Disney World Dining Tips
Hey there, fellow Disney enthusiasts! If you're planning a trip to Walt Disney World, you gotta be quick on the draw when it comes to snagging those Advanced Dining Reservations (ADRs). Believe us, you don't wanna end up chomping on a burger at Cosmic Ray's when you could be feasting on the gray stuff at Be Our Guest!
Most of the restaurants at Disney World require ADRs, and the most popular ones like Space 220 and Ohana fill up faster than you can say "supercalifragilisticexpialidocious."
So, what's the trick?
Well, you gotta be on the ball and start planning at least 60 days in advance.
And, if you're staying at a Disney World Resort, you're in luck! You can book your dining for your entire trip starting 60 days before your arrival. That means you'll have an easier time snagging those hard-to-get reservations towards the end of your trip, and you only have to set your alarm once!
Speaking of alarms, you'll wanna set yours for 5:45 am ET (yes, it's early, we know) so you can be online and ready to pounce when those ADRs drop at 6:00 am ET. And, who knows, sometimes the system might release them even earlier!
