Still waiting on the email about my July 28th YC reservation.

Pray for me, I’m going start calling, yet again.

I also received the email. But I’m confused. Because I already had booked our replacement reservations a couple weeks ago. So did my son.

I suppose it is simply another case of sending out emails en masse without regard to actual details of any given party. But I’m wondering why they aren’t making it clear that Disney Springs locations may already be booked on-line at 60 days out, and for Walt Disney World RESORT DINING locations, you have to call.

If I have to call back tomorrow I’m going to lose my sanity! I’m currently on hold with DVC member services for a silly issue that I shouldn’t need to call them for. :woman_facepalming: And, why are they only giving us one day’s notice?!? I’ve been too non-committal towards this trip to even consider reworking dining plans. :laughing:

I got through after only dialing seven times and I was on hold for less than 30 seconds before talking to a CM. All told, took less than 20 minutes.

I got moved from a standard room at the YC to a studio at the BC.

We are finding that our plans are way more loose than they were :wink:

A couple of our restaurants aren’t opening, and rather than shoehorn something in in their place we are going to go with the flow.

Good luck. I hear finding a master to teach you how to do it is near impossible. They’re always on the move.

And they closed Turtle Talk, so Crush is right out. :frowning:

(upshot: I don’t think the DVC lines are as swamped as the normal Disney resort lines, so DVC peeps should have a slightly better time making their reservations?)

Crush?

What?

You lost me, bro.

Isn’t that the turtle’s name? Crush. A master of “going with the flow”…specifically the current?

…so you can’t ask him at Turtle Talk.
