I can't recall which changes from 14/15 to 15/16 required 8 days maintenance downtime, 10 and a half days before the opening
Of course there's no room for such a long sleep time now, I wonder if they'll do without Maintenance time at all this season.
I figure some "Updating" time would be inevitable tho
