I hope they haven’t stopped it. We did it twice last time but I’m not sure I’d bother without the early park entry.

The period affected also isn't allowing you to book The Fireworks desert party which I think is down to the parade times not being officially confirmed.

So I am thinking it may all be related... e.g. Opening times, closing times, parade times being officially confirmed.

Just a guess but I am thinking all of a sudden a load of 8am booking might suddenly appear so its worth keeping an eye out.

I have a booking for lunch time on our last day as my girls want to go and its still a QS credit.

I think you may be on to something with the times not being confirmed, it's unusual for HEA to not be bookable at 180. So perhaps they are looking at tweaking the schedules in summer.

It's strange though, as it's always been an 8am opener so I can't see the park hours making a difference. Unless they're also considering changing the MK opening process again, which is certainly possible.

Yeah, seems to be around mid May when it stops.

Another forum has confirmed this. No reasons have been given yet

I think it's that they're all booked up. People choose the 8am slot first for early entry. I've seen a couple of 8.40 slots so they're definitely still available. You might just have to keep checking. I managed to get an 8.20 booking the night before back in September, which was great. Didn't love the food, but I loved how empty Disney was.

For which dates ? We are talking about end of May onwards not being available. They where available before then.

They were available before 9am. They’re not now. It isn’t a matter of them being booked up

They are 100% just not available to book. Its solid 9am across the board from end of May onwards.

Strange how there is still no news on this - wish Disney would hurry up and sort it. I'm also waiting for dessert party and an 8am slot!
