I've read through 10 pages of comments and through all the enraged comments about how disgusted you are, how disappointed and how sad it all is, there's 2 points that didn't get brought up until halfway through page 5, and one not at all:
1. You're all enraged and sad about something that HASNT EVEN HAPPENED YET. They haven't taken away your PM EMH, this is separate to that. Y'all are stressed and worried about something that might not even happen.
What if the once a week hard ticket events are on says that MK didn't even have EMH?
Edit: I wrote this as I was reading through and the lovely and talented queen of magic and pixie dust, Ms
@WebmasterJackie pointed out that they're NOT on PM EMH nights.
2. DLPark only has magic mornings a few times a week. I know that's not how WDW works and y'all are pissy that something is being taken away from you, but who's to say that IF this "replaces" PM EMH, that they won't offer 2 hours of AM EMH?
Petes mentioned it many times: what if they extend to 20 or 24 hour days? Maybe this is part of that plan?
AM EMH extended to start at 6am or 7am and the paid PM EMH?
That thing is: we don't know!!
Don't get your knickers in a twist over something that hasn't even happened yet, it's not worth the wrinkles and grey hairs
don't use that in the advertizement for the meal, and then after you get there say there is an extra charge if you want that.
the thing is... How often do you see small children skipping down Main Street, with no crowds, hand in hand with Mickey?
That's in the advertisements (or things of that nature) so isn't this the same thing?
Kevin is married which i was incorrect about but I don't think he has young children. Someone will surely correct me if i'm wrong. If they are older he is removed and detached from what I think Steve's point was; how do families make this work if its something they want to do is a valid one.
As Kevin mentioned, neither he nor Steve have children.
Families don't HAVE to go to Disney. If they can afford it, fine, but if they can't, tough cookies.
There are tons of people who don't have the money to pay for that extra expense or the ability to wait two hours on a curb and the fastpass viewing area really allowed people who couldn't pay and couldn't wait to make the choice to use one of their passes for an attraction for that purpose instead and that was a service to everyone.
The fastpass areas are relatively new, maybe 2-2.5 years I think?
People waited on the curb for two+ hours before that...
Let's say all four parks stay open until 9:00 p.m. every day to guests (doesn't matter if you're staying on-site or not) every day of the year.
Disney now changes the closing time to 7:00 p.m. and they add a $149 ticket to go to the parks from 8:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. Would that make
you happy that you, as a day guest, have lost 2 hours each day in the parks? (I'd be p*ssed.) Would you then go purchase that $149 plus tax
ticket for 3 more hours in the park? (I wouldn't.)
Up until a few weeks ago, someone coming in say, January, has far fewer park hours available to them than someone in July.
They paid the same amount for their ticket. Do you think that makes the January guest happy?
And sure, the July guest paid more for their resort room (presumably) but you don't need a resort room to enter the parks. You need a ticket. The same ticket Mr/Mrs January bought, for less time in the parks available to them.
Life isn't fair peeps, we don't all get a participation trophy in life (one of my new favorite Kevin quotes!!)
It's a wait and see on park planning with some of these changes.
