Well, we finally nabbed a Chef Mickey’s breakfast reservation the day before we hoped to eat there this past week, as has been our luck with reservations throughout covid. If you’re struggling to get reservations, keep in mind that the day or two prior to your anticipated dining date is an awesome chance to check [...]
When booking dining reservations lately I’ve had my share of woes since restaurant options are so limited and those that are open are operating at reduced capacity. So similar to many others I’m sure, I’ve had to repeatedly check the app in the weeks leading up to our trip to see if anything opens up [...]
Since our trip back in August 2020, I have found myself attempting to explain the Skyliner hours to countless people planning Disney trips. Their questions almost always pertain to timing of reservations at Topolinos and whether they will be able to access Riviera via the Skyliner at certain hours. The occasional question also pops up [...]
February 22nd Update: Just announced! Disney Jr. Breakfast at Hollywood and Vine will be opening on March 22nd! This is the 3rd character breakfast option. Hopefully a sign of more good things to come. Fingers crossed (because I don't honestly give a hoot about Disney Jr. characters, sorry not sorry) https://jilteddisneybride.com/2021/02/23/breaking-news-new-character-dining/ We are BIG fans [...]
One quick interesting thing to note when making dining reservations these days.... it would appear you have some leeway to play around with your party size a little bit if it helps you grab the reservation you are looking for.

For those who were following my post linked below and had similar issues with challenging advanced dining reservations, particularly at character dining restaurants, I have an update now that our trip has arrived. https://jilteddisneybride.com/2020/10/07/disney-dining-frustrations/ Similar to many others, we were able to suddenly get all the remaining reservations we were looking for on a certain [...]
Update 11/3: This morning I was able to easily book any remaining days I was looking for at Topolinos and Hollywood and Vine during my December stay. Any meals that were unavailable yesterday opened up today. It’s worth giving it a look today! Update 10/14: a bunch of availability has opened up at Hollywood & [...]
A lot of people have taken a sigh of relief now that there are no fastpasses to book in advance, interpreting this as a break from Disney trips that they believe typically require a ton of stressful upfront planning. Ignoring the fact that this is silly because Fastpass booking day is totally the most exciting [...]
Nothing is sadder than waking up on the last day of a Disney trip (ok, plenty of things are sadder... especially this year... but you know what I mean). I was pretty anxious about this check out day given how much Copper was relying on his long afternoon naps in the room every day. I [...]
I wanted to separate this from my general trip report because this would have been super helpful to me in my trip planning this time around, so maybe it will help others. (This is based on our experience this week at Disney while staying at Boardwalk and frequenting the parks/other resorts via the Skyliner). With [...]
