Hoop dee doo mid October

[Melanie415]

Did anyone else have problems booking HDDR 180+? For a 6:15 showing? I was up at midnight (HST) to book when my 180 days opened and it was my 3rd priority booking and I could only book a 4pm for 180+ 7 days. I was really surprised I couldn't get it and wondered if it is really That Popular or if I just picked a bad week for it. I did get CRT and. Pre park opening for Chef Mickey's but have been unable to get HDDR for 6:15 on our "off" day at the waterpark and then HDDR. Kind of bummed because we will only have 3 1/2 hours at the waterpark b4 we have to head back to BLT to make it to the 4pm show and not sure if it is worth the waterpark upgrade price for a little over 3 hours. Do you think reservations will become available at a later date?

There have been several recent posts about the fact that the 6:15 show is not available to book.
This has been the case since mid September.
I called on Monday and the CM put me on hold while she investigated. She came back after several minutes and agreed she could see what I had said, but that there was no explaination in their system. Her only advice was to keep checking.
Somethings up, but nobody seems to know what.

My guess is conference bookings. October is conference-heavy, and not just Gartner.

I had this same issue yesterday AM. The CM I spoke with stepped away and said she could not explain it but the 6:15 is just not showing up. She was going to send a message to someone about it but she too just said keep checking back. It's odd. I looked again this AM and nothing. Not sure if we will book the 4 or just wait and see....

What about September bookings then?. When I called CM could see that it was not available to book, not that it was sold out

Conferences don't explain complete unavailability for over 6 week ((and counting) of only the 6:15 show. It's either a programming glitch or something operational is in flux.

I totally agree. I was hoping some FW experts would have some insight. Or even someone at The Fort ask at Pioneer Hall. Somethings up.

Also, I tried booking the later reservation and all that was available was 2nd tier category for my entire stay

Has anyone been able to book 6:15 yet? It's not available for the entire week of my 11/4-11/12 trip

I have a 6:15 Cat 1 for October 12th. I didn't check for other days availability during that week... Good luck!

So happy to have found this thread! I was up at 6 am on the dot yesterday and had the same problem!! I was so surprised... I know HDD gets great reviews but since its on the expensive side I didn't think I would have a problem getting it as long as I was up at 6 180 +10 days before! I was looking for Sunday November 13. I booked the 4 pm but I think I am going to cancel and do O'hana instead. Its our last day at MK and I am not trying to leave that early for dinner. I'm going to keep checking for the 6:15 though... very strange! Good luck to all!

Any updates on this? The second showing seems to be missing for November, as well.

I had to call. Got the 6:15 no problem that way. But online, yeah, I also was getting either 4 pm or the later. Not sure what was going on.

What date did you get this ADR for?

I've been checking everyday...I called the reservation line today and the cast member told me it was odd about the 6:15 reservation. She put me on hold so she could check something. The days I am looking for October 16-22, weren't available but were only showing a "few" reservations for the 6:15 show and she couldn't figure out why it wasn't available for more reservations.She said keep checking.....

I just called for 6:15 on 11/11. Not available to book. CM had no idea why.

 

[crabbygal902]

I booked at the 180 day mark for Oct 30th, and 6:15 was not available to me either. Category 1 was not available by the afternoon 180 days out, either.

So glad to find this thread! We have been trying to book the 6:15 show for October 23 since the booking window opened, and there has never been availability. In fact, my husband swears he booked for 6:15 originally and was moved to the 8:30 show! His theory is that they are holding back the 6:15 show until the less popular shows are at a certain capacity. I hope that show becomes available, who wants to eat dinner at 4:00?
