A Disney vacation entails much more than the awesome whirls and thrills of its amusement offerings. The destination has also established itself as a top offering for world-class dining. As such, if you think you can walk right into a park restaurant and grab a table, you will be sadly mistaken. Not only are reservations necessary, but knowing when, where, and how to visit each restaurant is also essential. Learn how a Disney vacation planner can help with this process.
Reservation Calendar
In the Disney universe, advanced dining reservations, or ADRs, are what dining reservations are called. Reservations open up based on the timing of your trip. If you make a reservation early, you will have more options. However, an advance window is only available if you are staying on the property.
If you are staying off-site, the window opens much later. Even with advance notice, for busy locations and periods, you must be ready to make your reservation as soon as your window opens. Vacation planners monitor your window status and are prepared to log on and make your reservations immediately, so you do not have to worry about the hassle.
Plan of the Day
The draw of Disney is its rides and attractions, but you have to make time to refuel and eat throughout the day too. The challenge for some people is scheduling dining reservations alongside ride and other attraction reservations to ensure adequate time. Disney vacation planners are essentially experts.
From average wait times for park attractions to the time it takes to get from one attraction to a dining location, they will use their knowledge to schedule dining reservations that align with your agenda for the day.
Regular Monitoring
If you cannot tell, securing dining reservations can sometimes be competitive. As such, even with a vacation planner ready to go once your reservation window opens, you might not be able to get a table at every location you want to visit right away.
However, vacation planners monitor reservations and sign up for cancellation options, even after you have already arrived at the park, to see if any reservations open up. So, even if you do not get your top pick immediately, with a planner on your side, there is a good chance you will.
A vacation planner can turn an already memorable trip into an extraordinary experience, so be sure to reach out for their help.
