A number of Disney Springs restaurants that aren’t Disney owned and operated have been using OpenTable for some time now.

Additionally, at Disney’s Vero Beach Resort, the Wind & Waves Grill will be available for booking via OpenTable.

While this may change, the main difference between OpenTable and booking a traditional Advance Dining Reservation directly through Disney is that OpenTable doesn’t charge guests to cancel a reservation, nor does it expect guests to supply credit card information.

There are some other slight differences, for example, the booking window is much shorter on OpenTable, at a little over a month than the 180-day booking window through Disney.
