Was anyone able to get a PPO BOG 8/19-8/25?

[DrFacilier]

I booked ADRs this morning and got everything except BOG which I was trying at 180 +4 and +6. There was nothing available on those days or for that whole week. At first I just thought "Well, those are tough reservations to get" and after a bunch of refreshing/ changing party etc. , I found nothing and moved on.

I had had some trouble booking a Fantasmic and ROL dining package online so at 7am I called the reservation line to take care of those. When the CM asked if I needed anything else I jokingly said "Yeah, if you could get me a 8am BOG that would be great." Instead of laughing, she checked both of the dates I wanted and said there was nothing available. Then she said something like "August isn't available yet but keep checking back". I asked her if she knew when they might be available and she said they haven't been told.

I did some searching for the week before 8/12-8/18 I am looking and I was able to find a reservation between 8 and 9 every day so I think it's weird there were no PPOs available during my week.

Did anyone score a PPO BOG for the week of 8/19-8/25? Or is it possible they haven't released them for that week as the CM had mentioned?

Most likely they just haven't released them yet. Pretty annoying since they expect us to have our plans done at 180 days.

Same here. Friends of ours are trying to get dinner at BOG for 8/15 and was told by a CM that they didn't open reservations yet and didn't know why. He was trying for over since 180 days out. So weird. There were ADRs for breakfast and lunch that week but none for dinner.

Does anyone here know why?

I tried to get dinner for the same week and had no luck. Lots of gossip going around like the kitchen is getting a remodel and they are making dinner a signature (2 dining credits). It seems no one really knows what is going on.

It is weird. I could have had a breakfast for 4 at 9:10 or for 1 at 9:05 on 8/25 but those were the only options showing up for breakfast and we were looking for PPO.

Yeah I have been hearing that too but I did some snooping around the week prior to our arrival date and it looked like breakfasts were running normally so I was hoping our week would be fine too. Hopefully they will post them soon!

I got an 8.15 on 20th August for 5 people. That was my 180+2, and was the earliest I could get. I could have gotten an 8am further on in the week though.

. Well that’s awesome for you! That makes this whole thing stranger. When I looked on my phone earlier 8am reservations were blocked out from 8/20 on.

According to the Dibb breakfast and lunch are booking as normal and it’s just dinner that’s not but that’s obviously not the case if you’re having trouble.

I have been trying for 8/21 & it says nothing available the entire morning. When did you do your booking?

 

[Amanda999]

I've been trying for 8/21-8/24 for days - lunch BOG - and nothing. (I'm in my 180+10, when I started to search.) No problem any day before or after.

Yeah. Unfortunately the breakfasts and lunches are still a mystery as of right now though.

My 180 days was Saturday (17th feb) as I arrive Friday 17th August. Did it online at 11am uk time as soon as it opened and I thought that would be my most difficult so did that one first (I ordered them in order of difficulty to get rather than time order) That was 180+2 but out of interest I looked and at 180+7 I could have had an 8am slot for 5 people.

 

[purplejam]

I’ve been trying to book a lunch adr 19th August or 20th August - just keeps saying no times available.
I guess I’ll just have to keep trying !

 

[DrFacilier]

Nothing seems to have changed today. I’m wondering if they will release more availability along with the pri fixe reservations tomorrow.

I struggled to get be our guest lunch today for my 180+10. Never had a problem before for lunches or dinners if I book right at 6am. Not trying for dinners now - only want lunch,
