BOG Dinner this fall-how many days past 180

[Lisa F]

So all this stuff that is gone at 180 days is still there at 180+? Can't book yet but going in December and really wanting BoG dinner at 4:30 or so on a MVMCP day... wondering if I have any chance at all of getting it (staying on site). it is not one of the rumored free dining weeks.

The farther out in your trip the better your odds.

Im fairly convinced that it doesn't matter if the time you're going is "rumored" to be a FD week or not. Many (not "all", but many) of these people who are snatching up ADR's in hopes of FD have zero plans of actually going to Disney unless there is a FD promotion. Therefore, they have nothing to lose by making ADR's "just in case" it is offered. They go in thinking "well, that's the week that works for me" so they go ahead and make the ADR's with hope. If it doesn't materialize, they simply cancel the ADR and are out nothing.

Well I have a while before my ADR window opens so I was kind of assuming actual dates would be released before early June so there would no longer be any speculation and if my dates are not among the dates it would quiet down the demand a bit. Still getting kind of nervous!

Can't say anything about the Christmas party, but I'd I got an ADR on the night of the Halloween party for BOG (before the party starts), so it's definitely possible to get an ADR on party nights at 180+

Hi all, just reporting back as I could do ADRs at 6am today for the first half of my trip today (split stay). I did not get the day I wanted for dinner (day 3 of our trip), but I was able to book on day 4 (non-party day) and day 5 (party day). I am not sure how or whether I will change around our schedule...and am still hoping for day 3, so I just booked ADRs on both day 4 and day 5 and will cancel the ones we don't need once I get it figured out. If I can get day 7 (day 3 of the second hotel stay) when I do the rest of our ADRs on Thursday that would also work.

Either.

Online at 6am and phone at 7am EST.

I have asked you questions on my past trips and you are always so helpful. Could you please help me one more time. Its been a few years since we have been to disney and I can't remember the dates to book dining. I'm not sure about 180 days or 180+ 10........... We arrive at the poly on 7/31. When can I go online to book my reservations? Thanks for any help you can give!

I'm not the poster you directed this question to but I can answer it. If your check-in day is 7/31, the first day you can book ADRs is 2/1. On 2/1, you can book ADRs for up to 10 days of your trip.
