Has anyone had success booking dining? I mean......for the love of churros!

I am starting to think we may be in a line that goes nowhere, meaning we are just queuing to get back to Disney's site and once it's up we won't have any advantage on people who get on later this morning.

Unfortunately because we are expecting some big things, we have multiple devices ready, the demand get worse. Meanwhile, whoever is going to push the magic button for the releases is still in bed snoring away and nothing has actually happened yet.

This is exactly how it works. No one has been placed in the actual queue yet (if there will be one). This is just the queue before the queue. Being on the site early puts you at no greater advantage than people who get on just before the queue opens. Everyone that is on when the queue opens is randomly assigned a place in the queue.
 

This is such a joke Disney. The Disney experience is becoming Six Flags level here.

I understand the frustration too, but being a season pass holder to Six Flags, there is still no comparison to me lol. Universal Orlando holds an argument for me though!
 
The last few “new reservation” drops have been between 6-10am. They don’t go live in the middle of the the night the way the “rolling” ones do.

And as mentioned, this isn’t the queue yet. When the queue goes live, everyone in the wait room gets randomly distributed into the queue.

This is how the releases have been for everything. But with dining, we don’t get a time at all, which is super annoying.
 
I would be very interested to know if anyone has been able to actually get in yet. I have been on the thank you for waiting page since 6:15 AM PST.
 
Ohhhhh I GOT ONE FOR TRADER SAM'S! I was able to access things through the app and boom. Got one for 5 p.m. for the first day of our trip (Aug. 24).

FWIW I am still "on hold" on my other phone and desktop, but had the app up in my work phone and kept checking, all of a sudden Trader Sam's appeared just a minute ago.

Sigh, THIS IS WHAT HAPPENED TO ME on the Blue Bayou release day. My app never worked. 😩

My app keeps telling me that reservations are only available on the website. Happy someone got something

My app is still directing to the website for dining reservations :(
 
Got in via the app by stubborness LOL !

Got Trader Sam's for 8/25 , 9/09 , 9/11 before Oogie Boogie , and 9/14.

Plaza Inn secured for 8/26 and 9/10 - depends on what day works better.
Now if I could just get in the website for the dining packages..

I had the app open on my phone from like 3 hours ago and never closed it (left it on the page for my date where you pick the time). I guess that kept me in the system. I just kept hitting the time to refresh availability every so often then it finally appeared. Wasn't sure if it would let me get through the whole process but it appears to have worked.
