Extra Magic Hour at California Adventure

[hjgaus]

Has or will anybody be doing the EMH @ CA park this weekend into week? If so is GOTG open during that time and are FP available to pull OR not until park OPENING time? Also what was the wait time for GOTG for EMH?
Thanks in advance for anybody's response!

Have a great day!!

GOTG is likely open since ToT was. FP is not available during EMH/EE/MM.

I was at EMH this morning. GOTG was indeed open, as was FP. Not only was FP available, but FP return times were starting as early as 8:40, even before the park opened for regular hours. I pulled a FP for 8:45 at about 8:02. The standby line, IIRC, was at about three hours by the end of EMH.

Thanks !! This could possibly very helpful indeed!!! Our next VGC reservation is the weekend of June 9th so hopefully it might just SLOW down a little bit by then.
Our other plan was to check back around closing time to see if it dwindles down BUT maybe NOT. We refuse to be waiting NO longer than oh.... 1 hour plus 15 minutes for this ride at ANYTIME!!! Thank goodness for our DVC cuz I don't have to worry about a once in a lifetime experience on GOTG! We WILL have many years to do this ride so for now I will be joining the wait club!!

Thanks again!!!

GotG, RSR and TSMM were all open and distributing FP during EMH this morning.

Was there a wait to get the GOTG fp first?

My group had one person in the fp line and the rest in the standby line and we had to let others go ahead to wait for the person in the fp line. Though, he didn't immediately head there. We got in line at 8:04.

How was the ride? I can't wait!

I didn't ride. A drop with only a little seatbelt holding me in gives me too much anxiety to enjoy it. Give me a shoulder harness or at least a nice sturdy lap bar, and I'm golden. No restraint or minimal restraint, and no thank you! I was in line to try and go through the que then escape via the chicken door but they wouldn't let me because I also had our less than 40" 3yr old. My dh loved it, though!
