Trying to plan park days for our upcoming drip. Would like to include this.

It looks like from current disney calandar it is booking a few months out, either on Sun/Tue or Tue/Thu depending on the week. Is this the usual schedule or is it variable? I know it used to be offered on Sat. Our trip is in April.

How hard is it to book? Do I need to be vigilant and book right away?

Anything other than 7DMT, PPF, WTP operating. ?Carrousel.

Was thinking about riding multiple times for each ride, then getting in line for Princess fairytale hall at 8:50, then hitting a few of VOLM/SW/HM, before returning for a late breakfast at Pinnochio House 9:45am-10am. (?how long do they keep breakfast open ,?till 10:30)

Then plan FPs for three of JC/PoC/Splash/BTMR for 10am/11am/12pm? Too ambitious? make them a little later?

Thanks for any advice.

1. EMM days can change.
2. Not usually difficult.
3. Those are the attractions.
4. That is the standard procedure of the overwhelming number of the EMM guests.
5. Hmmm. Maybe.
6. Breakfast stops SERVING at 10AM. (Guests can finish eating after that time, of course.)
7. If that's what you want to do, you can do so.
I'd do BTM/Splash first (no FP needed,) as they generally don't start getting busy until after about
10:30-ish.

We did EMM two sundays ago. They had the carrousel open and small world but that was because mine train wasn't up until about 815. We still got 2 rides each on Peter Pan and Pooh and then five straight rides on Mine train. We headed to splash mountain and rode that and probably could have squeezed in big thunder but didn't want to have to rush back. We made it to breakfast by 945. YMMV, but they didn't stop serving until 1015 or so the day we were there. I thought it was great and well worth the cost. If you can do it I highly recommend.
 
Thanks for replies. As I'll have to book other dining reservations and plan park days by October, I'll have to make some guesses on the Morning magic Hour schedule for April 2018. Ideally we'll be at MK Sun & Thu. Chances one of those days will have it? (Robo I know it's a guess, don't worry I won't hold you to it)
 

We did EMM about three weeks ago. PP was down so they had IASW and the carousel open instead. Told us we'd have FP on PP until noon which we did get to use. We chose to go down to Frontierland at rope drop and do Big Thunder and Splash. There was a big delay at Splash so we were 10 minutes late for the buffet but they were nice enough to let us in.
