Enjoy! I did the WOC dessert party with a friend of mine a couple of years ago and we loved it!
The website isn't always the best at keeping every aspect updated at the same time (for instance you can sometimes find refurb dates looking at the calendars on the individual ride pages that aren't listed on the main calendar page yet). I would bet dining was the first to update because they need to get reservations going asap, I wouldn't stress too much about it.
About a hour or so before. They may cut the line earlier though if the line is longer.
Hmmm. I remember they do cut off the lines at maybe an hour before but the rides seem to keep going until 15 minutes before - or so. Am I misremembering?
It varies by ride. I know the wheel is the first to close shop for the night though.Hmmm. I remember they do cut off the lines at maybe an hour before but the rides seem to keep going until 15 minutes before - or so. Am I misremembering?
Yes that is certainly right. I think I remember CA Screamin going until 10-15 minutes before. And SSS as well. I thought TSMM stays open during WOC for other folks out there wondering - I think it is the only ride operating during WOC around the Pier.
I'm not sure if you're referring to the dessert party or the dining packages. My understanding is that the dessert party is refunded if the show is cancelled. IIRC, the dining packages are not refunded if the show is cancelled last minute since you would have already had the meal. In that scenario you could stop by guest services and see if they can get you passes for the show the next day or just some regular FP to make up it, but I wouldn't expect a full refund since the meal has value on its own. If they announce that the show is cancelled early in the day, before your meal time, I would imagine they would let you cancel or convert your reservation to a regular one.
