My 180 window is coming up soon and I've noticed a lot of people saying restaurants are booking up early and I've noticed it as well as I look on the website to see what's available. I think I know which order I need to book these restaurants, but want to make sure I've got it right.

We are staying onsite so I should be able to book 180+10 on April 13. I think the first 4 will be the most difficult to get. After that I don't think it matters in what order I do them.

BOG Dinner @6:30 - Friday Oct. 16
Crystal Palace Breakfast @8:00 - Friday Oct. 16
Ohana Dinner @ 5:00- Wednesday Oct. 14
Tusker House Breakfast @ 8:00 - Sunday Oct. 11
Garden Grill Dinner @ 6:30 - Saturday Oct. 10 (arrival day)
Sci-Fi lunch/dinner, not sure what time yet - Monday Oct. 12
Whispering Canyon Breakfast @ 7:30 - Monday Oct. 12
Kona Cafe Breakfast @ 7:30 - Tuesday Oct. 13
Trails End Dinner @ 6:30 - Sunday Oct. 11
 
I think you hit it on the money. Remember that if you don't get them all on the first day you have 179 days to snipe one.
 
What is 180+10? Are you saying you can book 190 days before arrival date?

I'll know if I get want I want in 8 days. And you're right, if I don't I can continue to try until our trip.

180+10 means if you are staying onsite, you can book all your days (up to 10 days) when your 180 day window opens. My window opens on April 13 (180 days from our check in day of Oct. 10) and I'll be able to book ADRs for my entire trip (Oct 10-17). If I wasn't staying onsite, I could only book one day at a time. Hope that makes sense.

Yes, thank u!! We are staying 4 nights so sounds like I can book everything at 180
 
Not sure if I was just too late, but the latest BOG dinner I could get on party nights were before 6pm. I had trouble booking online so I had called at 7am. We have a 10+ night stay, so I was calling in to book towards the end of our stay. They can search your length of stay, keep a flexible schedule in case you don't get the times you want.
