Notre Dame visit: Comprehensive resource on how to get your free ticket !

Forum member Lynn from Western Washington found this Reddit thread that is absolutely chock-full of detailed information on how to visit Notre Dame with the new reservation system — what time to get online, how many tickets you can get, etc.

She shared it as a response to another Forum member's question, but it is so helpful that I thought it would be great to give it its own “home.”

Thanks again to Lynn for finding this wonderful resource !!

I will just add one note to the author's info about the reservations system opening up at midnight Paris time (although she says that there are some problems this weekend).

I have been checking the reservations when I get up at 5 am or 6 am (cats! ), and consistently every morning when I look at that time, it offers me tickets for that very same morning — 9 am, 9:30 am, sometimes up to 10 am). So that is another thing to keep in mind. If you don't have an office job preventing you from snagging one of those same-morning reservations, it might be “just the ticket” for you!

I follow Adventures with Sarah and she has been saying that it seems to work to go before opening (9?) and wait in a line that moves fairly quickly. I believe she said 15 minutes. Yet, when possible, I'd opt for a ticket if obtainable.
