Do they still offer the Early Morning Hours at Mk where you have to purchase separately from the regular ticket and it includes breakfast? If so are they only on certain days? Hoping to avoid going to the park on those days.
 
There's no need to avoid mornings with Early Morning Magic. It's only a few hundred people, tops. It doesn't have any noticable impact on crowds at all.
 
My plan is to get a Pre Park opening ADR. I prefer to get it on a non Early Morning Magic day.
 
I believe it's currently offered through October, but could be extended.

EMM wouldn't affect your PPO ADR if you do happen to be there on an EMM day.

Not only will it not affect your ADR, it actually is an advantage. If you happen to make your PPO on an EMM day, you are GUARANTEED that it will remain a PPO as they cannot change the hours. If you have a PPO on any other day, they can (and do) change the hours and your PPO becomes a "first hour of park time" ADR.

This is exactly what I was going to say! The best day to have a PPO ADR is on a EMM day! Garaunteed not to let anyone in earlier!!
 
Except that if you have a PPO breakfast on a EMM day you will not be allowed onto 7dmt until 9:00. You will get one ride just before the masses arrive. On a non EMM day you typically start riding 7DMT around 8:45 and can get two or three rides then get to PP more quickly. So I agree with OP it's better on a non EMM day.
 
Yeah, but on an EMM morning there is limited advantage to something like a BOG reservation as they are going to hold those folks right up until very close to 9AM. On a non-EMM morning folks generally report being let on a bit earlier. YMMV.

OP, yes, EMMs have been offered for awhile now, currently bookable through October although I assume new dates will be added at some point. They tend to be offered Sundays and Tuesdays but that's not always the case. Eg, in October they are offered Tuesdays & Thursday.
 
I just did EMM last week and I would actually recommend that you cancel your ADR at BOG and do EMM instead. It was a blast. We rode Pooh once and 7DMT 12 times in a row all before 8:45 am. At 8:45 am we headed over and rode Splash and Thunder Mountain as soon as they opened with minimal wait. By 9:20 am we were at Pinnochio Haus to enjoy a really wonderful buffet breakfast. Peter Pan was closed in the morning for repairs so they let us use our EMM bracelets as anytime FP for that ride until 2 pm. I would do EMM every trip after the great morning we had.

Yeah see this is what I was thinking as well. I am fine planning the PPO ADR and can cancel if they change the Park opening time on us.
