When do Walt Disney World dining reservations open?
Off-site guests: Each dining date opens 60 days before that date, from 6:00 AM ET. Disney resort hotel guests: Disney resort guests can book dining for the whole stay (up to 10 days past check-in) at once, 60 days before check-in, from 6:00 AM ET.
How does the 60+10 rule work for a resort guest?
When the 60-day mark for the check-in date arrives, a guest staying at a Disney resort hotel can book dining for the whole stay, up to 10 days past check-in, at once. Dates more than 10 days past check-in open one at a time, 60 days before each date, like everyone else's. The calculator shows those extra dates separately.
When can my clients buy Lightning Lane Multi Pass at Walt Disney World?
Disney resort guests can buy Lightning Lane Multi Pass for the whole stay 7 days before check-in, from 7:00 AM ET. Off-site guests can buy Lightning Lane Multi Pass 3 days before each park day, from 7:00 AM ET.
When do Disneyland Resort dining reservations open?
Each dining date opens 60 days before that date. RopeDrop doesn't have an opening time on file for Disneyland, so the calculator gives the date only.
Does the calculator cover park reservations, final payment or Single Pass?
No. It covers Walt Disney World dining and Lightning Lane Multi Pass and Disneyland dining. Lightning Lane Single Pass, park reservations, final payment dates, Disneyland Lightning Lane and Premier Pass, and resorts outside Walt Disney World and Disneyland aren't included, so check those with Disney.
Can RopeDrop track these dates for all my clients?
Yes. In the free Pro Planner beta, each trip you build for a client gets these windows automatically: a Booking runs list of what opens today, this week and later, and a calendar feed for Google, Apple or Outlook. The beta covers 3 active clients at a time (leads and archived clients don't count).
