Online Dining Reservation Question

Hi DW experts!

I have a quick question regarding the online reservation system. My arrival date is Oct 29th at the happiest place on Earth. I have always used the phone reservation system for past trips, and of course utilized the ability to make all of my reservations for the length of my trip 90 days before my arrival date. This year I can start making my ADR's on July 31st (this Friday, YAY!!!) My question is: will I be able to do the same with online reservations? Or on July 31st, will they only allow me to reserve that single day (for Oct 29th)?

Thanks to any and all that can help!

Thanks! So when I go to book an online reservation on the morning of the 31st... will I be able to do the "checkout" of my first day ressies, then input my reservation number for our trip, and then it will allow me to book the rest of my trip?

I'm just a bit confused since I have played around with the system and have not run across anywhere that asks me if I am a resort guest, or to put in my reservation confirmation #, etc...

Thanks!

As soon as you pull up the booking window you will be able to enter in your reservation number.

Just as an FYI for others that may be trying this... I was unable to make reservations other than the day of my arrival online. I associated my reservation on the dining reservation booking page and took all the appropriate steps. However, no matter what I tried I could not book anything for dates beyond my arrival date.

Something must either be wrong with the system or your reservation number. I do dining reservations several times a week and have never had a problem with going up to 10 days past the date of arrival.

Something must have been wrong then because I made my reservations for my entire trip at 6AM on my 90 day mark.

Ack... that is so weird. It pulls my correct reservation dates when I enter the resort reservation. Yet, it only allows me to click that arrival date on the drop-down calendar.

Grr.
