What time can Disney reservations be made?

The reservation window opens around 5:45 a.m. ET each day (the reservation hotline opens up at 7 a.m. ET). This will take you to another page that lists all of the restaurants on property.



For the 2026 season, Walt Disney World dining reservations and "Enchanting Extras" (like lightsaber building or spa treatments) officially open at 6:00 AM Eastern Time daily. These reservations can be made up to 60 days in advance. If you are staying at a Disney Resort hotel, you receive a significant "60+10" perk, meaning you can book for your entire stay (up to 10 days) starting 60 days before your check-in date. A crucial tip for 2026: while 6:00 AM is the "official" time, many experienced planners find that some restaurant availability begins to populate the system as early as 5:45 AM ET, so it pays to be logged into the My Disney Experience app or website a few minutes early. Furthermore, for high-demand experiences like the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique, some slots have been known to appear right at midnight ET on the 60-day mark. Because the most popular spots like Space 220 or Cinderella’s Royal Table can sell out within minutes, having your payment method already linked to your Disney account is essential for a fast checkout.
