Space Mountain may be down too to remove the Ghost Galaxy overlay. Not sure how long that takes though...
I think it only takes a day to remove the overlay.

Do the canoes ever run in December, or are they generally closed during the holidays?
We will be there for a day before and a day after a cruise, so November 23 (Black Friday!) and then again on November 30!! We'll just be staying with family that lives locally for these dates. And then we'll be back again about a week later on December 10-14 staying on-property for the first time at DLH!
On 11/23, we're taking my niece and nephew for their first visits, and we are so excited!! I'm still debating on doing Black Friday or Saturday the 24th. I've gotten a mix response on which day will be worse. We are totally prepared for crowds, but if one day is better than that other, I'd love to know!
I have no idea. We are flying in the 23rd and may add a 5th day to our ticket and hit the park that evening, or just do DTD. Touring plans historic crowd calendar had Friday 6/10 and Saturday 5/10 if that helps! Saturday will have magic morning. So if you don’t have magic morning I would be inclined to go on Friday so you start at the same time as everyone else.
What cruise line are you using?! I so want to do this! Combine my two favorite vacation types into one!
We arrive into LAX very late on Friday the 14th of December. We do not want our first visit to DL to fall on a weekend because of crowds so we are going to do other things. I was planning on holding off on visiting DL until Monday, possibly visiting there Monday and Tuesday, and then heading down to San Diego. I have read some things that said Monday crowds in DL are awful. Are they really awful (for us that would be Dec. 17)? Awful like a weekend in December crowd? I see advice about waiting until Tuesday, Wed, Thur... (in our case those dates would be Dec. 18, 19 and 20) but that is putting us very close to Christmas crowds, I would think. If you have experience at DL that time of year would you say the Monday crowds would be horrible? Would we be significantly better off waiting until Tuesday the 18th of Dec. for our first day?
I think you are better off doing Dec 15 and 16 because all the APs except the 2 highest are blocked. Deluxe is open Mon-Thurs and I suspect there will be more people trying to squeeze in a trip for the christmas decorations before it's blocked for the next 2 weeks. Most schools won't be on break yet, so people are less likely to start their trip that soon. Monday and Tuesday might be ok too (but probably busier than the weekend IMO).
Okay..
I’m starting to formulate various plans and scenarios in my head.. haha! I’m so excited.
Would it be crazy to see Fantasmic twice in one trip? I LOVE LOVE the shows. If WOC is still down and especially if they don’t run PTN I am seriously considering booking two fantasmic packages because well... I love it so much! Is that crazy?!? We live in Iowa and only to get to Disneyland every other year most likely..
