The 2-month rule, the Disney hotels perk and tips to never miss availability.
For the general public, reservations open exactly 2 months in advance. It is crucial to be ready to book on the official app as soon as the slots open.
If you are staying at a Disney hotel, you can book your dining as soon as your stay is confirmed (sometimes up to 12 months in advance). This is why many restaurants are fully booked for the general public.
If you missed the booking window, set up an alert on DlandTables. The system will notify you as soon as a visitor cancels their table.
