Storybook Dining at Artist Point Watch Thread!

[tinkerhon]

When I look on the app, I see other options for the date/time I've chosen. But not seeing what I want on either the website/computer or app.

Yeah- just tried again- just spins and spins, but I don't get list of available restaurants and/or times - won't load the page - when I try from iPad, doesn't even begin to search- I just get an error message

The new dinner menu doesn't look that great to me, but I hope once they add the breakfast (unknown when that may happen), I might find the breakfast menu more appealing.

I'm gonna defend any menu that adds popovers to something.

I can’t get a reservation in March between 25-28 for 3. Many times available for 2, but 3 seems to be the not magic number (no pun intended).
Couple for 4 too, but don’t want to get penalized for not having 4 when we arrive.
I knew it! I knew we should have had more than one kid!

I can’t believe how fast they went. I did manage to get a reservation for 4 but it means no ohana. Tons of reservations for 2 the entire week. This is beginning 2/10.

Nightmare...

Apparently ressies dropped this morning

Had to call as nothing on-line.

Bagged and tagged for New Years Eve (only one in our 12 day visit) !

So is it one table service? I booked this morning.

I doubt in a 6 month range most reservations are taken already. System glitches are likely.

I still think something isn't right, and all times aren't added or there is a weird glitch in the booking. There is no way this booked up for all but parties of 2 in the first couple of hours of reservations being opened up. Hang tight and keep checking, I'm confident things will open up at some time and as long as you are reasonably soon you'll get what you want! I've seen this before when new experiences open for booking, both dining and special events, and they sort themselves out- but it sure is frustrating when you're waiting and watching, and seeing others post that they booked and you didn't!

 

[tinkerhon]

Just curious - for those able to make dining ADRS - are you using the app or web ? I always use the web, and think that might be the problem - figured I would ask before I am put on hold with Disney IT for 2 hours !

I got my TP alert this morning and went on and also couldn’t find anything, for any time on any night of our March stay. 5 people, but we’re there for 7 nights and I was searching the full dinner window every night. I agree with others that it seems odd, I can’t believe everything for every date sold out the moment they became available. (I was using the website, I haven’t been able to book a dining reservation on the app anywhere in the last month, even places that definitely aren’t fully booked. It won’t even search for me.)

I also don’t see the updated website with the announcement, but I’m in Canada so perhaps that explanation is why.

I’ll set my TP alerts back up and cross my fingers, I guess! The menu sounds good, and if it really is one credit then it might fit the budget nicely. (Still calculating things, normally dining plan is not a good choice for us. But this trip we have two rooms so one can get it and one not, and are there during SPD so it’s a slightly better deal...so much math!)

I hope you are right! I also noticed that the website seems to be updated... I don't see any of my plans there whatsoever, though I see them on the app. So all sorts of weird stuff going on. Sheesh.

I've tried both. Nothing.

Just testing if I can post the screenshot. Using chrome on the US website, signed in as an AP holder. Looks like the regular Artist Point page to me Weird.

That is the Canadian webpage. It doesn't have the notice yet. The US page does though. Plus a bunch more text too.

 

[WaterLinds]

Ok, now the app is working suddenly! I can find tables for 2 in the 4:00 and 8:00 range only. But it won’t let me book overlapping tables of 2, it says it’s a conflict, even though there are lots of guests in my MDE. (The app also won’t let me choose which guests to assign it to, so I’m guessing that’s why?)

Edit: I got it to assign names, but it requires ME to be part of each party I book? So I can’t overlap them. Oh well.

That’s so weird! I got there by going to Disneyworld.com. I just tried to close the window and open a new one, and it’s automatically adding the CA at the end, even if I manually delete it. I’m in PA. I hadn’t even realized they had a Canadian site until this discussion!

ETA I’ve been watching for some specific room only reservations to hopefully pop up for our upcoming trips, wonder if I’ve been looking on the CA site or US site? I do know prices were in US dollars.

I’m in Canada and occasionally mine flips to the UK or Europe site randomly. There’s typically a link at the very top of the page to change language/country and toggle it back.

I’ll have to check that out! I have never noticed before.

I tried app first and artist pointe didn’t even come up as a choice, so tried the link on this page and was able to book.

 

[WaterLinds]

I’m also noticing that the app is listing opening hours as 5-9 but mostly offering me times between 4-4:30. So definitely still some things to be sorted out here...

I was able to get 2 reservations for 2 using 2 accounts, but need 5 total. Something’s up with all of the tables for 2, unless that’s the way the restaurant’s set up? Anyone know?
