BOG at 180 days? - The DIS Discussion Forums

Cinderumbrella · 12-05-2012, 08:09 AM

For those of you who are making ADRs for early summer trips, how is the success rate with booking BOG at 180 days? Our ADR day is Friday but I probably won't be making my ressie's until around 8am Central.

Thanks!

I was able to get mine last week even though I didn't remember until about 10 am CST.

We are booked for the last week of May. The times available were 4:30 or 7:15. We took the later. As long as you aren't picky about the time, you shouldn't have much trouble.

I had absolutely no trouble when I booked for June 5. And that was for a party of 8! I think you will be fine. Good luck anyway!!

Just booked mine for 180 days and got pretty close to what I was hoping for. Seems like you can early dine earlier (4:50) or later (7:20), but there's not a lot in-between.
Quite easy to get one though, so you shouldn't have a problem.

Thanks everyone! Tomorrow is the day, so we shall see what I get...

I booked yesterday morning (our 180 day mark) right at 6 am and was able to get a 6:30 dinner reservation for 2.

Cinderumbrella · 12-07-2012, 09:45 AM

I snagged my 6:30 pm dinner (also for party of 2) today without issue.

Thanks everyone!

My TA did for me in the past, but I do not have a hotel ressie yet because I do not have my plans firmed up.

Can I still book ressies without a resort? Is there a calculator to tell you the 180 mark? Is the extra 10 days the benefit for on site?

I need my first ressie to be around the 22nd of June.t

Yes you can book but have to do each day at the 180 day mark. If you have a reservation, you can book 180 days from your check-in date + 10 days.

Thank you so much!

Are reservations not required for lunch?

No, lunch is counter service.

Do they have the same "show" features at lunch as they do at dinner at BOG?

mad madam mim78 · 12-09-2012, 07:02 PM

I got a 7:20 reservation about 175 days out. I really wanted a 6ish dinner time. I checked back 170 days out and snagged a 6:20.
