Just wanted to see if anyone else is running into this. I have been trying to get a PS for the Plaza rest. in MK since the May hours were released. We want to eat around 7 and then watch Wishes at 9pm. Obviously, MK is closing at 9pm that night. All of the table service rest. in MK are only taking PS's until around 5 or 6 at the latest. Does this make sense? Every CM I speak with tells me that they don't know why everything would be closing early. Am I crazy in thinking that if the restaurants are closing 3 to 4 hours before closing of the park, there are going to be some hungry people in the World. When I ask the CM if there is chance that later times will open up later, they say "No, these times are set". Doesn't this seem kinda weird?

BTW, I am refering to Sun, May 15.
 
I called on the 90th day out, at 7 am with no hold, for LTT on the Saturday of Mem. Day weekend, and 5:25 pm was the latest PS they were giving out. (I wanted 7 pm.) I took it and they said to call back once May park hours were out. I did, and still nothing later. The CM said "Maybe they're closing early that day." I can't imagine that LTT is closing early the Saturday of Memorial Day weekend!

Do you think they hold later times for concierge guests? Does anybody know?
 
I am a concierge guest and my ps at the MK is 5:45 at the castle on may 5th. that is the last for that day I am waiting to see if they will extend hours and if they do concierge will change my ps if not i keep the 5:45 one so far as i know i still have the 5:45 one.
 
Hmmm...does anybody know? Do the MK sit down restaurants close very early - i.e. by 7 pm - even when the park is open unitl 10 pm? It just doesn't make any sense. If a later time doesn't ever open up, I think that on the day I have LTT for 5:25, I'll go to guest services right at park opening and see what they have available. I'll flip if they say "7 pm."
 

Hello,

Yes... I am running into exactly the same thing. I've been trying to book the Plaza Restaurant for about 6pm on May 16th. At 90 days out I was told the latest was 3:40pm so I didn't book, at 60 days I was told the latest was 4:15 pm, so I stil didn't book. Yesterday I was told the latest was 4:50pm so I took it but it is still too early. I figure that by the week before I arrive I should be able to get 6pm! I too am wondering if something is going on. My last CM said that they usually serve early but I know I had a 6pm PS there last year with a 9pm closing.

Let us know if you get what you want.
 
The Plaza Restaurant often closes at 5:00pm. We had a 4:50pm PS on 3/2, which I think was the last one. Unfortunately, it was our arrival day and we did not make it on time so we missed it.
 
That's just wild. You'd think that at busy times, they'd keep the restaurants open as long as possible. (More $$$ for them.)

When we were at DLP last year, it was very difficult to find food to buy in the evening. By 3 hours before closing itme, every single snack kiosk was closed.
 
I guess it comes down to if they feel they will have enough business to make it worth staying open and paying staff. I've been at the Plaza around 4:30-5:00 before and it was practically empty.
