Does anyone know why you are unable to book lunches at Le Cellier at the end of September? I was able to book all my other ADRs but not there. The Castmember was unsure as to what might be going on.....any ideas? :shrug:

I wonder if it is due to the free dining, since lunch is one credit and dinner is two. :shrug:

We will be there the same dates as you except we are arriving the 22nd. I made my ADR's yesterday and was able to get Le Cellier for lunch but there was only one time period left. I agree with the other poster about the free dining maybe being a problem. Most who want to eat there probably don't want to use two credits so they are going for lunch.
Since Le Cellier went signature for Dinner, lunch books up faster than ever before. I have run into a couple of instances where it was booked solid at 185 days out.

I was able to get 1:30pm ADR on 9/18 but I called first thing in the morning as soon as we were allowed to book (on 3/19). I do know that the Food and Wine festival begins on 9/28

I tried to get in last fall. No dice. It's extremely popular, I guess.

I booked on 180 +10 for 9/19 for lunch. First time ever, had to do it. We can't wait. I knew it'd book fast with it being signature dinning now and only 1 TS (during free dining) at lunch time. Keep checking, maybe something will open up.

I believe the free dining is going to be most crowded at the end of Sept. With the ToT run, Taking advantage of F&W, October 1st celebrations...it seems like everyone is heading down at the end of Sept.
I have a Le Cellier lunch for mid Sept. with no problem. So it really leads me to think that the end of Sept. is going to be much busier.

Today was my 180 day mark and nothing for Le Cellier for lunch any of the days I checked 
But dining came up with plenty of options. Guess everyone wants that 1 credit lunch! Also nothing for dinner at Ohana the days I tried, too. I figured those 2 would book up quick.

We usually book what we can at the 180 mark and if there is a place we would like, but can't we book an alternate. However, we do continue to check back, especially, the week we get down there. Try concierge early in the morning to see if any seating has come available. We have always have had luck doing it this way. Plus, who really knows what they want to eat 180 days in advance? We usually end up making changes after we get there. But we are not all that picky, we like to experience many different things.

There was all kinds of weird things that were not available the second half of my trip when I went in and tried to book. Being that you can do 180+10 days Le Cellier was booked for lunch 188 days out which is kind of crazy.
I had issues with these also..

If you have a reservation at a Disney resort you can begin to make dining reservations at 180 days before your arrival for up to 10 days worth of your trip. For example, if you arrive on 1/1/2013 you will be able to make dining reservations from 1/1/2013 to 1/11/2013 on 7/5/2012.

If you're staying at a Disney resort - you technically can book 190 days ahead of time...because your 180 day starts on the day of arrival and if you're on Disney property - they let you book for the rest of your stay (up to 10 days)
This way you don't have to call back every single day to get ADRs for 180 days from that exact day..you can do your whole trip at once (assuming its 10 days or less)
