Disney App Updates Make Booking Dining Reservations Easier Than Ever 

As we continue to listen to guests, we’ve made updates at Disneyland Resort and Walt Disney World to make planning your vacation simpler. Now, it’s easier than ever to find dining reservations for whatever you’re craving on a whim or visit that bucket list location you’ve been dreaming about for your next Disney trip. 

These features improve on guest-favorite enhancements to simplify the planning experience, and are now available on the Disneyland app* for Disneyland and the My Disney Experience app for Disney World, or on the web at Disneyland.com or DisneyWorld.com. Learn how to make the most of your next visit with these new features, no matter how your crew chooses to explore all the dining Disney Parks have to offer.

So, you’ve got one specific dining location at the top of your family’s must-do list. Now, searching on the app makes it simple to see all dates with available reservation timeslots at any individual restaurant on a handy calendar. Select your dining location and party size to see an overview of which dates have reservations available, indicated with a green dot. Then, plan your vacation accordingly. This is a great feature for guests looking to dine at some of our most popular locations — even those hard-to-snag dining spots. Bucket list dining reservation: acquired! 

For character dining experiences, look for the Mickey icon and a label on available reservation times.

You’re the one in the family who has an hour-by-hour spreadsheet in the works immediately after your trip is booked. Trip planning gurus, this update has your name all over it. The expanded search by date range allows you to view availability for ALL dining locations across multiple dates, rather than only one location across a date range. Use the tabs at the top to look at different dates within your search range.  

We’ve also updated the time range search to find more specific times that fit with your plans. To customize the time, move the slider in your search to select your range down to the hour. 

Remember: Disneyland Resort guests can start booking dining reservations up to 60 days in advance. If you’re staying with us at a Disney Resort hotel at Disney World, start booking 60 days in advance for your entire length of stay (up to a 10-night stay). 

Your group lets pixie dust (and your stomachs) guide where you go next at the parks. Now when you search for same-day dining reservations, easily join a walk-up list or place a mobile order to-go at Disney World table service locations that offer it. Improved sorting and filtering means you can search by theme park and nearby resort areas to narrow down your options by location, or filter by Disney Springs at Disney World or Downtown Disney District at Disneyland. If you’re using a Disney Dining plan at Disney World, there’s a filter for you, too! Filter by which locations accept credits and how many you’ll need. 

Cool new feature alert: Whether you need to see what your menu options look like or get a general overview of the vibes, check out the new media gallery to get a visual sneak peek. Look for the ring around a location’s thumbnail photo to open the gallery (Disney World only). 

There’s nothing like a visit to a Disney park. Whether you’re celebrating everything the Disneyland Resort 70^th Celebration has to offer or experiencing all the fun of Cool Kid Summer at Walt Disney World, it’s easier than ever to experience dining in a way that works best for you and your family. Stay in-the-know with Disney Eats for the latest in what’s tasty, and be sure to download the Disneyland app or the My Disney Experience app (for Disney World) when you’re ready to start planning.
