Confused on hours for MK

[kath2me]

Two Calendar hours I have viewed show 10/22 Monday in MK,, 1 shows park closes at 10,, another shows, that day as Magic Hours,, show 9 - 9 in Green color, which means park has magical hours 3 more nite hours,, which would mean MK open 9 - 12 ,, I am confused, which one might be right ?

I agree! I am going in October too and saw several discrepancies between the Disney site and DIS Park Hours Page. Hmm...which should we believe?

The official times listed on the WDW site says 9am to 10pm. It doesn't show evening magic hours until the following Monday which is the 29th. Plus if I'm not mistaken, the extra evening hours are no longer 3 hours....but 2? Maybe that doesn't start until 2013 but I know I read that it was dropping to 2 hours versus the 3 it has been in the past.

Yea I just checked and it's 2013 that the extra evening hours decrease....so it'll still be 3 hours in October.

I'd go by WDWs site, they are the source.

You would think the Disney site would be accurate, but it's not always updated quickly. These are accurate. Looks like MK is open 9-10 and there are no EMH.

Thanks for the extra site to check times. Looks like WDW has the same times so that date looks pretty accurate Nice to cross reference from time to time, I've always just tried to plan around what the WDW site says even though it is subject to change.

I mainly worry about the party times and stuff like that....thankfully we don't get too wrapped up in the EMH so those wouldn't really mess with our plans too much if they changed.

For future reference, the site I linked is easywdw and here is Josh's explanation as to why the hours don't always match Disney's site. Scroll down to FAQs.

Cool, so it's based on a travel agent site. Makes sense....I would imagine it is a lot harder to update the whole WDW site every time they make a change.
