I have been checking and checking. No luck. I think they are ending it. We will be there in 2 weeks and I will ask.
The EMM schedule is out through June (maybe beginning of July now) and is severely lacking - they don't have it at all the end of May or the beginning of June - so unless they plan to add dates, which doesn't make sense as they JUST added May and June dates in the last months, then that would not be the reason.If EMM is selling well and sounds like it is ........ wouldn't it make sense to increase it's frequency and eliminate the BOG PPO in hopes many of those folks will now pay for the advantage. Guests knowing that they will be blocked from early entry to Fantasyland and the only way to get early access is to pay for EMM .......... could be a wise business decision.
Who knows, Disney has never made wise decisions regarding BOG ............. but it wouldn't shock me, especially summers that may be more crowded and folks more likely to pay the extra money.

The speculation I heard is they are going to truly make it a prix fixe price, like they indicated they would do awhile back, to combat the big groups going in a ordering 1 cupcake and a coffee to get early 7DMT access.
That's fine with me, I just hope they open up the reservations for my trip because I was really hoping to do EMM and that isn't offered for our trip. This would be the next best thing to try to get a ride or two on 7DMT, since we are only doing one park day this trip and that would possibly help us with FP and our schedule for the day.
No...there are times available after opening...so that may make the theory a moot point. But could they figure out a way to just make the PPOs prix frixe? I don't know. Maybe that is what they are trying to figure out.So there are no times open for breakfast at all, not just PPO times?
Hmmm I would LOVE it be like they promised and hopefully if everyone pays, the price comes back where it was supposed to be. It aggravates me how screwed up BOG is ... huge overhead .... people buying cupcakes.

Or maybe the speculation is completely wrong and they aren't going to offer it anymore.
Please share what you find out when you are there! I too have not seen any BOG PPO ADR before 9am for our upcoming trip.I have been checking and checking. No luck. I think they are ending it. We will be there in 2 weeks and I will ask.
You are probably correct.I simply don't see them doing one operational approach from 8-9AM, and then staying as-is from 9-10:30. That is a bloody nightmare from an operational perspective. So if they're blocking the early ADRs pending going prix fixe but not the later, that's just terrible planning. Either take all of breakfast to prix fixe, or just say "we will not open until 9."
Thank you so much, just got booked for June!I was just able to book PPO breakfast on July 8 and 15 at 8:00!!!
I have no idea of the reason but it isn't completely uncommon. When I booked in early Dec 2016 for our 2017 trip, there were no CP breakfast ADRs or Hollywood & Vine breakfast ADRs. A few weeks later, the CP ones became available and then it took even longer for the H&V ones. But eventually they all got loaded into the system.So glad everyone is able to get what you want! I am still wondering what the hold up was. I have only been waiting 2 weeks, but I know some of you have been waiting over a month...so weird.
