How far in advance can I make dining reservations for Auberge de Cendrillion, inventions and Billy Bobs wild West show if we are staying offsite ? We don't have a package as we are going to be getting A ps. Thanks

AFAIK it's 60 days.

The only limits to meal bookings for those staying off site in the Plaza Gardens Breakfast which can only be booked 3 days in advance.

It has to be 60 days until the last day of your holiday. We made the mistake of waiting until 60 days until we go to be told when making reservations we had to wait a few more days for the rest of the reservations.

If you want Auberge you need to ring the 60th day before the actual day you want to eat there.  I wouldn't wait to book that until you are 60 days from the end of your holiday as it books up very quickly but the rest will be okay to wait I would think.  I just wouldn't risk Auberge as I say, it's very popular.

It's only 3 days for Plaza Gardens breakfast.
Everything else (onsite, off site doesn't matter) is 60 days beforehand

Thanks everyone. We go every year so know to book places like Auberge exactly 60 days before but wasn't sure it worked the same if staying offsite with no package. This will be the first time we stay offsite and getting annual passes.  Thank you all for your help it's much appreciated xx

Hello

I booked our trip months ago.
As we had other things happening I completely forgot about it and only looked into the dining plans this week. We are going in about 3 weeks!

I booked the Plus half board plan, couldn't go with standard as we are staying at Sequoia Lodge. Whilst on the phone with the operator she asked whether I wanted to book a Character breakfast for £8 per head extra however they only had one session on the last day left and we are leaving quite early so we wouldn't have time. I was gutted as when I initially booked the trip I definitely wanted to do this as a lovely way of saying goodbye to the whole experience.

I spent a couple of days researching the restaurants and decided to go for Cape Cod, Plaza Garden, Parkside Diner and Bistrot chez Remy, however, I only had one or two slots available. I booked these today and on the off chance I asked the operator whether the Character breakfast is off limits for us now, however, she said to call them back 3 days before and we might get a booking. I am now crossing all my fingers hoping it'll work out. We are going for 4 nights so if we want the Character breakfast on the last morning, we will already be there '3 days prior'. Having said that, I will try to call 3 days before we leave as well, just in case I misunderstood the istructions. Better safe than sorry!

To sum up, it seems the Character breakfast can be booked prior with your plan but also 3 days before.
I'm off to pray this works out!
