    I have a trip planned in Dec,it starts Dec 4th and then on the 8th we go on a Disney cruise and come back to Disney hotel on Dec 12, why can't we make dining reservations for the entire trip, meaning the following weekend, since all disney trip

    Hi Elizabeth!

    Thanks for coming back to visit us at planDisney! What an amazing trip you have coming up!

    When it comes to making your dining reservations, Advanced Dining Reservation booking windows are linked to each separate resort reservation. So, since you have two separate resort stays on your upcoming vacation, you’ll have two separate Advanced Dining Reservation booking windows.  

    The booking window for the first part of your stay will open at 6 AM Eastern, 60 days prior to your first resort check-in date. And your next booking window will open at 6 AM Eastern, 60 days prior to your second resort check-in date. 

    I actually just had a similar situation with my booking window! On my upcoming Disney vacation, I’ll be staying at one Disney resort the very first night, then moving to a different Disney resort for the remainder of my stay. So, I had two Advanced Dining Reservation booking windows as well, even though my resort stays are back-to-back!

    When it comes time to make your dining reservations, if you don’t happen to snag a reservation that you were hoping for, I highly recommend checking back as your trip gets closer and even while you’re at Disney World. Guests can cancel up to two hours prior to their reservation, so as people change their plans, it may open up a spot for you!

    I hope that helps! And I hope you have the BEST trip!
