Any idea what the park hours will be in December

[gramto2boys]

We arrive on the 6th of December, staying until the 13th. I would love to know the park hours so I can plan what days I will be what park. I do know the magic kingdom closes at 7 several times while we are there so I would like to plan my days around those, and to also figure out what parks to to the days the park closes at 7:00.

Also we arrive at 5:15 to the airport, how long does it take to get to your motel using the resort bus? is it possible to head into one of the parks this first night?

I have no help with your question, but we're going that exact same week! BEST week to go...lowest crowds!

I am so glad! i was not sure it was lowest in crowds. thats even better. we wanted to see the decorations and the osborn lights. we have never been to WDW we are very excited. my family and friends are tired of me telling them all my details.... all day :lol:

Hi,

Here is a link to the park hours in December 2007 so you can use them as a general guide.

December 2008 hours will be posted on the WDW website on or around June 1.

i agree- use 07 hours for now to get a general idea if you can. If I remember from our trip- Epcot was open the usual hours (FW til 7pm, WS til 9pm). MK was open until 8 or 9 unless it was a MVMCP night. MGM/HS was open until 8 most nights i believe and AK always closed early at 5.

I don't have experience with Magical Express- I assume that is what you mean by 'resort bus' for your hotel? where are you staying? I know typically it takes forever to get luggage at MCO. at least 30 minutes from the time you exit plane til your luggage arrives typically or longer. If you use ME, you don't worry about your luggage though. You probably won't be heading out of the airport until 6 or 6:15 if waiting on luggage, then it is a 20 min or so drive to the WDW area. I know ME can take a while as they wait for the bus to get full before departing. So in all honesty, i wouldn't count on arriving at your hotel until 7pm or so to be conservative? So if a park is open that late, then you could head over- usually Epcot is open until 9pm (World Showcase) even during the holidays.

we are bringing carry on luggage so it will not have to go thru . I hated having to wait for luggage! so we all do carry ons. pack 2 duggles in the suicases and extra luggage tags so when the laundry is dirty we can send it home in the duffles :lol: We also use those space age backs to compact things well so there is room for everything in our suitcases.we all leave with one carry on suitcase, and head home with a duffle and a carry on suitcase.

we will be staying at pop century. also can we use our meal plan the first night at the hotel?
