dining reservation perk(?)

[skelster]

:headscrat Don't know if I should post this here or in dining section:headscrat , but as we changed our room reservation the member services rep told me we can book dining through the DVC member services 190 days ahead of time...10 days earlier than the general public through central dining. Anyone want to confirm this?

Confirmed!

The Disney 180 +10 day policy has been in effect for at least a year.

The way it works is that anyone staying at a Disney Resort can book starting at 180 days prior to arrival (just like the general public) PLUS the next 10 days.

So you can't actually book an ADR 190 days before arrival, but you can book the next 10 days before non Disney Resort guests can.

This may have started the same time as the DDP, I'm not certain.

Also some venues can be booked even more in advance (my HS English teacher just rolled over!) Hoop Dee Doo Review still accepts ressies up to 2 years in advance.

The 180 + 10 is so that you can book all over ADRs for a trip at one time. In other words, you wait for 180 days out before your arrival, and then you can book meals for up to 10 days of your trip. Saves having to call on a daily basis (which surely jammed the phonelines).
