Hours on Official Site Not Available

[grinningghost]

I've been trying to pull up the hours on the official site and keep getting a message saying they're not available yet. Any chance they're being updated? Maybe even lengthened?

I hope you are right! What do you think this might mean? Future World open until 7:00 PM again? The Magic Kingdom having a steady closing time, as opposed to the roller coaster it's on now? (10 PM, then 7 PM, then 8:30 PM, then 7:30 PM, etc.)

Keep watching that site!

You bet I'm watching it. Oh please magic pixies - just one night of MK open until 11 and maybe one night of MGM open until 10!

They are back up now. I didnt notice any changes, or at least none that affect our plans.
Darn it! Why cant they have FITS on Friday like they did last year? Im guessing Fantasmic will be mobbed on Friday since there is none on Saturday.

I'm having a hard time understanding the whole early Friday night thing myself. I'm expecting serious big crowds for the Saturday 8/23 Spectro too. We'll have to stake out a good spot early. We'll keep crossing our fingers here Camcolt. DD and her friend are almost thrilled by the early hours - they plan on spending LOTS of time at DQ. I'm not a DQ person, but I will be making a couple cheesecake stops there anyway.

LOL, grinningghost! Thats the spirit!
The early hours in general dont bother me too much since we are morning people and if the kids are out too late the mornings will be tough, but (as Ive said a million times already) , the Friday of a holiday weekend will most likely be busy and I cant see them closing MK at 7:00 then. Even last year when the hours were probably at the shortest theve ever been, they were open until 8:30 that Friday with FITS. It makes sense for a holdiay weekend. I dont know, there must be some method behind this madness that we just arent getting. Oh well, we will go and still have fun! I just wish I could end my trip in MK like we have the past few times, but it looks like we will end in at MGM with Fantasmic. Not a bad second choice.

Am I missing something? What month are you talking about? Then someone is mentioning a holiday weekend. But which holiday weekend?

LadyLt, we are talking about the end of August...Labor Day weekend.
