Be Our Guest Lunch FastPass Thread [PLEASE read the FAQs in the first post!]

[ldrich19]

I was able to go and pick my days for BOG FP+. (going NOV 30-DEC 6).
It says -There are no FastPasses available. Please select a different day.

is this because I'm not within 27 days or there is actually none for that day?
I did check multiple days, they all said same. Thanks

It said that for me until I was 27 days out then the options showed up. Some people also get an e-mail from Disney around that time that invites them to try it.

I'm having trouble with this.

Our reservation is for 10/16 - 10/26. I'd like to make a FP+ reservation for 10/22, which should be (1) available to book now and (2) within the first seven days of our trip. Should be all set, right?

Except the site is making 10/14 - 10/20 available and that's it - so because 10/22 is over seven days in it isn't available to me. But we won't even be there on 10/14 and 10/15!!!

Has anyone had this happen to them? Any ideas?

I think people were saying that it only let's you book during the first 7 days of your trip as in it won't ever let you book further out but maybe someone else has experience? I was able to book mine for 10/22 today so maybe it's just not available yet since it's further than 27 days. Don't know why it's showing days earlier than you trip though since the earliest it shows me is the day I check in.

I didn't think it would let me. I tracked down my ressie number according to one of the examples. The first time I tried it I hit submit at bottom and it gave me an error. I tried it again and hit enter on my pc and it took me in. It pulls up my days and then the guests that are in my party, the the page with no dates available.
Thanks for help. I will keep trying, maybe a glitch?

The multiple days were for my trip that it showed. Only Nov 30-Dec 6. No other days were there to choose from.

Right, I totally expected to only see seven days - but I expected those days to start with 10/16 as it's the first day of our reservation! I'd be all set if it did that. However, it's starting with 10/14 and so the day I need isn't included as it's more than seven days after 10/14.

Ok need help from the experts. I know I saw the answer before but can no longer find it.

Went to BOG lunch with FP yesterday. Was awesome, as usual. Would like to book again for October 7th (staying 14 nights). I went in to book another lunch and it would only open until October 1st. Yes, one week I expected this so can wait a few days to book the 8th.

however, when looking just for fun one week out it was telling me there is NO availability at all!!! Is this right? All booked up? Or am I missing something?

Thanks for any and all tips.

Anyone?

Anyone?

The system won't let you make a second one until the day AFTER you use the first one. But it seems like the FP+ are booking faster. In the last week I have read one person said they could not get another FP+ and someone said they were able to book a 2nd one. I believe the 2nd day after your check in it will give you day 8 and 3rd day will give you day 9 of your reservation, so on and so forth... Does that make sense? So if your shooting for 10/7 then you should be able to 9/30? But, that's if there's availability?

Yeah it's the lack of availability that I find surprising. It was bound to happen eventually when the masses caught on. Already used my first one.

Used to be you could snag one same day!

Unfortunately, I'd say you're not missing anything, and it's likely that no passes are available at this point. I could not get a second one during my February visit, after using my first one. None to be had.

If you're able to keep checking, do so, plus keep refreshing the page that says "none available," as for whatever reason what slots are presented to you are variable, even when there are slots to choose from. Can't hurt.

It's because you're not within 27 days. The system uses "none available" as its default message.

Thanks so much, this is what I feared.

I think I want to preorder meals to make it faster, but a few quick questions about substitutions....can you make changes once you get there? Anyone know if you can substitute regular mashed potatoes instead of the mashed sweet potatoes for the kids meals? Also, do the kids meals still come with the cupcakes for dessert?

I'm not sure about the mashed potatoes but we were just there last week and no cupcake with kids meals. You can purchase a cupcake separately though. We didn't pre-order and had a FP+ and were ordering in no time! took us maybe 5 minutes tops. I'm sure though if you do pre-order you can make changes.

Each time I've been with DD I get her an adult meal. I know you're not supposed to, but I've always done it (both pre order and not) and haven't been told no. That way she gets a cupcake and a nice meal (usually the quinoa) and I don't have to share mine . YMMV

I really want an FP for lunch on our last day. I know that we can only have one reserved, so if I reserve it for our first day (just in case I can't get one the last day), will it let me reserve it for the last day and cancel the first day at the same time when that date opens up?

yes, as long as the last day is within 7 days of your checkin date.
