I got selected for the fantasyland preview for today. I stopped by the new expansion yesterday about 11:15 and explained to the CM that I wouldnt be in MK today. They gave me wristbands for everyone for the 12:30-4:30 viewing even though Melody & I were the only ones with APs. After lunch at CRT, we went over and they were letting park guests into the viewing as well. One CM told me that they expected so many AP holders to show but hardly any of them did. They were supposedly counting the number of people going in and out to limit the # of people in there. I'm not sure how true that is.
Disney extended the hours at MK till 1am expecting to have a packed park for those AP preview days. Touring guides upped their predictions from 3's &4's to 9's for Tuesday, today, & Thursday. Yesterday the park was probably a 3.5. Minimal wait times for everything except meet & greets. It was really nice.
