FP+ for Be Our Guest - A Tale of Two CMs With Conflicting Information: What's the Real Deal?

[MissingDisney]

I just used the link graciously provided by my fellow WDWMagic-ers. Never got an e-mail. Got in no problem and have a printout and screenshot of my BOG FP.

I got the link to work. But apparently there are no FPs available from 05/28-06/04.

Are there still lines to get in for lunch?

The fast passes are not open for those days yet. Most people had their windows "open" around the 30 day mark. Right now it will look like you can make a fp but then tell you there are none available, but then one day they will magically be available. At least this is what I have been told. My trip starts 5/14 so I will let you know if I have any luck.

That's what I figured/hoped for. Thanks and good luck!

Good luck to you as well! And yes the normal lines are still about an hour to get in, so I hope for the best for both of us!

Thanks for the help. I am still working on it. It asks me for my reservation number once I enter my username and password. But it won't accept my res. # because it is numbers and letters. Perhaps I have not linked something properly. I will try to figure it out tomorrow. Thanks again! much appreciated

 

[Dwarful]

thanks. I did go log on and looked that numbers by our Magic Bands...different than our reservation number. So I tried that MB number...BINGO! It works. Now I just have to keep an eye on the site for our time frame to open up. Thanks so much to all of you for sharing the info.

Great! Glad I could help!

Our trip starts on 5/15, I'll keep checking here as well as continue to try the BoG FP+ website. If I should be successful, I'll immediately post here that I was.

I just did the same thing. Wouldn't let me do a Sunday but I got it for a different day. Took Screen Shot and Printout. Reading trip reports it seems many have needed the back up proof others don't.

Seems a bit silly what the Computer CM said.

I'm thinking this is the overall problem with MME not limited to BOG FP+ The inconsistency of answers, the non-answers, wrong answers, re-shaking the mixture as soon as CMs start to get it, I can't fault the CMs. Not even the trainers. Disney just keeps changing everything and it is becoming obvious that not every CM or Trainer is being brought up to date on every aspect as it is being changed.

I'm going to be real surprised if in the future though if BOG doesn't go to Lunch and Dinner Table Service. There seems to be the draw and the profit margins would be greater.

I agree with everything you said.

I did the same thing. It's not asking for the confirm number for your hotel reservation. Follow these instructions and you should be fine:

Go to magic bands and cards on mde. Look where it says order and there will be a confirmation number there that is different from the one on the my reservations page. I had to do this for my in laws when the other number didn't work. It may have to do with booking through another company or not having a package?

Good luck to you as well! And yes the normal lines are still about an hour to get in, so I hope for the best for both of us!

That's one line I won't be waiting in. I don't have to eat at BOG this trip. But I'd like to squeeze it in if I can. We planned the trip at the 70-day mark. So we're pretty much excluded from ADRs. But maybe the FP+ will pay off. If not, oh well. It will be there next time.

Thanks for all your help!

Can anyone with experience with a BOG Fastpass+ within the last week or two clue us in on how it's being done right now?

What the heck!??! Does anybody have any actual knowledge of which story (if any) is correct? Asking a CM at check-in to make me a FP+ for BOG just sounds bizarre, but who knows? I'm 48 days away from arrival and starting to get anxious!

We checked in on Friday 2/28 at around 9 am. Got the email within an hour. But when i tried to use the link, it could only find availability on Monday and only for the first time frame (when bog opens)...

So we grabbed that and were escorted in as the first couple.... It was like we had the west wing to ourselves for about 20 mins while everyone else filtered in.

I kept checking online and was able to grab dinner reservations at about the 100 day mark. I think it was a pure accident...but happy.

I'm happy for you. But it makes me nervous. If the window is open to some at 100 days, I stand very little chance snagging one in less than 70 days. I wish Disney would just change the message to indicate my window isn't open yet. Then I'd stop checking.

 

[Dwarful]

oh sorry. What I meant is at around the 100 day mark I was just playing around on the dining website and someone must have cancelled their dinner reservations for BOG and at that moment I was able to grab it before it was gone. So if you are looking for dinner you might just keep checking. I still check in case something better for our plans come along. We ate their for lunch last summer and the girls want to try it for dinner too.

We have a FP for BOG reserved for our trip coming up in two weeks up until today I could log in and see what we preselected for food and all the details. Now when I log in it says "We apologize for any inconvenience. Please stop by the Magic Kingdom® Service Center as soon as you arrive to the park for assistance logging in to the website or selecting an arrival window and preordering your meal."

Anybody ever seen this before? Did we lose our FP somehow? I have been so excited about getting to eat there. I will be so upset if we lost it.

If it lets you, book again.

I can't access the system at all, it recognizes a correct login versus an incorrect password or something, so thats not the problem. But it won't let me get any further than that note...hoping the system is just down tonight or something.
