Early park opening?

[ppan77]

Are parks opening an hour earlier than announced right now? Holiday hours?

I'd like to know as well. Trying to figure out when to arrive for real rope drop based on when they'll actually let guests in vs the published park open times.

Reading the Here Now (last to first) thread is your best bet in finding out what is going on right before your trip. A quick look right now should show you that there is no guarantee about when parking lots, parks or rides are opening before stated time. To me, based on what Disney has said earlier, it looks like Disney is intentionally keeping real opening times inconsistent so that it will help ease the lines in some manner.

From reports over the last many weeks it looks like 45 mins early is common. Generally at least 30 mins.

Possibly they could go closer to 1 hour early open for the crazy busy holiday week but that’s probably the max.
