These Will Be the Hardest Disney World Dining Reservations To Get in 2024

By 5 Comments

For those of you who love Disney World and love the FOOD that you can get at Disney World, it’s a really exciting time!

Welcome to Disney World!

The Disney Dining Plan (DDP) will return on January 9th, 2024, for those staying at Disney World hotels. Not only this, but Park Pass Reservations will no longer be required for most guests after this date. We expect these two things to make snagging reservations at fan-favorite dining locations harder. For most popular restaurants across Disney World property, Disney requires Advanced Dining Reservations (ADRs), which can be made up to 60 days in advance of your visit. Some of these restaurants will SERIOUSLY require you to wake up at 6AM on the 60-day mark to select your dining locations, or else your chances of grabbing a reservation are slim to none. If you’re wondering which restaurants you should be on your A-game in order to grab, then keep reading.
