I just made my dining reservations for the first 10 days of my DVC vacation. I had NO problems getting into the system. I'll admit that I was worried given the previous problems regarding the retrieval of DVC reservations. But lo and behold there they were, no issues! I was able to get the vast majority of what I wanted at the times I wanted with a few exceptions. Tutto Italia was booked for the time frames I was looking for on the 4th of November so we ended up with Chefs de France instead. I was able to get a 6:20pm at Yachtsman which was later than I wanted but when I called back I was able to get a 5:55pm. Other than that I got exactly what I wanted:
Sunday, November 1st - Olivia's 5:15pm (Arrival Day)
Monday, November 2nd - 1900 Park Fare 5:10pm
Tuesday, November 3rd - Yachtsman Steakhouse 5:55pm
Wednesday, November 4th - Chefs de France 5:30pm
Thursday, November 5th - Tusker House 8:25am
Friday, November 6th - Chef Mickey's 5:30pm
Saturday, November 7th - Mama Melrose's 5:20pm
Sunday, November 8th - 'Ohana 5:30pm
Monday, November 9th - Akershus Princess Breakfast 8:30am and Tutto Italia 5:35pm (DD#3's Birthday)
Tuesday, November 10th - Whispering Canyon 5:25pm
Wednesday, November 11th - 1900 Park Fare 8:15am (DD#2's Birthday) (We've had dinner at 1900 before but never breakfast)
*** All of the restaurants we have not yet dined at are in pink
Our proposed dining plans for the remainder of our trip are:
Thursday, November 12th - Yachtsman Steakhouse
Friday, November 13th - Crystal Palace (Breakfast)
Saturday, November 14th - Tutto Italia
Sunday, November 15th - 1900 Park Fare (My parents are coming in on the 6th and 1900 used to be our first night tradition so mom wanted to dine here once on her trip but. . .We are moving to the Polynesian for our last night in the "World" so I thought we would stick close to "home" DH isn't a big 'Ohana fan so we don't want to repeat that but I was thinking of Kona Cafe for something different)
