Routine Maintenance to Take Place for Disney World Reservations

If you are planning to make Disney World reservations soon, you will want to know that routine maintenance will make that impossible. Here are the details.

Planning your Disney World Vacation

Disney World is not like other vacation destinations. There is a lot of planning that goes into it! Everything from crowd calendars and resorts to researching restaurants and park strategies mean you may be spending months figuring everything out.

While resort reservations can be booked up to several months in advance, most reservations can be booked 60 days ahead of your trip. This includes dining, Enchanting Extras (like Savi’s Workshop), and more.

Many popular restaurants and experiences will book up quickly, so it is best to book them as close as you can to your 60 day window. However, Disney is going to make this all a bit harder very soon.

Routine Maintenance

A planned outage will take place tomorrow evening at 11:00 pm ET. Thankfully, the outage will not last long. It is expected to resume at 3:00 am ET on Monday. This is only a period of 4 hours.

While this is in the middle of the night for people on Eastern Time, those in different time zones will want to note it may take place in the morning or later in the evening. Keep this in mind as you check for reservations (including all those special offers that just dropped).

Here is the announcement:

From 11:00 p.m. ET Sunday, Jan. 7 until approximately 3:00 a.m. ET Monday, Jan. 8, we will be performing routine maintenance on our Walt Disney World Resort booking systems. During this time, Walt Disney World Resort tickets and reservations will be unavailable to book or modify. We appreciate your patience.
