July park hours have been updated

[TinkFan74]

I just checked the MDE app and the hours have been updated, most nights that MK is only open until 11pm and not midnight

From what I saw, most of the MK nights that had a 10 PM close now have an 11 PM close.

Typhoon Lagoon is now 9am - 7pm and Blizzard Beach is 10am to 8pm on the days we are going.

They also added a random 8am opening during my week. Figures its on the one day I had booked a pre-park opening breakfast which is no longer PPO.

DHS is closing at 9 pm most nights and no Star Wars fireworks.

DHS is closing at 9 pm most nights and no Star Wars fireworks.

Do we think this is final? I thought the star works fireworks were sticking around. Are they just not ready to announce times yet?

I hope its preliminary. I noticed that on dates the park closes at 9:30 pm that Fantasmic is at 9 and the Star Wars fireworks are at 9:15 pm. I wonder if they are waiting for feedback on making people choose one or the other before they roll out the final schedule. Very disappointed in this year's operating hours.

July 3 they changed MK to a 1AM closing with EMH from 1am-3am though.

So the MK hours during July have been extended and the Wishes time changed for all except one week. Why would that one week have different Wishes/MSEP hours? If it were updated until then..., but it's updated before and after then! What
I expect SWaGS to show up at HS, but what's up with one week surrounded by Wishes/MSEP times different from that one week in the middle of the month?

 

[Davis2902]

My PPO to MK is now useless. The whole week of July 25 has been changed to 8am. Except for Tuesday which is EMM.

 

[NeuroCindy]

Sigh. The main evening I'm in the MK (Saturday 7/23) is still a 10pm close.

Yup....same here.

I don't get it....and in the summer. What's up with this??? Does anyone have any thoughts as to the reasoning behind this?

 

[punkin]

Yup....same here.

Mine is still good since MK is still listed opening at 9 on July 7th. I figure they'll change it the night before just to screw me over.

I just looked at Hollywood Studios for the day we are there, July 9th, and it shows F! at 9:00 with Star Wars fireworks at 9:15pm. It is 'normal' for them to overlap like that? I know people frown on comparing to previous events but just for a point of reference, last summer at that same time we were able to see both F! and the Frozen fireworks.

Ditto getting ready to dump our BOG PPO rez shortly.

No, I don't believe the shows overlapped, you could see both shows. I have read recent reports of problems
when the Fantasmic crowd exits and joins the fireworks crowd, not sure if this has anything to do with it, but it's a possibility.

 

[kj2mom]

Thanks, I will have to keep my eye on the times guide. Last year there were two F! so we watched the fireworks first then went to F!. The CMs kept the people exiting the first F! moving pretty well, they didn't try to join in where we were but I can totally see it happening.

Anyone??
Help! With all the changes, questions, and last minute schedules; planning for WDW has gone from anticipatory fun, to frustrating stress-fest... I'm so close to a soap-box-a-palooza
(I'm trusting SWaGS to reappear in the schedule, though a time for that would be good...)
Is Wishes/MSEP time July 17-23 a glitch, an oversight, likely to change, or is there some reason behind one week in July being different? I really need some insight to help firm up plans for some friends and I can't be the only one!

I know, right? I thought about sending an email to Disney, but I'm sure I would get some sort of lame excuse. Planning has been painful. Now we have the 9pm Wishes mystery week. Really Disney????
