AP Blockout Date Changes?

[Eclectic Goddess]

Do they ever change or add AP blockout dates after the online schedule has been posted? I couldn't find anything on the website that said "dates subject to change".

We're planning a trip to DL in January, and already know we'll be going again in October. I'd be buying two 4 day park hoppers, so a Deluxe AP works out to about the same cost, and I'd make good use of the discount! However, it would suck if I bought the AP in January, only to discover that I can't use it in October. Right now, the dates look clear, but could that change as we get closer?

I'm sorry, I don't know the answer to this definitively. I will say that Disney probably does have the right to change if something came up, but they would certainly face a backlash, as there are many, many people that decide whether or not to buy a particular AP type (or an AP at all) based on the AP dates that are posted. The fact that they post the blockout dates so far in advance and use it as a large part in the description of the product would make me feel pretty certain that they won't change.

In my experience, they have changed the dates, but it was previously blocked and then it was unblocked. Earlier this year, Dec. 8th & 9th were blocked, but now they're not. We've had our trip planned for close to a year and decided to get deluxe APs, so we were really happy that those dates were unblocked. Sorry that didn't really answer your question.

As far as I know once they post the dates it doesn't change. It can change slightly year to year but not from what is currently posted.
