Disney World Reservation System -POST 1 FOR LINKS

[Roscoe18]

Dining reservation trick was a great tip - once I got past that, the reservations went smoothly. Thanks to everyone for the help!

I was able to get what we wanted 12/18-20.

I was only able to plan 2 days and the other 3 says no availability

Dining hack so worked. Was able to book our days and verify them on MDE app on phone

I was able to book park ressies for DH and I for Aug just using our APs but when I tried to book the whole family starting on Dec 9th I get almost all the way through but the last screen I get an error. I know that our adults kids tickets are "dated" Dec. 17th from an earlier dated trip but I was assured that the date difference of our booked reservation of Dec. 9th and their ticket dates of Dec. 17th wouldnt be an issue.

Apparently it IS!..

Just trying to understand this correctly (I don’t pick dates until June 28 since offsite so I’m reading for tricks).
My current tickets are dated tickets for August. But we are now going in April. So when I go book my April dates at I going to get error messages and it won’t work?

Got in finally using Explorer. Got everything I wanted for trips 7/24-7/31 and 9/2- 9/5 (also going to Universal for 9/6-9/7. Woo Hoo!!!! Now I can go to work.

Only got 3 of my 8 days. Suddenly all the rest of the days are sold out? How does that make any sense?

One trick if you can't sign in - Go to "make dining reservation", find a date and time that is open - click to make it. It will ask you to login, cancel once logged in and tada you are good.

This avoids the castle

Bless you for this info! After nearly two hours, my DH’s laptop was able to sign in and we are proud holders of 10 park reservations! Whew, might add some Irish Cream to my coffee. Cheers!

Finally managed top get the login screen on DH's laptop. I made it through the orbit countdown (multiple resets adding back 30 seconds) and fnally was able to make our park reservations for September. No problems once I was in. After I was totally finished with the process on DH's laptop, the pink castle on my PC finally changed to a login prompt. I had 3 separate windows (Chrome, Chrome incognito, and Edge) and only 1 ever got to the login screen.

Thanksgiving in the Magic Kingdom
Now to just get back my dinner reservation for Liberty Tree Tavern for dinner that night at the 60 day mark...

We also chose MK for Thanksgiving. We were avoiding it on this day, but I figured with this reservation system they will all be the same capacity

Do you have a party member under 3 or otherwise with a different ticket media? That might be your problem. Once I removed my 2 year old, it was smooth sailing.

Thank you that's what it was. As soon as I removed my two year old everything worked great

 

[kylenne]

Anyone else just get a blank page? Tried the dining reservation trick but still only get a blank page from my ipad

Try an incognito window, that's what worked for me.

YOU CANNOT RESERVE UNDER 3. I had to reserve my days without my 2 year old. Once I removed him from the party I had zero issues by logging in under dining.

I hope everyone gets all the days they want!

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! I had the same problem, but didn't think of that.. Your post SAVED ME!!!

Can't wait to get back to the parks - come on pink castle!

 

[Elle :)]

After being stuck on castle page, I entered the site in a new tab to make a dining reservation at Disney Springs, made a random one and was able to log in that way. Got to reservation page, waited with countdown (roughly 15 minutes) and got in! Got all my reservations... was actually able to reserve 3 parks with my 2 day park hopper!

This 100% worked for me. I opened a new private window and tried this trick. Got right in and made all my reservations for Aug/Sept.

I was able to reserve every day but one for my December trip. I forgot what I still needed to book and went to my plan. Not I'm in space again.

Thanks all for being my company thru this misery! I made it finally! Let's all meet at Trader Sam's for drinks after this! (unless you have to make a ressy and then forget it!). Good luck to those still waiting - hang in there!

 

[tsme]

I’m signing in. But not working blank page.

 

[Dulcee]

Do you have someone without a ticket in your party? Under 3 years prehaps?

Yes! It finally gave me that error!

 

[johnnyr]

What a JOKE! The never extended my family members AP's. Only mine so it will only allow me to make reservations for me. I'm off to make Universal reservations until Disney can get their act together. This is not a vacation to me.
