BOG reservation

[luulu1999]

I am freaking out a little, i can make my reservation for BOG on Monday we want dinner and its the only big place were planning on doing...do i need to be online at the exact time they are avail? I have never had to do this we have never been to WDW but i am looking at days right before our trip that are available now and it keeps saying none avail!! Is it going to be impossible for me to get a reservation for Oct 10

Be logged in and ready to go at 6am. If you're staying on property book from your last date for the best chance. If you can only book 180 select dinner instead of a specific time (this is really true in any case) and take what you can get. If you are a party of four or less you have a shot. If you are a bigger group and can't find availability, break your party up under two different accounts.

If you can't secure a reservation, subscribe to the cancellation threads here and also check the site multiple times a day. People cancel all the time!

I tried to get Oct 13th this morning and it wasn't available. I have a large party though (party of 9) and it wasn't important enough for me to see if I could split my party up. It's also a MNNSHP night, so I think that might make a difference. If you are a smaller party I think it's easier to get a reservation from stalking.

I check in on the 8th, so my 180+10 opened up today.

If you check in on the 10th, your dates will come open on Monday for your entire trip if you are on site. If so, I would try to get a BOG dinner as far out (so if your last night is the 15th , try that night first) etc. You have the best chances of getting it for the last trip of your day instead of early in your trip.

@luulu1999 keep checking EVERYDAY I got a reservation for 8 about 6 weeks out from my trip it can happen.

Also if you want other meals look into booking them now you can always change them but character meals book up quick too. Also learn about FP+ before your 60 day window.

Happy planning!

Thank you, I have another question....If we do the Rainforest Café at AK do we have to have an AK ticket to be able to eat there?? And what is the difference between that one and the one downtown

 

[kingken]

rainforest is se[perate from AK so dont need a ticket slightly bigger than downtown but pretty much same
