AK open till 8 pm

[bwalk00]

Now that AK has been open till 8 pm (last 2 weeks) and will remain over the summer, my DH and I are wondering how the crowds are in the park after 6 pm. Has anyone been there recently and been able to ride EE in the evening without a fast pass and a really long wait? We'll be there in mid-June and wondering if the crowds at AK will thin in the evening.

We are going 5/6-5/13 and Animal Kingdom is only showing as being open until 5pm. boohoo.

I was wondering the same thing, we plan on going on June 19th as it is EMH and the park could be open as late as 11PM. Has anyone been to EMH at AK? What are the crowds like? Thanks.

i've got friends that work at ak and they're completely un-impressed with the extended hours. (granted, the reason is because some areas are vastly understaffed, so instead of scheduling more people to work over the course of a day, they're scheduling the same amount of people, and scheduling them longer hours each day. One of the reasons they worked at ak to begin with was to get away from the 14 hr work days other parks "offered" them)
