Does Disney release reservations throughout the day?

You'll need to plan your visit in advance, but you are limited to 180 days in advance at this time. The reservations are released on a rolling basis, and new reservations out go live at 8 a.m. Pacific Time each day. The earlier you book, the better park availability there is.
