EMH or not?

[PrincessAnnabell]

Do you think the extra early magic hours are worth it? We have non park hopper tickets and we are trying to decide if the parks will be busier on EMH days. If it is, then what is more important to you, less crowds and regular hours or more crowds and extra hours? Help us decide please.

We did morning EMH last June, and got SO much done! By 10:30 am, we had done all of Fantasyland and moved on to the rest of the park! We had similar experiences at DHS and AK morning EMH. We attended two evening EMH. The one at Epcot wasn't too badly crowded. However, evening EMH at MK on Friday night? NEVER again!! Luckily, my kids get up in the morning pretty easily, so we hit the parks early!

We tried both, going EMH and non-EMH in the morning. We did seem to get more done in the morning's with EMH.

DizneeMommy-We tried evening EMH at MK and it was packed until about 1:00am and then it cleared out, but we whimped out by that time and got back on the bus.

That's what happened with us! It was our last night, so we thought we'd really go all out. It was great during the parade and Wishes, but then the floodgates opened!!
We ended up washing out about midnight--the kids were worn out! (Mom? Never! )

I've only done the EMH mornings. The night ones seem to be difficult to do if you want to be up early for the next day. JMHO

ITA. We love the morning EMH, one of the BEST benefits of staying onsite! We do soo much before the crowds arrive, even during easter week. Its totally worth it!

We've stayed until 1am a couple of times but with the morning EMHs, we really didn't have to unless we wanted to do something for a 3rd or 4th time.
