Also when trying to check in online from my Mac using the Safari browser, I got a page can't be displayed error. So I switched to my WinTel Laptop and using IE I was able to do both my online check in and book my ADR.
    I guess the moral of this little story is the system is up and running and it works, unless you are trying it from Mac's favorite browser. I don't have IE on the Mac so I don't know if it all works in that browser.

    But, I did start them using IE from another computer. I wonder if that if the difference? I had to cancel two and re-book one of them after I made the initial bookings.

    Ursula and AD,
    After you booked your dining, is there a screen to print a confirmation so you have proof of the reservation?

I had absolutely no problem witht he last version, as a matter of fact, i'm trying to go into the same time period to add a few things with no luck!
