PS calling: 5 day trip = call 5 times?! About This Page:

[lindadarrall]

I've already admitted I'm new at this...

Do I make one call on one day for all my PS requests for our 5-day stay, or must I call 90 days before each of those 5 days (ie call once for Monday's meals, and call the next day for Tuesday's meals...)

Thanks -- Linda (137 days and counting!)

Unless you are trying to get one of the Princess breakfasts (need to call exactly 90 days for those) or another hard-to-get PS, I'd wait until the last day and do all your PSs at once.

I agree, I usually try to make them all at the same time, so I wait until the last day. It's hard to wait though!

Fortunately, you're asking this question well in advance of your 90-day mark. Good job. From what I've seen, it depends on a couple factors. First, what meals/activities are you trying to get PS's for? Cindy's, Illumination Cruise, etc. If it's a hot ticket, you gotta call asap. Second factor, what's your personality? I'm a freaked-out-with-worry, major type-A person. I will have to make one call for each day or else I'd be worried about not getting what I want. If you're a bit less nervous, one call for all might work.

Maybe you can post a list of the PS's you want and one of the experts here can give you a better idea.

That's a good idea. When we booked for our May trip, the only ones I tended to worry about phoning up for at exactly 90 days were the character meals. Apart from that, I just made a couple of sets of calls - because it's an international call from there, so the fewer calls I have to make, the less money I spend.

If you can give us details of what you're trying to get, then we'll give you a bit more advice.

I'm just a planner girl, so I always call 90 days out no matter what, which means I call everyday. But, I like to call them!

If your going during a busy season call 90 days out. If it's a value season (less busy) you could probably make one call and get everything you want.

The first three times we stayed for an extended period of time I made my PS all at once just a few weeks before and never had trouble getting what I wanted. But this time, since we are going during Thanksgiving, I decided to go ahead and call every day so I would get exactly what I wanted for our Thanksgiving dinner. I never had problems calling a few weeks before even when we went between Christmas and New Years Eve. But I think from now on I'll call every day because it's nice to have that done as soon as possible.
