Getting BOG is ridiculous

Where do you find cancellation threads?

I need to cancel a 10:30 lunch ressie for April 7th

I'm also trying to move a few breakfast ressies to earlier times but I'm not holding out too much hope.

I've considered signing up, but can you explain what their ADR finder is like, and how the ADR finder is any different from the one on the Disney website? I'm actually pleasantly surprised how nice the Disney website is for all these reservations!

Touring Plans searches for you, all day long, and sends you a text with a link to the dining site so you can reserve it as soon as it finds the reservation. I've gotten every reservation I've put in there

sounded interesting. Maybe I have not had enough coffee but I cannot create an account without supplying a credit card. And you need an account to use reservation finder.

Within the Disney Restaurants forum (where this thread is located), look at the very top and you'll see Disney Dining Reservations. In that forum, there are cancellation threads sorted by month.

I've been watching the April thread since last year and I haven't received a single alert this week...and there is a ton of activity.

I have been trying to get lunch at BOG for April 5th, 7th or 8th and am having the same experience. We ate lunch there on our last spring break trip two years ago and loved the experience. We were fortunate to snag an FP for it which made it so nice. I wish both of us luck!

Check out the April Cancellation board...there's a post from yesterday where someone booked almost a dozen BOG reservations with the hopes of going, but they apparently never had a trip planned. And I wonder why I can get a reservation!?!? Unfortunately, there are no lunches available.

I thought Disney had stopped various companies from doing this?

I'm subscribed to Touring Plans and don't see this option available anymore.

I had to use the 180+10 days reservation option over the phone to get a BOG dinner in mid-September. I tried checking at 6am EST on the 180 day point for my trip to get other bookings and nothing was available.

I couldn't navigate to it on their site, but google pulled it up. https://touringplans.com/walt-disney-world/reservation-finder

I'm another one trying to get a BOG dinner on 4/8. I have one at 4:15 pm, but we have a CRT reservation at 2:45, and somehow I don't think we'll be able to eat again at 4! So I'm hoping to get a late night dinner and then I can release the 4:15 one.

Thank you! I see you need to have an account to use this but I cannot find how yo create account without a credit card.

Edited - found it!

My 180+10 started today. First thing I did was try booking BOG for dinner during our 6 day trip and I can't get a reservation for any of my days for dinner. I have never seen it this bad before. Has anyone been able to book a dinner reservation at BOG during the week of 9/24 through 9/29?

Our 180 opening today and I was able to get BOG dinner for our last night Oct 1, first time I tried. So they may be opening up more right now just wanted to give heads ip

So maybe September is really the problem. Ugh. It is getting rather silly.

Totally agree! There is not a single day in September showing more than 4-6 pm!!

I really think so. I imagine it is all the free dining hopefuls booking up what would probably be available. We had tons of availability for family of 5 for dinner,breakfast or lunch five months out, but it was for summer.

September and October both have a lot of early closings for Halloween Party. This limits the number of ADR's available

I was able to get a 4:35 Sept 26 for 6 guests at BOG on the first try of my 180 day window. I was rather surprised but happy for the pixie dust.

Thank you! I see you need to have an account to use this but I cannot find how yo create account without a credit card.

How did you create the account without paying? I'd like to just get the basic access. Thanks!

Now that I have an account I cannot go back and look but if I remember correctly on the page to create an account there is a button to create a BASIC account. That is free. I think it was on the bottom right.

And it works! I got an alert for a BOG dinner the last week of September. Thankfully I was holding my phone when I got the text so I was able to react quickly! Very pleased!!

I just got an 11:45 lunch for Saturday!! My girls are going to be so excited!

My only concern now is that we have a BTM fast pass window that opens at 11:30. How early can we get in the FP line? And/or what is the grace period for BOG reservations? I'm willing to give up the FP if I need to. Tried to change the time, but the earliest available was 5:30 and I'm not sure how long we will be in the park on Saturday.
