Early entry question - please help!

[Torontogal]

We are travelling to Disneyland for the 1st time on Aug. 3rd, 2007 and a little confused with regards to the Early Entry thing. I purchased 3 day park hopper tickets and the back of the ticket says we can get 1 early entry visit. However, I have been reading many comments on disboards that I can in fact enjoy more than 1 early entry if I am staying on Disney property. We will be staying at Disneyland Hotel as DVC members.

Can you please confirm this? Can I only enjoy 1 early entry day or more than 1? I was hoping to enjoy the early entry thing on Tuesday and Thursday of our visit.

Anyone know?
Thanks in advance...

Where can I find a confirmed list of what rides at Disneyland have Fast passes? I saw a thread on this board but it seems to be a couple years old. Anyone have a recent list?
Thanks!

This thread is 2 years old and might be the one to which you are referring:

The list of FP rides is still the same as two years ago at both DL and DCA, and all tricks in that thread still work.

The only exception today was an exception in 2005 as well, which is that Haunted Mansion turns on FP machines during the holidays (Oct-Jan).

You are confused because DLR is not very forthcoming about this for some reason. See this thread from the last couple weeks for more info:

You can use EE every day it is offered, which would include Tuesday and Thursday if you are staying at the GCH, DLH or PPH.

Thanks Hydroguy for the details.

I was confused because I called the toll free # to Disneyland and they told me that I can enjoy the EE perk only once during my stay. I have read others saying that each hotel is different and may offer the perk on more than 1 occasion as part of the "magic." In other words, I might be lucky and get vouchers for more than 1 visit?

I just wanted to be sure so I can plan my itinerary.

Thanks for your help!

IMO - Do not ask the CM at 1-800 disney (or any other disney number) about EE. You will likely get conflicting or confusing info.

DO count on HydroGuy's (& DangerMouse & others) info to be accurate (& as up to the minute) as info can me.

If (& that's a big if) DL decides to discontinue their 3 year old (unadvertised) practice of allowing those who stay on property to enjoy EE multiple times, then it will be FRONT PAGE headlines on this board.

I was in your boat a month ago. Stayed at the PP and enjoyed EE twice. Until i checked in, I never received anything that suggested that EE was available more than once....but it was.

Have a great time.
