    Is Mon/Tues ok even though no blockout?

    In the 80s/90s, it would be super crowded on Thanksgiving day and the Fri/Sat afterwards, but I've heard that it's no longer the case due to APs.

    The days leading up to Thanksgiving when the AP's are unblocked, Sunday-Wednesday, are the very busiest of the week and some of the busiest of the entire year.

    Thanksgiving itself sees the crowds drop off noticeably, and the Friday and Saturday after Thanksgiving are much less crowded than the Monday-Wednesday before Thanksgiving.

    Go on Thanksgiving, or the day after. Those are the least crowded days of the week, weather permitting.

Blue Bayou at noon was almost walkin.
