Is it 6am or 7am to make dining reservations?

[Corie]

I can make my dining reservations on August 31st.

Do I call in at 6am or 7am?

and

What phone number do I use to call in? I have 407-939-3463.
Is this the number to use for my dining reservations?



Thanks so much!!

Its 7am EST to call in or they have started online dining reservations and you can log in for that at 6 am.

Some on the disboards have said that there is slightly different availability ~ if you can't get it online try calling and vice versa. It also seems like they're still working out some bugs with the system

Lori's given you the times, I would definitely do online at 6 am, get what you can, and if there is anything you are not able to get, call in at 7 am.

That number is the correct number for dining reservations. Call a few times to familiarize yourself with the prompts, it will get you through to a cast member faster.
For the first prompt, say nothing (for English), then say "reservation", then say "no", then press 2, then press 2 again.

Also start dialing at 6:58 am. If the call answers and you don't hear the "chimes" that start the recording, hang up- it means you are going to get the message that they are closed. Then keep redialing until you hear the chimes when it answers- then you will know the dining line is open and HOPEFULLY you are at the front of the line!!! I did this three days in a row (my ADR date was 3 days before on line reservations started) and got through with no hold time every time.
