Is anybody else seeing random limited restaurant availability for these dates? I've got several clients that I'm trying to make reservations for, and these two dates are super problematic for several specific restaurants including Trattoria al Forno, Chef Mickey's, Topolino's Terrace, and more. The days before and after have availability, so it's quite strange. Just throwing it out into the Disboards universe to see if anyone else is seeing the same thing!
 
Does the trip dates cover those dates? I can only book up to March 24 with AP

Yep, they have long trips. For onsite resort guests, people can potentially book through April 3 rn. So to book for March 28 and 29, people only have to be staying 4-5 nights.
 
These are resort based restaurants. They are supposedly holding back some inventory for guests at those resorts.

Which I totally get. But it just seems so random to me that these are the only two dates impacted as far as I can tell. There is availability before and after these two dates, and it's been like this for days now.
 
I'm booking for around the same dates and am having difficulty with Storybook and Topolino's, currently. That being said, I just returned from a trip last week and had some dining alerts in place - I had a TON of notifications as we got closer to the trip, so, I'm not terribly concerned that they won't become available at some point.
 
I booked for those dates last week and had no problems. Hopefully they can get reservations closer to when they arrive.

You got Chef Mickey's, Topolino's, and/or Trattoria for March 28 or 29? I've been checking for these dates for days and haven't seen anything. I don't know how I missed that!!

I could be wrong, but I don't think the resort guest reservations are necessarily for guests of those particular resorts. They just hold some back for onsite guests period.

I'm not sure they've said. How are those dispersed? I really don't think we know much about it at all. Just experienced for myself when scheduling my own (onsite) trip recently that resort based restaurants were much harder to get.
 
Topolino's is simply the must-have currently for either breakfast or dinner.

We had a beast of a time getting that in fall of '21. In fact, we ended up grabbing the only dinner ADR we saw within minutes after our window opened and planned other ADRs around it. Never did find breakfast there.

I suspect both meals there have become even harder to get as many as I see posting that they're having difficulty finding either.

Can only wish you good luck.

Yeah I've been booking dining reservations almost every day for about a decade, often for 70 days out if my client has a longer trip. I just noticed, in particular, that March 28 and 29 had zero availability for a few particular restaurants, even at the 70-day mark. The surrounding days weren't a problem, just these two days. I've been checking at least three times a day since then, and there's still nothing. I was just curious if anybody was seeing a similar issue with these days.
 
Topolino's for breakfast or for dinner? So sorry for all of the questions...I'm just trying to see if there's a pattern here! TIA!
We do have Topolino's breakfast but it was earlier in the reservations.. so within the first 10 days and we got that on my first day booking window. So I am not sure if they were delayed or not.

Thank you!!
 
Topolino‘s showed no reservations available for the 28th and 29th this morning at 6am. However, I just checked and it looks like a bunch are available now.
 
Must've been the delight that Disney tech nearly always is.

As in whatever you want, you ain't getting it today. Maybe tomorrow. Then again, maybe not.
 
Update for anyone following and waiting: Chef Mickey's ADRs were finally loaded into the system for 3/28 and 3/29.
