That’s fine as long as MK isn’t at capacity (which almost never happens).
I think it depends how certain you want to be about being in MK. To be certain, make an MK reservation. If you are OK to accept the possibility of MK not allowing hopping on that day due to capacity, then stay with DHS.
How many Capacity Days are You Guessing? Starlight is Wonderful!!!! But it's not a Holiday or anything? Maybe Non Party Nights will feel like a Holiday? Hope MK is really Planning 9 & 11!....
I can’t remember the last time hopping was blocked. Not even NYE.
They are planning an old-school parade firework sandwich. And they are very concerned about crowd control.
That’s what happens when just about everyone working in ops wasn’t with the company the last time they ran a light parade.
Keep East Bypass open starting with FOF!
Yes very true. There are very few left there who were around in the days of an MK night parade.
I don't think a Direction has been confirmed?
"Why would they make a whole new route for one parade?" a source just asked me. It's not impassible, but unlikely that we're going to see a backwards running Starlight.
It was the 50th I think. October 1, 2021. And it wasn’t blocked all day.
Shades of “We’re going to need a VQ to get in SW:GE” that was abandoned midday opening day.
One rationale for this is that by starting on MS you will pull guests further into the park rather than pulling them out of the park.
I don't believe it was reported. I would have Jumped for JOY if we knew Starlight would come down MS from TBA!!!!!!!!
True. MK wouldn't want the 9PM Starlight to lead Guests to the Exits right before HEA...(just guessing here)
Nights parades traveling from Frontierland to Main Street is an operational nightmare. Even if they try it at first (because it’s been so long they have forgotten how to run a night parade) they will quickly reverse course and switch to starting on Main Street.
We might see(from Contemp)when Testing starts...
