Safari Steve:
Congrats on surviving Grad Night! Having participated in one 20 years ago at Disneyland and having some really great memories - thanks to you and your fellow CMs from the generations of graduating seniors!
I also work for a large media conglomerate (Newscorp) and have nothing to do with researching or writing news stories or editorial content for where I work (and I'm cautioned about putting out any official/unofficial word when one of sports anchors gets fired etc.) However...
what is up with the cancellantion of E-Nights in May?
I know you read the boards - and I for one am always very interested in your point of view and great information...please shed some insight into this topic.
OK - I know I'm just whining...my DH and I will be staying at AKL May 5 - May 12 and to have both e-nights cancelled was quite a letdown. We'll still have a great vacation but even though MK hours have expanded an hour Monday-Thursday - Fireworks were cancelled for Friday and an hour taken off the schedule. So MK on Saturday night will be a zoo! This can't be any fun for MK CM's either. There is something incredibly magic about MK at night...I wish they'd move the hours from 9am-7pm to 12pm-10pm!
We will miss EE - now we'll miss E-nights - what is left for on-site guests...having spent a great deal of time convincing my extended family, friends and coworkers to plan WDW vacations - with all the great deals for staying on-site there are even better deals dollarwise for staying off-site. Cancelling E-nights doesn't make sense from a business standpoint if you want guests to spend their money on-site, right?
thanks again for all your great posts...we were hoping for a Star Wars weekend for our time in May too...but maybe next year...
