No availability at 190-day mark?

[Vickis3js]

Definatly keep checking. Like I said the same thing happened to me for Christmas Eve at 190 days out. I kept checking with firefox and then again with IE and shortly after 11am everything was available. For some reason all of the restaurants are not loading. Don't give up though!

Keep on trying every 30 - 60 minutes today. When I was doing the same thing daily for our December trip I had one day that brought the exact same result - 17 available and 52 not available. Apparently there was some type of problem loading restaurants into the system for that day and it was not resolved until some time in the afternoon.

Hi all,
I am having the same problem. Today is my 190 mark for 12/30 and I just checked again and got the same 17 resturants. I went ahead and made a dinner reservation for Cape May. However, I am going to keep trying. Ithought maybe evrything had booked up, so I went back and checked my other dates and they had at least 52 matching resturants. What a weird problem!

I just searched for dinner on 12/30. Came up with 17 matching (two don't count because they are CRT and V&A) and 52 without availability.

My guess is that it's a glitch to the glitch, and stuff will open up in the next day or so. I can understand frustration that the rules seem to be changing all the time, but it shouldn't be too worrisome, because if you aren't getting it nobody else will either.

Happened to me too! Only affected today. Was hoping it was a glich. Thanks everyone!

True enough, but what's aggravating is that presumably all of these restaurants are going to become available at some random time, and if I'm not at my computer then, the slots can all fill up.

What's worse is that I'm going on a Scout trip later this week and will not have access to a computer for a few days, so if this problem continues for a few days, or if the same thing happens tomorrow, it may well mess up our plans.

If we weren't going during the busiest week of the year, I wouldn't be so concerned.

Incidentally, this is why the Candlelight Processional Dinner package thing is so frustrating, too. They won't announce when they are going to be available, so someone who just happens to call at the right time can get a reservation and conceivably beat out people who have been waiting for weeks or months.

I'm glad to hear that I'm not the only one having problems. It happened to me last week when I was tring to book for Christmas Eve, tried again a couple of hours later & all was OK. I can't believe practically everything is booked for the 30th already!!!!

As of 4:30 EDT the website is still only showing 17 restaurants available for dinner. It is odd. Some of those are what I would consider (from reading the boards) the most popular restaurants. In contrast, there are many that are "booked up" that I don't think are big draws. It has to be some sort of glitch. It just doesn't make sense.

Looks like everything is fixed now.

Yup--everything worked for me this morning, too. I got the restaurant I was trying to get yesterday as well as today's.

There are some isolated exceptions (that didn't affect me). Doing a search on all restaurants indicated that 12 had no availability all day (like Biergarten and the Diamond Horseshoe). However, Le Cellier and California Grill are available all day.

So they must occasionally have problems getting restaurants loaded into the system.

Thanks for the tips and encouragement, everyone! I was pulling my hair out yesterday.

 

[Hobbitmomma]

Yep, all is well. I got my ADRs for 12/31 with no problem. Go figure! Luckily for us, yesterday's glitch didn't really affect us. I just switched two ADRs that were interchangeable anyway, but it made me nervous for today.

Happy to hear that everyone got what they wanted. This new system seems to have a ton of issues. I know I checked on changing some ADRs on Chrismtas day yesterday and had a lot of availability so I figured it had to be a glitch. Just took them long enough to fix it!
