Hi Liz! Welcome to planDisney! I'm so happy you stopped by and sent a question to me!
I'm so sorry you are having problems making
advanced dining reservations. I can relate to this being important and it's always at the top of my planning list. I will do my best to help! I have found that sometimes, my computer needs a little pixie dust in the way of a restart to help it be magical again. You might also try clearing any browsing history, including cookies, but not the ones from
Gideon's Bakehouse at
Disney Springs! Hopefully, by doing these things, your computer will be ready to make those important dining reservations.
As you are planning, I wanted to make sure you know about a couple of things that are available during your stay! You will be within a short walk to ride on
water transportation from the dock at the
Walt Disney World Swan Hotel over to the International Gateway entrance at
EPCOT. This entrance will land you right in the middle of the countries! The
EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival is happening right now and you don't want to miss all of the delicious sips and bites at the
Global Marketplaces around the World Showcase! If you need a spot to take a break, I highly recommend stopping by the America Gardens Theatre to enjoy the
Eat to the Beat Concert Series taking place on select nights.
Because you are a guest at the
Walt Disney World Swan Reserve, a
Deluxe Resort Hotel, you can enjoy
Extended Evening Theme Park Hours on select nights at select theme parks. You can also take advantage of
Early Theme Park Entry at every theme park, every day!
Liz, I hope you are able to make all of the advanced dining reservations your heart is wishing for! If you have more questions, please feel free to reach out to me again or to
planDisney! We love helping guests like you plan their vacations at
The Most Magical Place on Earth!
Happy Planning!
Smiles,
Lisa
