«« When Will Park Hours For _____ Be Posted?

[ses1230]

Hi, I am fairly new to posting on these boards but have been going to Disney since 97. I'm from the UK so don't go every year but will be going this coming November.

With the introduction of Magic bands and the fact people seem to book ADR's so far in advance I thought it might be a good idea to follow suit and plan a itinerary for my vacation.

I like your design so will come up with something similar. I have one question though, how have you determined what are the best and worst parks to visit on a day by day basis?

I use easywdw as well.

I'm not LSUfan4444, but I assume he's using easywdw.com. The November calendar should be out mid to late April.

Thanks I will check it out

Does anyone know how daylight savings time affects park hours? In other words, will there be a big change from Oct hours to Nov hours, given that DST is 11/2? Thanks.

Does Disney ever make any changes to hours?
These hours on the calendar are shorter than last year. AK was open until 6pm last year, and this year it's only open until 5pm.
Not to mention there were a number of late-night MK opportunities (a Mon. 2am (EMH), a Wed. 11pm and a Sat. 1am during the week we are going), cut back to only the one night they are open until midnight.

Nvm. Got that answered in another thread.

Yay! I have been looking forward to this for a year- lol!

Although I am a bit disappointed about Oct 4. My daughter will be turning 8 that day and we were hoping to do a MK day. Unfortunately, it is the least recommended park that day! Both days either side of her birthday, it is recommended- typical! I will have to discuss it with her and see if she has her heart set on her birthday at MK. Maybe we could do HS during the day and then head to CRT for her birthday dinner?

I might see if she is happy to do a Waterpark day and then head to MK later in the afternoon for CRT, MSEP and Wishes.

Yes, they change them often and almost always extend them the closer you get to your dates. I know last year they changed them at least 3x (extending hours) for our trip. These are extremely preliminary hours but at least give you an idea so you can start your planning.

OMG so excited Oct hours are out early! Wasn't really in a good mood today and this just turned it all around! Let the planning begin - off to my worksheets!!!

 

[bless7ings]

What do you guys use for your worksheets? Does anyone have any to post?

I was looking at park hours for our stay Aug 28-sept 5.... It says for the August dates that MK closes at 7pm! Is this true? I don't think I have ever left MK that early

Yes, it's true that MK is closing at 7pm on Friday, August 29th.

The only August date that MK is closing at 7 is August 29, and speculation is that it's for the first MNSSHP, although they've never had one in August before.

When will the dates for the "Not So Scary Halloween" be released? We are planning our September/October Trip and would like to know those dates.

Last year the Disney Parks Blog officially announced the dates on May 8th.

But you can look at the current September and October travel agent calendars and make initial guess when the parties will be. Any night MK closes at 7pm is expected to be a party night.
