EMH in Sept.- two questions.

[crazymomof4]

#1- Where can I find what parks are designated for EMH in Sept.?

#2- Is it worth it to go to EMH parks in Sept or will the crowds be so much higher in those parks that it would be more worthwhile to avoid them?

I'm trying to complete my itinerary soon bc. I can start making my PS's on 6/15.

The new EMH schedule is so changeable it is really hard to predict this. I don't think we'll see September EMH's announced until July.

I still love the morning EMH's. We arrive early to get in line near the front and really are able to make good use of that hour. The evening EMH's at Mk and Epcot were not worth it for us. We enjoyed the evening emh at MGM.

Go ahead and plan based on the emh days in August as far as days of the week go, make your PS's then you can change them later on if you need to. That is what I have done for my early september trip!

It's a planning nightmare, I think they just like messin' with us OCD planners

Ha Ha. I like that last line! So true! Sometimes when there are too many factors influencing a planning decision I get "frozen"..... not knowing which is the right way to go. Thanks for the tips. I'm going to follow your lead. Are the emh days for August posted on the WDW website already? Why were the evening hours not worth it for you? I'm thinking my 2 littlest ones will be too tapped out to stay that late.

The parks attendence is so light you don't need it. Now the morning EMH are the same year round and They usually don't have night hours unless something changes this year.

2. In Sept the only slightly crowdedparks are the EMH park of the day.

MK and Epcot were so crowded during evening emh you couldn't breathe, most certainly couldn't get on the rides either. MGM however was mostly empty, only a 15 minute wait for anything, and most of the time it was only about 5-10 minutes. Yes, if you go to the hours on the disney site for june there are links on the june calender for emh hours, click there then the emh's for august are further down that page.

Something has changed this year. Evening EMH's are the standard now.

Thanks! I truly don't know how people plan a WDW trip w/o the DISboards!!! I feel sorry for them! Everyone here is so helpful and I learned so much before our 2003 trip and I'm continuing to learn.

Loved the OCD planners crack My family has taken to calling me some nice (and not so nice) names because of my obsession with planning. But hey, when we went last in 1999 there wasn't a whole lot that we didn't get to do because of my neurotic ways. I will make the most of the current opening times info.. but it is driving me nuts!

Well, I am the offical Disney tourism department in my office. I have now planned 6 different trips and made disney possible for people who were too intimidated by it to do it themselves.

So, I have turned my OC(P)D (Obsessive Compulsive Planning Disorder according to my dh) into a hobby. He loves it when I'm obsessing over someone else's trip because it means I'm not spending his money

He wanted to plan our anniversary trip but about a week into it he knew he was in over his head, so now, I'm planning and he's just standing on the side nodding yes to everything I'm doing

Yup, that's us too. The downside to being the official planner of the family vacations is that if something goes wrong, all eyes turn to you and you take the blame...............just more incentive to plan everything PERFECTLY!!!!!
