Easter Vacation Plan Help Needed

[TinkOhio]

I really let this one go to the last minute, but does anyone have a good idea if evening extra magic hours will be added during Easter weekend? We haven't stayed at WDW during Easter for a few years, but when we did, they always added evening extra hours to the MK. The calendar I see doesn't show any for between March 29th through April 2nd--anywhere!

I'm also noticing how early the park hours are listed for the Easter season. Any chance they will extend park hours like the used to?

Our 60 day FP mark starts tomorrow. Thanks in advance for any insight offered!

Look at what the hours were last year. That should give you a good idea. I would expect they will extend park hours if they haven’t done so already.

I'm there the week after and feel your pain. The historical hours are posted on a number of sites and they have been extended in previous years. Best guess I am hearing on the update will be 30-45 days out so we'll just have to do our best with FP and adjust closer to.

I am planning based on the current hours posted but am hoping they extend them.

The current hours are ridiculous!

I just did my FP on Wednesday and I just booked according to the hours now but I’m fully expecting the hours to extend for our dates.

The "Extra Magic Hours" are the hours for onsite resort guests, and the evening ones for MK are on Wednesday. They're listed in the park hours for the Wednesday before and after Easter. Unfortunately your trip falls between these.

But as for extending the regular park hours, yeah, Disney is doing less of it, and announcing it later. I assume they will extend park hours some, but last June when we were there, it was much less than in years before. I'm going to be there the week before Easter and hope for some 8:00 am MK opens and maybe even some 7:00 am morning EMH. Wait and see.

Our trip actually falls from March 27th- April 7th, and we are staying onsite. We will take advantage of evening extra magic hours during our trip. I was specifically asking about the 29th-2nd because WDW has extended park hours (not in the form of extra magic hours) to much later than 9pm on our many previous Easter WDW trips. We haven't been there for the last two Easter breaks, so we were surprised to see such early closing times still listed for the MK in particular.
