen to catch one of those cancellation spots.  You are certainly welcome to walk up to the podium, but if I were you, I'd try to do it as early in the day as you can.

    As an alternative, you could try booking a reservation at 1900 Park Fare, where you can usually see some of the characters from Cinderella at dinner (characters are subject to change).  If it's the princesses you are seeking, try Storybook Dining at Restaurant Akershus at the Norway Pavilion in EPCOT's World Showcase.

    Good luck!
