- Typical (median) walk-up wait quoted: 60 min
- Usually open: 11 AM–1 PM, 4 PM–6 PM ET

Tips that follow from the data
- Book at the start of your booking window first; openings are a backup, not a plan.
- Check around 12 PM–3 PM Eastern, when most openings appeared.
- Be flexible on party size and time — an opening is often a single slot.
- Let an alert do the refreshing: openings are snapped up quickly.

When can I book Yak & Yeti Restaurant, and is there a cancellation fee?
Walt Disney World dining reservations open 60 days before your date at 6:00 AM Eastern in My Disney Experience. Many Walt Disney World table-service restaurants list a cancellation policy with a per-person fee for a no-show or a late cancellation; the restaurant’s own policy is shown when you book.
How we measure this
SupaPark continuously checks Walt Disney World dining availability. An "opening" is logged when a restaurant that was showing no bookable time shows one again; repeated readings of the same state are not double-counted. Counts are what our collectors saw, not every cancellation that happened — a slot that opened and was booked between checks is missed, so the true number is at least this high. Times are when we saw the opening, Eastern time. Window: Sep 21, 2026–Oct 20, 2026.
