BOG - finally

[ILoveMyDVC]

After weeks of randomly trying several times a day + touring plans tools, I finally got lunch for 7 in April.

Keep trying - you never know

Yay! Lunch is delicious! Enjoy!

I was just thinking today.. does anyone EVER cancel BOG lunch?? I have been stalking and trying for weeks for a cancellation.
We have been every year since it opened and I never have had such a problem getting a reservation there. I picked up Chef Mickey, Teppan, Sci-Fi after stalking but I just can't get this one
Congrats on your reservation!

That is fantastic! I've been feeling like a stalker of the reservation web site to get an earlier PPO for BOG and just signed up for the reservation finder. Glad to hear the success.

The reservation finder worked like a charm for me! It got me an 11:15am BOG lunch and then a better time at 11:30am. It's also helping me to slowly moving my Sci-Fi Dine-In dinner closer to dinner time - started at 4:25pm, now at 4:45. I'm hoping for a 5:15-5:30 time frame.

yeah, that reservation finder is awesome

I got a BOG lunch reservation for Easter Week a couple of weeks ago. I did try using the TP Reservation Finder, but had no luck. It found one BOG ADR for me after just 2 days. I ran downstairs to the computer the second I got the text and the ADR was already gone! I reset the Reservation Finder but also kept checking on my own. I finally snagged one on my own for 11:50. So psyched!

I also have a TP Reservation Finder set up for The Boathouse. I had a 5:00 PM dinner reservation that I wanted to move closer to 6:30 or 7:00. I've been able to move it to 5:30 through my own stalking. No texts from TP yet.

Go to opentable.com for that reservation for The Boathouse. Open Table is much better for getting reservations at Disney Springs.

I just did a mock search for The Boathouse for both Friday and Saturday night before Easter on there, and both were wide open from 6:30 through 8pm.

You are my new best friend!!!!! Thank you so much for this tip! I got a 6:30 reservation at The Boathouse for my date. I am so psyched! It was the last reservation I needed to tweak.

I just looked and BOG has a 12 for Mother's Day, we don't want that day, but was surprised it is open, everyday I find at least an opening, usually not for a day I want, but it leaves hope.

The reservation finder did not get the BOG despite having TWO requests. The reservation finder did get me `Ohana.

 

[Mrs. Ciz]

What is reservation finder?

It is on the touringplans.com website. You can create a free account at touring plans and put 2 requests at a time into the reservation finder. When their system finds the ADR you requested, it sends you a text alert so you can get online with WDW and book it. TP does not charge for this service.

What am I doing wrong I cannot find how to set up free account on touring plans?

Congrats on your reservation!

And I may have to cancel it - doubting I can get the entire party there on time. Stalking a different MK day now. I have 4/26.

I was able to score a Table for 7 at BOG Dinner 15 days out. Don't give up!!!

Were you able to get the reservation thru TP or calling/randomly checking website? I've had my TP tool running for a few days with nothing on BOG but had a few very late night ohana ressies that I can't unfortunately book with the little ones! Congrats on the score!

I've got a lunch, but I'd prefer a dinner, so I have the reservation finder set to search every night of my stay. I'm not so tied into things that I'm not willing to change up what park what day.

I suspect with the new movie it's going to get even more popular. If that's possible.

Oh no!! Good luck searching again! I need the week before Easter. That is probably why I am having such a problem getting a cancelation. The TP reservation finder hasn't hit once on this one
