I guess they are expecting a light winter, especially with pushing back All-Star Movies .. and hoping (crossing their fingers) more for an increase in demand by Spring. All good signs .. Just a shame that the Port Orleans hotels or other All-Stars are still not slated to be open (but obviously they aren't needed -- just a shame from a fan perspective)>
Wasn't hoppers not allowed to get in on the afternoon boarding group (since they needed to be in the park?)
Is this just basically moving up the afternoon boarding group time by an hour to just make it impossible (and thus VERY CLEAR) that park hoppers cannot join the afternoon board group (since park hopping doesn't start until 2:00 PM?) .
So were they getting too many people trying to hop to DHS just to get on Rise in the afternoon and causing a traffic jam at the entry gates? Or was it just causing confusion as people were trying to get into the park before 2:00 PM, but since hopping didn't happen until 2:00 PM they were denied entry (and thus upset?)
Good to know for January though -- even though my daughter will have an AP, I only have non-hopper tickets for the rest of the family -- I doubt the hours will be long enough to bother with hopping on a 5-6 day trip.
