On Line System Down??/Phone Lines Busy?? {Merged Threads}

**Bohms4** · 10-27-2009, 06:06 AM

Anyone else having trouble booking online???? I'm tried two different computers...no luck...

**ryels** · 10-27-2009, 06:08 AM

Same here

Why I bothered to get up early today, I'll never understand. Disney's website has always been pretty unreliable.

Oh well, looks like we'll be sitting on the phone this morning...

**Bohms4** · 10-27-2009, 06:10 AM

I could have used that extra hour of sleep.

**A&M'sMommy** · 10-27-2009, 06:10 AM

Yup, for me too. GRR!

I'm up, dressed and ready for the day and it's dark out and the kiddos are still asleep. The part that stink is 7:00 a.m. is CRAZY time trying to get everyone fed and out the door for school and I'll be on hold!

**Gregandmel** · 10-27-2009, 06:15 AM

No real surprise. I've been tossing and turning all night long not wanting to sleep past 4:45am so I could be ready by 5am to start booking (it's 5:15am right now). I was able to get my first reservation, but then POW - got an HTTP Server error before it finished - now it won't let me book anything - says an "unusually high volume" on the website and cannot process requests. Hmmmm.....could be possibly that we opened up the 180 booking window for 3 months worth of vacationers??? At least I figured this was going to happen - oh well - guess I'll try later on in the day.

**TheDuckRocks** · 10-27-2009, 06:17 AM

I knew this was going to happen today. Remember this is the date that they are changing over to the 180+10 reservation time frame so extra, extra busy. Well back over there to see if it's still jammed.

**Brooklynos** · 10-27-2009, 06:18 AM

Yep, having the same problem. Why they even bothered having the website handle this kind of traffic today I don't know but it sure is frustrating to wake up at 5am my time to get online just to have it be a waste of time. I'll be on hold with everyone else at 6am central/7am eastern. Good luck everybody in getting your adrs.

**mustBgoofy** · 10-27-2009, 06:18 AM

I got up early!!! On the bright side - If you go to the Disney website - EMH's have been posted for the water parks and Animal Kingdom through April. The other's have their calendars open through April, but nothing on them. Hope this will help someone who is sitting on the phone like me and needs to adjust ressie's!!

**Bohms4** · 10-27-2009, 06:19 AM

I was on right when it opened too but I didn't get anything. I got the error right from the begining. Their phones are going to be slammed at 7 EST. There's got to be a better way......

**BethieTink** · 10-27-2009, 06:21 AM

What a nightmare so far. One computer can't even get into it and the other is stuck in "please wait while we process your request" he*l! This was just the disaster I was fearing this morning. Thanks Disney!!

**Bohms4** · 10-27-2009, 06:24 AM

The calendar doesn't even pop up for me on the Dining Reservations page....that box is yellowed out.

**Disneyfirsttimer** · 10-27-2009, 06:26 AM

Down for me too! Been up since 5:30pm. Just sits on the page. Got one ressie to work, but then it jammed as I tried to place in cart. Now it says due to high volume it can't complete my request. No kidding! You would think the system could handle it, but no. I am not surprised. I expected this. Can't wait to try to get on the phone at 7. That should be fun.

**Gregandmel** · 10-27-2009, 06:27 AM

The website now says "The system is down for maintenance" - I had a feeling it would be overloaded this morning. Just remember everyone: NOt everyone is trying for the same dates and places!! Patience is key today

**Disneyfirsttimer** · 10-27-2009, 06:27 AM

Now is says the site is down for maintenance. Try again later. Are they kidding?????

I also love the "Your session is about to expire due to inactivity"...what hitting the "Check Availability" button 100 times doesn't count as activity????

**Always Goofy** · 10-27-2009, 06:31 AM

Yep...I am with you all!!! I was up and out the door just so I could be in front of my computer too at 6:00 AM. I get the same messages. I tried to even log on with my reservation number and after a while that went through, but now...no luck either.

I think we all expected this

**Maleficent's Dad** · 10-27-2009, 06:33 AM

That extra hour of sleep now gone...

Disney's Tech Dept =

Can't imagine the phone lines this morning are going to be all that fun either...

Too funny! Same here.

**Always Goofy** · 10-27-2009, 06:37 AM

Well, I tried to open another window to Disney and now nothing comes up for a LONG time! It is still opening and giving the same message...

Make Your Reservation
Sorry, the booking system is currently unavailable. Please try again later or call (407) WDW-DINE or (407) 939-3463. If you are under 18 years of age, you must have your parent or guardian's permission to dial this number.

Just say to your self...All it takes is faith and trust....and a WHOLE LOT of pixie dust!

**BethieTink** · 10-27-2009, 06:38 AM

Ya know, the funny thing is I don't care if they do 180 or 90 days. I just want them to stick with one or the other and not keep going back and forth. Also, I would like that when they do make a final decision as to what the timeframe is have a system that can handle it.
