Big Update: Booking Disney Dining Just Got Easier!

Planning your next Disney vacation just became a lot simpler—especially when it comes to scoring those must-have dining reservations!

Walt Disney World and Disneyland have rolled out exciting updates to the My Disney Experience app and the Disneyland app, making it easier than ever to find and book dining reservations. These guest-focused improvements are also available on the web at DisneyWorld.com and Disneyland.com, helping you make the most of your next visit, no matter how you like to explore the parks.

🥇 Must-Eat Spots Just Got Easier to Find

Looking for that special reservation at a fan-favorite restaurant? Now you can view all available dining dates at a glance using an easy-to-read calendar! Just select your dining location and party size—available reservations will be highlighted with a green dot so you can snag the perfect spot.

📅 For the Type-A Planners

If you love to plan every detail in advance, this update is a dream come true. The new expanded search feature lets you view availability for all dining locations across multiple dates—rather than being limited to just one location at a time.

Here’s how:

• Use the tabs at the top of the screen to jump between days within your search range.

• Customize your preferred dining time by adjusting the slider to narrow the range down to the hour.

Pro tip:

• At Disneyland Resort, all guests can book dining reservations 60 days in advance.

• At Walt Disney World, guests staying at a Disney Resort hotel can book for their entire length of stay (up to 10 nights) starting 60 days before check-in.

🌴 For the Laid-Back Travelers

Prefer to go with the flow (or follow your cravings)? The updated app makes same-day reservations and join-the-waitlist options a breeze!

You can now:

• Search by theme park, nearby resort, Disney Springs (Walt Disney World), or Downtown Disney (Disneyland).

• Filter by Disney Dining Plan eligibility—including which locations accept dining credits and how many are required.

📸 New Feature: Media Galleries at Walt Disney World

Whether you're a planner or a spontaneous foodie, these updates are here to take the stress out of dining planning and make your trip even more magical. Be sure to update your app, explore the new tools, and get ready to taste your way through the parks!
