So today is supposed to be my leading reservation booking day and none of my dates are showing up for booking dining except for Monday august 22.
Did I do the math wrong?
My leading reservation is booked for aug 12-29 (actual stay is 22/29)
I hate Disney IT
Does it only allow you to book for the first 10 days of your stay?
You should be all set - each day will open up as it is the 60+10th day out (youāll be able to book for the 23rd tomorrow etc).
Ohhh gotcha. Thanks!!!
I thought that might be the case but itās been a while since I did a leading I forgot!!
Thatās it. I have 8/12-26 booked as leading (actual stay 8/20-26) and could do through the 22nd this morning. Tomorrow the 23rd will open, Wednesday the 24th will open, etc.
Sorry if this has been answered before, but I was wondering why the lead reservation has to go all the way through the end of the stay (and not just up to the start of the main room reservation). I originally had the lead end at the start of the other, but just noticed that the spreadsheet (thanks!) says to book all the way through.
Hereās an exampleā¦
I made my leading for 8/12-26 with an actual stay of 8/20-26.
Today I was able to book 8/21 and 8/22 (not doing an ADR on 8/20).
Had I not made the leading or had I made the leading up to 8/20 I would have been waiting until the window opened for 8/20 which is June 21. Iāll be able to book my next ones each day going forward. With the leading going through the end of my stay, Iām DONE booking ADRs before that opens.
If Iād just booked 8/12-20, the ability to keep tagging on would not be there. It would end with 8/20 UNTIL June 21 at which point the rest of the days open. So you totally negate the +10 and then one day at a time that the leading gives you.
Because a new reservation starts the 60 day clock over.
You said it much simpler than I just did. 
To add to what the others said above:
You donāt get more than 60 days for days you are NOT staying on property. So your advantage for your leading reservation ends the day your leading reservation ends, because the system assumes you are leaving Disney property (as Ryan said, the clock resets for each new reservation). It doesnāt automatically meld your two reservations together as a single stay.
You all are THE BEST!
whoopsiesā¦ going off to modify my reservationā¦
(somehow I missed the logic of why it needed to go to the end of the real reservation. Thank you @nnunnelly for asking!)
can you amend a leading resevation to move the checkout date further out? without impacting bookings already made?
I need ideally to switch from 7 day to 14 days.
Yes, I extended mine online with no issues.
thanks
So far, so good!! Thanks to my leading Iāve gotten:
8/21 - 7:30am Boma
8/22 - 11:30am Space220 (restaurant)

I listened to this in my way home today:
One hint? All about how leading reservations work.
Accomplished todayā¦

Made a couple of minor tweaks yesterday, so here is the current line-upā¦
8/21 - 7:30am Boma
8/22 - 11:30am Space220 Lounge; 6:30pm Beaches & Cream

8/24 - 6:30pm Skipper Canteen
8/25 - 7:30am Topolinoās Terrace; 6:30pm La Hacienda
One day to go. Planning to go for Tusker House breakfastā¦but also debating if I want to take up park time on my last day with a dining reservationā¦
That looks great!
Iām not going to do a leading reservation, but thanks for the reminder about open table. Booked Boathouse, Raglan Road & will book Paddlefish when the date opens up. (Staying at Saratoga, so good time to check out more DS restaurants)
I donāt think we are doing any super hard to gets, we have already done all the ones we have wanted to do in previous trips. So, Iāll just wait for 67 days out to book.
