Disney has recently updated their Cast Member blockout calendar to include more opportunities for Cast Members to visit the Disney World theme parks. When compared to our previous update about the blockouts, we can see that Disney has added availability for October 13, 14, and 15.
The calendar also shows dates through December, but that’s fairly insignificant because Disney is only updating the availability a few weeks in advance.
Typically, we see Disney open up Cast Member availability when they’re confident that attendance won’t be negatively impacted by Cast Members taking up Disney Park Pass spots.
Going back to only allowing Cast Members to visit the theme parks during the middle of the week seems to indicate that Disney is noticing more demand for the weekends in mid-October than they anticipate for early October. For more on weekend wait time trends, check out our earlier post.
