In another thread, someone was sweet enough to heads up on some early June MK days getting hours extended; now 8a-1a. Most in the thread were focused on the am potion for pre-opening ADR's. I'll be there one of those days, but will still be snoozing that early lol. We'll be night owl touring the entire trip. I can't find answers to the below anywhere (and believe me, I've tried ha). If anyone knows, I would be very grateful. Sorry so many questions!
  1. Even though MDE shows a 1a close, M&G's still only showing through 11:30. Are those typically extended & just not updated on MDE? (Didn't get A&E even @ 60 days, plan has been to go late as possible for reduced wait)
  2. Do extended hrs typically open up new FP slots? I've been obsessively pulling it up, so far does'nt look like it yet.
  3. The day I'm referencing is 6/9, a Tues. Know hrs extend in relation to more people expected. But, our 3rd MK day is 6/12, that Fri; & those hrs aren't extended. Seems odd Tues over Fri? Anything particular about that Tues? IE: more sporting tournament stuff, etc?
  4. Is it only on extreme holidays, etc that MK will get so busy, they'll "close" the park to more incoming people? The day was already scheduled to be a 7 bf hrs extended. Am I safe that a boring ole 6/9 Tues won't reach capacity bf we pull up to the parking lot around 2-3 in the afternoon? In the extreme case of that, would we be allowed in if coming from on property ( A of A, but we'll be driving v/s bus) & booked FP's, but no ADR's?

A. Yes.
B. Yes.
C. If the MK parking lot closes, nobody will be allowed to park there.
Guests are re-routed to the Epcot parking lot and are monorailed over to MK.
(But, I would not expect anything like that on "a boring ole 6/9 Tues." ) ;)
