My family thinks I am a freak when it comes to planning, so I'm turning to my fellow planners for this question.
We are going for a 12 day trip in May/June 2012. Just our family of four the first week, and my sister, bil and niece will join us for the last five days. I have a spreadsheet of the daily parks and restaurants we want. 180 days is Nov. 30th, so plenty of time to plan. But now I have a couple of coworkers who are trying to book resorts for the same time and are not having any luck. This makes me worry about the chances of getting any of our ADRs for DDP.
Now to my question: what kind of back up plans do you make when choosing ADRs? How do you handle it if on day 180 the majority of what you want is not available? I know I will have to go back to book ADRs for days 11 and 12, which concerns me, too.
More details: we have very picky eaters, not just the kids, in our group. And, it's my sister's family's first trip, so of course we want them to experience the good stuff.
I'm really just looking for any advice you want to share. I'm not happy unless I'm worrying about something on our next Disney trip!
