We haven't used the DDP for going on 3 years now. Back then pretty certain it was a 90 day window and you had to call to make the reservations. I understand the window is now 180 days, but can you now make your ADR's online, or search for online availability?

Final question, when making ADR's, either by phone or online (if able) do you have to have your MYW package already booked, or can you simply make the ADR's prior to room reservations being booked?

You sure can book online. The advantage to having your reservation already booked is that you can make reservations for your entire trip (up to 10 days) when you reach 180 days before arrival.

If you don't have a reservation yet, you can only make dining reservations one day at a time, 180 days in advance of the date you will be dining.

Also, you get to make your reservations one hour earlier than if you were calling as the on-line system opens at 6 a.m. eastern time.

OH --- I didn't realize the on-line system opened at 6am. I thought it was 24/7.

Online ADR's are available 24/7, but the 180 day window opens at 6 AM.

It's also very easy to change/modify ressies online. You can keep checking back to see if anything opens up in a place that was full before.

When I tried to book online dinner reservations at 6 a.m. the system kept blocking me out. I went and had a cup of tea, came back at 6:20 a.m. and Disney's system let me make all of my reservations. If the online system does not work exactly at 6 a.m. just keep trying.

Have fun planning.

Must have been a system glitch. For my upcoming trip, I got up early exactly 180 days out and was able to access the system and book all the reservation I wanted at exactly 6 a.m.
