«« When Will Park Hours For _____ Be Posted?

[jillyh]

I too primarily use Touring Plans for predicted hours etc. Got really confused a few days ago when I saw a post stating different EMH than Touring plans has, but after much investigation including looking at the 2015 Travel Agent Calendar I realized Disney tends to change the EMH pattern the 1st week of December. I feel like I can't really plan park days until I know for sure!

Do you think Disney is waiting for the new star wars show at hollywood studios and the nighttime events at Animal Kingdom to officially open and then they will extend their hours at these two parks for mid november? They are still saying 7:00 PM and 5:00 PM for closing time.

Does anyone else just continue to hit refresh on the December 2015 TA park hours and hoping it will magically become 2016 hours?

Not at all.

I'm still doing that with AUGUST and NOVEMBER to see if they've updated hours!

 

[jillyh]

I have been doing that same thing

Many, many times per day. At least we'll start getting December hours at midnight eastern tonight. I'm most curious about the first weekend in December, so I should have the information I need in just a few more days. However, it would be nice if Disney would just release the full December TA calendar now!

so much so that when it finally becomes 2016 I'll have to have another set of eyes confirm it!

Each night at midnight they add a day's worth of park hours to the long-range schedule. You can currently see park hours through November 30. Tonight they'll show December 1.

So far, two days of my trip have no EMH listed at all, Nov. 28 and Dec. 3... So annoying. I hope it's updated sooner, rather than later, and that the rest of my days have the EMH listed!

I just read in another thread that if you call Disney they will give you the hours for your trip. Here is the information I got from the thread:
No EMH Dec 3-5
Dec 4 early EMH HS
Dec 6 PM EMH Epcot
Dec 7 pm EMH MK

Hope that helps! If someone does call in please let us know.

The wait for December is killing me!!

Is this common for Disney to not have valid hours even 4 months out? September still does not show whats going on at AK or DS with their night time shows. Is it like this yearly?

Yep. I'm going Friday and I keep checking to see if they changed the hours. In fact, I've been at the MK before when they announce over the speakers that they will be staying open later than scheduled (I think we went from 11 pm to 1 am). So you can't think the hours are final - ever.

I would say we're seeing a pretty unusual upheaval right now though, what with all the new things opening this summer and the park hours at AK changing but not 100% known due to the issues with ROL and whatnot. It definitely wasn't this unpredictable last year when I was planning my first trip. We don't even have a December TA calendar yet and we're more than 2 weeks past when they would typically post it. No, this is not "normal", unless it is the *new* normal for Disney. I do hope it's only temporary.
