It may depend on the day you are trying to book for. You can only book for each individual day 27 days in advance. The whole week does not open up at once. There's a very helpful thread somewhere on here...maybe someone can provide a link. Good luck!

Do you have an AP or are you booking under an MDE that is associated with an AP? If so, you may have to create a new MDE account, link your room reservation with that account and log back into the BOG FP site under the new MDE.

Probably the Dining Reservations subforum on the Restaurants board.

Yes and Yes...you can pre-order, but you still go up to a kiosk and verify it before you sit down, so you can always change your mind. We pre-ordered, but when we scanned our band, nothing showed up so we had to order again anyways! At least it was quick since we all already knew what we wanted!

I just want to verify that the only way to get a FP for lunch is to wait 27 days out and then try to get one. Also on site guests only can do this correct? We are going down mid March and staying on property but my son will be with his girlfriends family and they are not on property so in effect they are locked out. Do I have this right?

Yes. They will not be able to book. Only on property guests can book the FP for lunch. You will have to input your reservation number and it will only accept the names on the reservation. So if you have 3 in your room, it will book 3. You can not add names or numbers. If they were on property they would have to book with their own reservation and try to overlap with you, assuming you both got through.

But not even on property guests are guaranteed to get through the system. I have booked the FP 5-6 times and every time my window did not open until 7 days prior to booking dates. The one time I got the email in that @27 day window I immediately went to the site and it said no FP available. I honestly think it is perpetually random as to what will happen.
