Re: priority seating

90 days! Make sure you call at 6:59 EST for CRT! If you have two phones, dial again after you are on hold with the first one, I did this and actually got through on the second call first! Good luck!

Re: priority seating

Kizzmitt's right, use as many phones as you can to book CRT. We used our 2 cell phones and our home phone and we had great luck. Practice the day before so you know the menu options before actually have to call.

Thanks! This is a great tool...One stupid question though The date you use to calculate is they date that you wish to eat at each restaurant, not the date your vacation begins...right????

Re: priority seating

Right, you have to wait until 90 days out for each day of your trip. I booked allof our day by day, some wait a few days and book everything in one call.

Re: priority seating

You're welcome. Have fun calling, I think it's fun to book PSs, even at 6 am.

Re: priority seating

I guess if you have a specific date and time that you want to get for your dining reservation, it's best to call very early. The time slot available for reservation becomes very restrictive the closer you get to the date. (I just called Disney AS for a dinner on July 3rd... Wheew.. I was surprised I got a table at CG for Fantasy in the Sky!!)

One question: does anyone notices that the waittime is actually shorter if you call during the afternoon?? I called Disney AS earlier today and waited forever before someone became available to talk to me. Then I called MANY TIMES in the afternoon today, and the waittime was practically nothing.
